30 Ways to Celebrate September
Happy September! If you’ve been following along you know I absolutely love lists, and I typically
post a fall to-do list (don’t worry, it’s coming). After my best friend passed away in March this year
it’s really had me focused on the now, and that’s why I decided that I want to start a new monthly
series. This series will give you 30 (or 31) ways to celebrate each month. Starting with my favorite
time of the year… fall! Let me know if there is anything that you think I should add to the September
list.
1. Visit a cider mill. Yates is my absolute favorite I love a cup of hot cider with a plain donut or
molasses cookie.
2. Head to the farmers market before the season is over and enjoy sweet corn, peaches,
watermelon and more.
