If You and I Had Coffee

If you and I had coffee...

We'd meet up at our favorite coffee shops near the downtown square. I'd order a pumpkin spice latte because 'tis the season. I'd also order an apple cider donut and maybe a pumpkin spice donut. We'd stay for a while and then head out to the newest store that recently opened near the downtown square.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm enjoying our fall break. We have been decluttering the boys' room, and I already got several boxes to donate and a couple of bags to throw away. It still baffles me how much we can accumulate. The next room I plan to declutter is my closet. I'm both dreading and excited about this.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I celebrated the first day of fall by getting a pumpkin spice latte. Later that day, we went to the fair. We all had a great time. The boys had fun getting on some rides. We also bought fried Oreos, and they were so delicious. Going to the fair is one of our favorite fall activities, and I hope we get to go to a few fall festivals this season.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I have so many hopes for fall. I want to bake all the fall goods. I want to make apple cider donuts, a pumpkin spice banana bread, caramel apple nachos, and all the s'mores. I want to watch all the fall movies and read all the fall books. I want to buy the coziest sweater I can find. I want to go to fall festivals and other local events. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm bursting with creative energy. I've finished going through a bunch of my art and memory-keeping supplies again, as it's now a new season. Going through my older scrapbooking and memory-keeping supplies definitely helped inspire me. Current events, books, music, newsletters, and other random things have given me so many ideas for things I'd like to create and document. This season, I hope to break out of the creative rut that has been plaguing me for the past few months. It's been frustrating to want to create, but the moment I open a sketchbook, I get stuck on whether I should use that particular one or a different one. And then I end up not making anything at all.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm so glad we were able to meet up. As always, meeting up for this little coffee chat is one of my favorite monthly highlights. The next time we meet, we'll be in the thick of autumn, and I can't wait to catch up on everything. I hope you enjoy the rest of the month and have a great time celebrating the arrival of fall. 

What would you tell me?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...
