Signs You're Obsessed With Fall Gallery
Fall is the best season. Whether you call it fall or autumn or just that time of year when everything is just right, I think we can all agree on that. But some of us love fall more than others. While the average person will enjoy a nice pumpkin spice latte and a walk in the park as the trees change colors, others live and breathe all things fall. Yes, fall can be a complete and total obsession.
If you break out your sweaters the second September rolls around, if you think of apple picking as a competitive sport, and if you live for football season and tailgating... you just might be a little obsessed with fall.
If you do all that and spend months prepping your Halloween costume, deck your halls with pumpkins and cinnamon-scented candles, and watch a new horror film every night, you might be totally obsessed with fall. Does that sound at all like you? If so, chances are you live these other signs you're obsessed with fall, too.
Apple Picking Is Your Favorite Sport
Some people think picking your own apples is a weird way to spend a Saturday afternoon, but you know it's insanely satisfying. Plus, freshly-picked apples make the best apple pie.
Halloween Is Your Favorite Holiday
You know that Halloween is way, way better than Christmas. You start planning and making your costume months in advance, have the most elaborate haunted house on the block and only hand out the best Halloween candy.
Layering Pumps You Up
Most people dread the day when they have to break out their cardigans, scarves, socks, and light jackets. But you know layering only adds to your fall style.
Pumpkins Are Your Favorite Décor Motif
You have pumpkin mugs for your pumpkin spice coffee, pumpkin cookie jars for your pumpkin cookies and pumpkin-shaped frames for your pumpkin patch photos. You know the secret to great fall home décor is this iconic orange gourd.
Pie Is a Major Food Group in Your Eyes
Sure, pie can be eaten at any time of the year, but it's really autumn's dessert. Apple pie, pumpkin pie, sweet potato pie — you know it's all for fall.
Pumpkin Spice Is Your Favorite Flavor
You don't just drink pumpkin spice lattes — for you PSL is life. And it goes beyond a basic latte. You'll eat pumpkin spice muffins, pumpkin spice ravioli and pumpkin spice soup. Heck, you know practically every pumpkin spice product in existence.
September 22 Should Be a National Holiday, in Your Opinion
The autumnal equinox, better known as the first day of fall, means all those wonderful fall things are back. Cool weather, long, cozy nights and that certain fall smell that only comes during this time of year are worth celebrating in your opinion.
You Binge-Watch Horror Movies All Season Long
Your favorite genre of movie is definitely horror. You look forward to the new frights every year and love to rewatch classic horror films like "Halloween," "Carrie" and "Nightmare on Elm Street."
You Have More Boots Than Sandals
Sandals are kind of gross when you think about it; your feet are so close to the ground. Boots are the ultimate cozy and comfy footwear, and you have several pairs (with fuzzy socks to match).
You Love Pumpkin and Oktoberfest Beers
While some may decry the multiple offerings of the pumpkin beer, you recognize it's far and away the best seasonal brew. You also have mad respect for the malty Oktoberfest beer; nothing goes better with tailgate burgers and sausage.
You Stock Up on Fall-Scented Candles
You head to your nearest Yankee Candle near the end of every summer (which in the retail world is, like, July) and scoop up all the pumpkin, apple, and forest scents you can. A candle that smells like cranberry chutney? Heck yes!
You Think Thanksgiving Deserves More Credit
You get sad when Christmas takes over store shelves during the first week of November. Please. Respect the roasted turkey.
You Wear Sweaters No Matter the Temperature
Once September rolls around, your standard uniform is the sweater. It doesn't matter that it's actually still 84 degrees outside. You're all about that wool life.
Your Favorite Color Is ‘Autumn Leaves’
The rich reds, the illuminating golden shades, and even the crisp brown and orange hues are nature's most serene offerings. You make pilgrimages to go leaf peeping every year and you know the best town for seeing fantastic fall foliage in your state.
You’re Not Sure What You Love More: Football or Tailgating
Your favorite team is back on the field, and that means one thing: It's tailgating time. A great game day can only be improved by beers, brats and buddies. And the truest sign you're obsessed with fall? You know these obsessions are only start of the best things about fall.
