With the fall season just around the corner, it’s time to deck out your house with cinnamon. The beloved spice embodies the autumn season, filling your nostrils with the nostalgic scent we all adore. Whether it’s making cinnamon rolls or sprinkling cinnamon on top of your coffee, the spice brings warmth and comfort into everything it touches. Did you know that cinnamon also has great health benefits? It boosts your metabolism and has antioxidant properties. This autumn, don’t forget to add the magic of cinnamon to your fall recipes!

If you are looking for the perfect dessert when you are craving something sour and tangy, tart frozen yogurt is the way to go. The exquisite, pungent flavors of the frozen yogurt work well with chocolate, fruit, and candy, allowing any indecisive person to choose the easy option of getting every topping available. My personal favorite tart frozen yogurt comes from Easy Breezy, followed by Yogurtland, but I also enjoy making it at home. Even though the summer is winding down and the weather is cooling off, tart frozen yogurt is still a great midday or nighttime sweet!

If you are anything like me, you love nothing more than to cozy up on your couch and watch a good fall comfort show with a warm apple cider in hand and a cool fall breeze making its way through an open window. The one show that will help speed along the fall process is a classic that most know and love, Gilmore Girls. Not only does Gilmore Girls provide the ideal autumn vibes for any kind of day, but it is also the perfect show to have on in the background while you channel your inner Chilton student and do that English homework that you have put off three times. Gilmore Girls is the ultimate fall show that you need to add to your lineup.

If you’re looking for some new tasty treats for the fall season, it’s time to take another trip to Trader Joe’s. I recently had the privilege of visiting this oasis and discovered Joe’s new apple cider donuts. With this new offering, Joe has brilliantly combined two traditional fall favorites — old fashioned donuts and cozy apple cider — into one delicious treat. With a fresh apple tasting donut, coated in a layer of cinnamon sugar, Trader Joe’s has created a new staple for your pantry this season. This donut is perfect for a late night study snack or as a quick burst of sugar in the morning. Grab a pack of these treats, put on a sweater, and enjoy a beautiful autumn day!

If you’re looking for the perfect album to add to your playlist, The Secret of Us should be your top choice. Released on Jun. 21, singer-songwriter Gracie Abrams curated an album close to perfection. With upbeat tunes like Close To You and Risk, to deep emotional songs such as Free Now and Good Luck Charlie, this album is versatile; you can listen to it while driving to the beach on a sunny day or crying in your bed late at night. As an ode to her previous single I Miss you, I’m Sorry, Abrams added I Love You, I’m Sorry to the album, which quickly began trending all over social media and climbed to the top of most fans’ favorite songs list. If you are searching to expand your musical horizons, try listening to The Secret of Us. I promise it will not disappoint.
