autumnal - adj//

of, occurring in, or characteristic of autumn

My kids will tell you, I love this word.  I love autumnal foods like pumpkin, butternut squash, soups and cider.  I love autumnal scenery, the changing of the leaves on the trees and early morning frost.  And I really love autumnal color and design.  Cranberry red, harvest gold, burnt orange and mossy green.  Pumpkins, gourds and leaves mixed with bronze and copper metals, dark rustic wooden antiques.  Best of all, its fireplace season!  Whether your fireplace is rustic wood burning or contemporary  gas, nothing beats a warming fire.  Its all autumnal to me.
