I'm Amy from
Interpret As You May. I currently live in Texas and graduated from (and now work for) Texas A&M University. I married my high school sweetheart over 3 years ago, and am really happy to write here today?
Today I wanted write about my Top 3 favorite things about Texas in the Fall!
***
#1: Festivals
I grew up in New Braunfels, TX, which features a prominent "ode to sausage!" (and beer) called
Wurstfest. My grandparents have been volunteering since the 70's, my mom went with her friends in high school & I haven't missed a year since middle school.
#2: Football
Of course living in a football town, college football totally rules the weekend around here. It's a sight to see an extra 50,000 people pour into town, taking over restaurants and parking spots and the roads! Game day in College Station is electric & it's hard to avoid the excitement.
#3: Chili
Ah, chili.
Texas chili. All meat, no beans. Tomato rich, and super spicy. That's my preference. My husband made our first pot of the season a week ago, and I was just reminded of how awesome fall is. You can't really beat a good pot of chili, a good beer & some homemade cornbread.

I know these aren't specific to Texas, but I'm prone to believe we do it a little bit better here ;)
Where are you from? And what's your favorite part of fall there?
and if it's apple picking, I'm jealous .... the closest apple picking farm is 5+ hours away!
Thanks Leeann for letting me guest post ? I hope you guys enjoyed it & will come
