Lifestyle | 7 Fun Date Ideas for Fall

As mentioned in my previous post, my favourite time of the year is definitely Fall. I just love how beautiful the scenery is, how it's not too hot but not too cold, and how I can wear all the over-sized knitwear that has been stored in the back of my closet all summer. 

Since my boyfriend works a very hectic schedule, it's hard to fit in any time for the two of us to spend together, so I thought I'd try to come up with a few simple date ideas that we could enjoy this season. 

7 Fall Date Ideas:

• Grab a pumpkin spice latte and a freshly baked pumpkin muffin and go for a hike. There's always lots of trails around to explore and it's a great way to enjoy the colourful leaves.

• Head to a Farmer's Market and buy a few gourds and homemade crafts to decorate your home. Don't forget to grab a hot apple cider to sip on while you walk around!

• Curl up on the couch and watch TV. Lots of new series start in the Fall, so find one that you both like and watch it together. This can then become a weekly thing!

• Carve pumpkins! Try coming up with a creative idea instead of the typical scary face. You could each carve your own, or work on one together. 

• Enjoy a meal at an outdoor cafe before it gets too cold to sit outside. Order butternut squash or sweet potato soup to keep you warm and a pumpkin ale to stick to the Autumn theme. 

• Pick some apples at a local orchard or buy some at the Farmer's Market and spend an afternoon baking a home-made apple pie. Then why not make it a romantic night by sitting on a blanket under the stars and sharing your pie by candlelight. 

• If you're into sports, then go to a football or hockey game. Or, if you can't afford it, buy a six-pack, order in some pizza and wings, and just enjoy a relaxing evening at home watching the game on your big screen.
