I love the fall sea­son. I love fall dec­o­ra­tions, and fall scents, and how the weather starts to change (at least a little—in San Diego, any­way). I’ve been out fall shop­ping the past few days and got a few cute, new things for our apart­ment to get into the sea­son. I also took out my fall place­mats and […]
