Autumn Tag


Hello, I thought that today I would take part in the Autumn tag so you can all get to know me a little better, I took part in this on my old blog many years back and a lot has changed since. Autumn has to be my favourite season with so much change and the excitement for Christmas not far ahead.

1. What signifies the start of Autumn for you?
I know Autumn starts at the end of September but for me its the first of November when it starts to officially feel like Autumn, it all of the sudden feels different and colder after Halloween and especially when the clocks go back too.

2. What is your favourite Autumn scent?
My favourite autumn scents are either Orange or berries, they always make the house smell so warm and toasty in wax melt form and I love them in a hand cream or even a bubble bath scent too around this time of year..

3. What is your favourite Autumn colour?
My favourite Autumn colour has to be the burnt orange for the leaves but burgundy colour for clothing, the are just very warming colours and can be seen everywhere. 

4. What is your favourite Autumn drink?
It had to be any type of hot chocolate with marshmallows and whipped cream or a gingerbread latte, they are just so warming and I love the festive flavours.

5. What TV show, new or old, are you looking forward to this Autumn?
We don't really have anything special to watch over Autumn, we just find programmes that we enjoy together and watch them, or I fall asleep and have to catch up the next day.

6. What is your favourite Autumn fashion trend?
It has to be cosy jumpers/Cardigans for day time and my fluffy pajamas for the evenings. Anything to keep you warm really and something that you can wrap up in. 

7. What is your favourite frugal Autumn activity?
I think this year is a good one for this with the cost of living on everyone's mind, ours are leaf garland with the girls, autumn walks, and hot chocolates when we get home with whipped cream and marshmallows.

8. What is your favourite makeup look come Autumnal weather? 
I don't wear makeup that often but I do love a darker lip for Autumn and a darker eye shadow shade too. The lipstick I go for is the Nyx soft matte lip cream in the shade Cannes or Rome

I hope that you enjoyed finding out a bit more about me, are there any questions you feel would work well in the Autumn tag that aren't there?

    I love autumn and the colours surrounding it. Nothing beats a walk in the park and savouring all the colours and followed by hot chocolate and cookies. I often take a flask with me to the park. (Nayna from citrusspice)

      I love taking hot chocolate with us on our walks, it makes them a little more fun for the kids.

    I think Autumn is my favourite season too, nothing beats curling up with a good book next to the log burner.

      Curling up in my pjs with a book is the best, especially when its raining outside and you have no where to go.

Cottage pie recipe

I have recently started making my own Cottage pie with a recipe that I have tweeted to work four our fussy family. I find that a cottage pie is such an Autumn/Winter staple as it feeling like such a warm, hearty meal, one that is a proper comfort meal.  I recently started making the meal and found that I didn't have a packet mix in so decided to find a recipe to try out, the first one I found sounded good but I changed it slightly to fit our family, Lils isn't keen on fresh onion ad none of us like celery.
