The season of pumpkin patch dates, Disney Halloween movies and warm apple cider is finally here. Yep, you guessed it— it's fall. Although if we're being honest, you probably didn't have to do much guessing, since a lot of people on social media have been sharing the fall season's arrival.
Autumn is upon us once again, and it's that time of year where basically every food item in existence is somehow caramel apple or pumpkin flavored. Fall lends itself to a cornucopia (see what I did there?) of scrumptious seasonal foods.
