Let's be real, pumpkin spice is overrated.

11 Reasons Apple Is The Superior Fall Flavor
Liz West

It's a constant fall debate - apple or pumpkin? Apple will clearly always be the best, and here are a few reasons why.

1. First of all, apple cider exists

Whether it's hot or cold, cider is literally the best beverage to grace this Earth.

2. You can get it fresh at a cider mill

Honestly, who doesn't love going to a cider mill on a chilly October day? Those days are only made better by the homemade apple cider and donuts.

3. It goes better with donuts

Try to tell me a cinnamon sugar tastes just as good without a glass of apple cider. It's just not possible.

4. You can eat just an apple

Have you ever tried eating a pumpkin? I'm sure you haven't. An apple, on the other hand, tastes just fine without any of the seasonal additions like caramel or cinnamon. However, those things do add to the fun - especially during this time of year!

5. It's healthier

I know I'm not the only one who's been thinking about eating better given the approaching holidays. Apples are obviously a fruit, and they're full of all sorts of antioxidants and fiber.

6. You can make so many things!

Apple pie, caramel apples, and so much more!

7. Like apple chips

An easy, healthy option if you're bored of eating an entire apple

8. Or apple butter

Possibly the best thing to ever put on toast

9. Or even a mini pie using the entire apple

This one works whether you're looking to cut back on carbs or just too busy to cut up an entire apple

10. Of course, apple pie will always be a classic

Who can turn down a slice of apple pie?

11. Apple smells AND tastes better

Apple will always be superior to pumpkin in every way.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
