Fall Traditions

The return of chilly weather typically marks the return of everyone's favorite go-to autumn traditions. Pumpkin spice lattes, cozy movie nights (duh! It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!), making/eating baked treats...they're all rad options, of course. 
My personal fave, however, is reading Wuthering Heights. And on a rainy day like today, it's perfect. For some reason, people always mistake this book for a romance (and to you people I say, are you f-ing crazy??). In my mind, it's always been a horror story. Tumultuous weather, brutal violence, nightmares, ghosts. It's totally perfect for easing me into the Halloween spirit. 





I can never seem to read in absolute silence, though, so I always need some tunes in the background. "Still Life" by The Horrors fit the mood of today so well to me that I thought I'd share with you! 



P.S. Anybody else think this song would feel right at home in a John Hughes movie? I'm totally gettin' that vibe, guys.

What are your favorite fall traditions?
