The Mellow Mallow: Fall Wishlist

It is officially fall!! Even though we have plenty of warm days left in Texas, the 100 degree days are over...for now. Some of my favorite things about fall are wearing boots, layering clothes, finally being able to see some rain, pumpkins, apples and changing the decor around the house. It's so hot in the summer that we put any home projects on hiatus until the weather starts cooling down a little. Here are a few things I want for this new season.

1. A garden in the backyard. I really need to start prepping a garden bed and getting some new flowers, veggies & herbs to plant in the ground. Yard work is something I am not used to, but now that we have our house I am trying to learn as much as I can about it.

Remodeling, decorating, and more ∨

Consider a versatile murphy bed when looking for guest beds design, find the perfect desk chair, and work with a contractor in your area to create a fun yet functional home office.
Work with a home decorator when choosing area rug designs or hanging a new window blind in your home.

Currently I have a nice little herb garden with sage, basil, oregano, chives, parsley, rosemary and thyme. I have tried growing tomatoes and strawberries, but the plants never really flourished. My mom just got me a little Mexican Lime tree for my patio. I can't wait to see all of the little limes grow!

2. A great pair of boots. Ok, a couple great pairs of boots. Here are a few I would like to have.

3. A new jacket. Jackets are only needed for a few Months out of the Year, but it is always nice to have a comfy one on hand. My closet is filled with cardigans right now, and a jacket is a must have for fall.

4. Some new cookbooks. I love cookbooks. I am not sure why I like cookbooks so much since you can find almost anything on the internet these days, but I always enjoy getting a new cookbook that I can read through and try recipes from. Here are a few I am interested in.

5. More workout clothes. Trying to keep working out and once my Insanity is over I would like to run and bike more. The weather in fall is perfect for exercising outside. I can't wait!!!
