alley ways and pay-phone calls

yay, for fridays and weekends! i went to my favorite coffee shop (and place of work!) Mudpie. they are the only vegan bakery and coffee shop in kansas city. my go-to drink is always a warm, cashew milk latte. treat of choice? this would be either the cheddar herb scone or lemon-coconut bundt cakes, but everything is wonderful here (no bias opnion, i swear! i've been going there since they opened up over a year ago). one, of my many, favorite things about fall is being able to get your coffee drink of choice warm instead of iced. you know when it's fall because of the first day it's cool enough for a hot drink! even though today was a warmer day than we've had in a while in kansas city, i still enjoyed some time with my latte on the patio and some school readings. 
my plans for the weekend have changed a little bit since i've updated. tomorrow i am planning to go to the plaza art fair, with my family, and then later in the evening to the drive-in to watch some new horror films and cuddle up in blankets. i had to go one last time before they were closed for the year. they are the most enjoyable when it gets chilly outside and you can bring warm drinks, jackets/blankets, and not be uncomfortably hot! 

readers, how do you tell when fall begins for you?
