In preparation for Wednesday’s Autumnal Equinox, I wanted to put pen to paper for this year’s Fall Bucket List.

1. Run a 5K. Aggressive, I know but I’ve completed a few in the past and think the time has come to dust off the old running shoes {or buy new ones}.
2. Bake a loaf of bread. Would you believe I’ve never done this? A colleague of mine took a bread making class during her summer vacation, which has totally inspired me. Any beginner recipe suggestions?
3. Binge Watch. With sunsets coming earlier, I have an excuse to stay inside and watch a little tv. And after watching the Emmy’s last night, I think I have two worthy contenders: Olive Kitteridge and Transparent. What do you think?
4. Host a Pot-Luck. An oldie but goodie from a past bucket list  that never did get checked off the list. Thinking 2015 is the year to make this happen!
5. Plan a Weekend Getaway. One of my summer bucket list items was to explore the Catskills. Check! This fall, I’d like to explore another new town. The research has begun but if you have any ideas, do let me know.

Speaking of my summer bucket list, I am humbled to report that I didn’t accomplish as much as I’d hoped. We did take a hot air balloon ride, though which may just be one of the highlights of my summer. I guess I have Harry Potter and the Wellfleet drive-in to look forward to next summer!
