As it is the autumnal equinox, we thought it would be a nice idea to show why we at Schwank love this season. Here are our top 10 reasons why autumn is truly the best time of the year.

1. 10 reasons
to love
autumn

2. As the sun sets on
summer, we should
relish the thought of
autumn. Here are 10
reasons why.

3. Apples
Best when you pick them
yourself, especially from trees
stumbled upon during country
walks.

4. Crunching leaves

Who doesn’t love the sound of leaves crunching
underfoot in the crisp morning air?

5. Nuts
Whether you are watching
squirrels collect acorns, picking
walnuts for yourself or cracking
brazils by the fire – nuts are an
essential ingredient for a
wonderful autumn.

6. Pumpkins
Carved and glowing, these orange lanterns are fun
and spooky at the same time.

7. Hot chocolate
al fresco
Sitting outside a café, wrapped in
coat and scarf, how could anyone
drink anything else?

8. Scrabble
As the evenings draw in, gather the family round
the table for this perennial favourite.

9. Freshly baked
pies
You get back from your walk on a
Sunday morning and as well as
the smell of the roast, you can
pick out the sweet aroma of apple
pie baking. Could anything be
better?

10. Orange, cinnamon
& cloves
Nothing says autumn like these olfactory delights

11. Bonfire night
Remember. Remember.
The bonfire, the fireworks, the
ooh-ing and ahh-ing and the
sound of children laughing. It’s
always a lovely occasion.

12. Open fires
Get the logs in and fill the coal scuttle – it’s time to
settle down in front of the fire.

13. Autumn is truly
wonderful and we hope
you enjoy this most
colourful, fragrant and
delicious of seasons.
