Every year we have Oktoberfest dinner. Sausages, tangy cabbage, German potatoes pancakes topped with sour cream and homemade cinnamony applesauce! The house smells like our own warm, cosy inviting Bavarian kitchen, then we know it is truly fall!

OMG..I love fall. Its my fav season. Not sure why when the leaves are actually falling away. But they are so beautiful in New England. I know its fall when I smell burning leaves outside. Also I am reminded of fall when I smell pumkin or cinnamon candles or cooking.

As I’m typically English, you say fall, but we say autumn lol. The air here can be damp this time of year.
So the smell that reminds me of autumn in the UK is damp leaves burning on the bonfire.
