Fall Into Fun: A ‘Pluck-It’ List 

November invites us to slow down and savor the season. A bucket list isn’t just about checking off activities. It is a gentle nudge to be intentional with our time. As the days grow shorter and the holidays approach, it’s easy to get swept up in obligations. A simple, seasonal bucket list helps us reconnect with what brings joy, warmth, and meaning. Whether it’s cozying up with loved ones or trying something new, these small moments can make the month feel richer and more memorable.

• Host a gratitude gathering. Invite a few friends or family members for a casual evening where everyone shares what they’re thankful for. Add warm drinks, candlelight, and maybe a gratitude jar to keep the spirit going.

• Take a scenic fall walk. Find a local trail or park and soak in the last of the autumn colors. Bonus points if you bring a thermos of cider or snap a few leaf-crunching pics.

• Try a cozy recipe challenge. Pick one new comfort food recipe, like butternut squash soup, apple crisp, or homemade bread, and make it from scratch. Share your creation with someone or post your masterpiece.

• Create a DIY fall craft or decor. Think leaf garlands, pinecone centerpieces, or even a handmade “thankful” banner. It’s a great way to add seasonal charm to your space and unwind creatively.

• Do a random act of kindness. Whether it’s writing a heartfelt note, donating to a food drive, or buying coffee for the person behind you — November is perfect for spreading warmth.
