A cozy fall playlist for winding, leaf-filled drives and nights hunkered down under a big ass quilt

When I think of the big ol’ concept of nostalgia, what immediately comes to mind is those lazy weekend days when I was small — where I’d spend hours snuggled under the biggest puddle of blankets I could find, armed with a book so delicious I never wanted it to end (with Gilmore Girls playing gently in the background — those “la la las” were the soundtrack to my youth).

Nothing feels more inherently autumnal to me than these types of nights, where you have nothing to do and nowhere to be and you feel all the more grateful for it. I’m an indoor cat at heart. This playlist is for those exact evenings. Plus winding drives with a giant coffee, lazily meandering past swaths of richly tinted trees, where the whole world looks burnished and glowing. Damn, there’s nothing like this season.
