September is a month of changes, and whether or not you’re typically open to change, this year might have you feeling more ready for it than ever. This issue of American Lifestyle magazine explores ways to help you embrace change, including a road trip guide, strategies for checking in on your financial health, a look at a classic Victorian-style home’s modern transformation, and recipes to jazz up one of the most common breakfast foods.

If you didn’t get to travel as much this year as you’d like, you’re not alone. But even if your summer was spent at home, there’s no reason you can’t still enjoy a little getaway in the fall, instead. These road trip ideas through small-town America are just what you need.

And to make sure you can make the most of your travel prospects next year (or anything you have planned) a fall financial checklist is here to help you learn ways to improve your savings—just in time for busy holiday shopping.

Fall can also bring big changes for your home, and if you’re looking for a little inspiration, designer Liliane Hart has plenty to offer. Her renovation of a Victorian-style home in the Hamptons proves that what’s old can become new (and beautiful) again.

Speaking of old, toast is a tried-and-true favorite when it comes to breakfast, but it’s not often considered the most exciting food on the table. These recipes for flavorful toasts, including toast topped with almond butter and pears and a chocolate-hazelnut and bacon toast, are proof that breakfast can be quick and delicious.

No matter what changes this season brings, may they always leave you feeling hopeful about the future. As always, it’s a pleasure to send you this magazine
