Thursday Thoughts



My wish list at Nordstrom seems to be growing everyday! There's so many cute things but do I really need any of it? Probably not! I will say I think i'm going to order this scarf! It's under $50 & looks soo cozy! This bag is super similar to two I own so I don't really need it unfortunately- but if you don't have a bag in this wine shade you should get this one! Rebecca Minkoff handbags are such great quality for the price.



Things I did this week // 

* As some of you may have noticed I did a little blog redesign! Which took waaaay longer than I had anticipated. The whole coding and HTML behind websites is super complicated. I got so frustrated trying to use photoshop to create a new banner Kyle ended up doing it for me! But I'm happy to say that I really like how it turned out! 

* Baked some acorn squash! This is a great side dish for fall time! You cut the squash in half and place it in a baking dish with a little water in the oven for about 35 mins at 375- then you take it out- flip it over and add butter & brown sugar then bake a little while longer- It's so delicious! I had mine with ham, green beans & fresh biscuits! 

*Tried to really relax & unwind at night- This is so important to do. The last few weeks have been so busy for me I was starting to get burnt out. I've been taking the time each night to turn off my phone- make some tea and just relax, it has been so good for me!

Things I'm doing this weekend // 

* Apple picking with friends! Every year Kyle & I go apple picking with my best friend Molly & her boyfriend- it's become quite the tradition so we're going on Saturday! 

* Heading to the middle of nowhere Vermont- Kyle insists that the best foliage is far away so he has requested we take a long drive- I can't complain though- pretty views & hot coffee isn't a bad way to spend a day. 

*Baking something! I think I might make some bread- Have you ever used a bread maker?? Life changing! There's nothing better than a loaf of bread you made! 

What are your weekend plans?

  4. We're going to get sushi and see a movie this weekend. Much needed because I've been stuck inside all week due to surgery.

  6. Please put those booties in my closet. They're amazing! I'm so jealous that you're going apple picking. I was telling my boyfriend that I've never been to an apple orchard before. He's from up north, and I've lived most of my life down south. I hope y'all have an amazing time!
