And just like that, it’s October and the end of another week!

On Tuesday I begged Ben to tell me it was Friday already. He panicked, telling me there was way too much left to do this week in order forĀ it to be Friday, to which I responded, um, relax, I can’tĀ actuallyĀ bend the space-time continuum.Ā Anyway, after a blink of an eye, here we are!

After a crazyĀ week I’m ready to relax this weekend, get some stuff done around the house, and put away my summer clothes for good. The 80s we’ve been experiencing are officially gone until next yearĀ so it’s time to bust out my fall wardrobe, aka fiveĀ long sleeved shirts and twoĀ sweaters.Ā Isn’t that kind of fun though? Pulling out old tops you forget about always feels like going shopping except you already know everything fits (well, hopefully!) and you don’t have to deal with trying anything on in those dreadful dressing rooms. Please tell me I’m not the only one who feels like a troll in mallĀ lighting?

Glad we’re on the same page.

Anyway, wherever you are and whatever you do have a wonderful weekend, and in the meantime please enjoy my Friday Favorites from around the web and beyond!

Favorite devour: Loaded Buffalo Chicken Nachos. Just the other day I said myself,Ā self – it’s high time we have some nachos!Ā Good story. Anyway, these loaded nachos look terrific. Just wait ’til you check outĀ the cheese pouring shot!

Favorite truth:Ā Raising your first child vs. second child (so different). Obviously I don’t have a second child but I stayed up way too late one night last week laughing my buns off at this list. Like, couldn’t fall asleep because IĀ was still giggling long after IĀ went to bed.

Favorite cozy: Pumpkin Sage Baked Ziti. I know, moreĀ pumpkin! I’m always on the look outĀ for a savory dish using pumpkin though and this baked ziti looks mouthwatering. I especially love that it includes sage since we have it growing in such abundance in our backyard.

Favorite fashion. Loving this effortless look and especially the inexpensive shoes and accessories this blogger chose to snaz it up with. Totally jean jacket-friendly too, which is a must for fall.

Favorite nook: Anthropologie Inspired XOXO Pillow. The pillow this post is centered around is absolutely fabulous but I’m obsessed with this nook as a whole. Would make a perfect little reading/snuggleĀ spot for a kid or adult.
