How fitting that today, the official first day of Fall, is the first day I saw my breath on my morning walk – ahh!
Coupled with this week’s chillier temps is the undeniably beautiful rainbow of colors that tree leaves all over the city have turned into, seemingly overnight. Fluttering to the ground and audibly crunching underfoot. ‘Tis the season! Here are this week’s favorite finds from around the web.
Favorite seasonal sip: Spiced Cider in Apple Cups. Edible vessels, people! ;)
Favorite DIY decor: Book Art. So smart and chic looking!
Favorite sweet treat: Butterfinger Blondies. My mouth waters when I stare at this picture.
Favorite piece of advice. Right?!
Favorite pop of color. Need this door for my future dream home.
Favorite sweet & savory bite: Sassy Sweet Potato Fries. Awesome sweet & savory combo of flavahs.
Favorite dizzy drink: Ginger Apple Bourbon. I think I’m making this tomorrow. Muwahahaha!
Favorite Show: Awkward. As if I needed another show to get sucked into! Sooo smart and funny though.
Favorite nail polish: NYC Quick Dry Nail Polish. Only $1.99/bottle, this nail polish dries in record speed.
Favorite (and freakiest!) spot: Great Belize Blue Hole. That is a straight up HOLE in the ocean.
Favorite meal on the go: Chicken Cashew Salad from Culvers. I had this salad a few weeks ago during a road trip. SO YUM.
Favorite wake up call. Awww. :)
Favorite recipe: Crack Bread aka Cheddar Bacon Ranch Pulls. I’m scared to make this for fear I will eat the entire loaf. I’m making it anyways.
Favorite serene scene: Emerald Gorge, Columbia River Gorge, Oregon. Very Fern Gully-esque, no?
Favorite fashionista: Pippa Middleton. Can we trade closets?
Favorite new Larabar flavor: Chocolate Chip Cherry Torte.
TGIF everyone! :D
The highlight of my week was going with a friend for a free meal at the Noodles & Company in Ames… before it opened! The Japanese Pan noodles were amazing! I can’t wait for it to open at the Valley West Mall!
I’m going on a fall retreat at a camp up north tonight. I can’t wait. It will be so relaxing.
Good question! It’s important to look back on the positives in the week, not just the negative. Running a half marathon on Sunday with a pre was my favorite part of the week. Finally being able to walk normally again on Thursday was the second!
Highlight of my week will be spending tomorrow night with my amazing Hubby for our 4 year anniversary. I am so lucky!
I can’t wait to go to Oktoberfest tomorrow night and Festival in the Park if the rain will hold off!
The highlight of my week is going to be tomorrow. It’s my birthday and the grandparents are watching out 9-month old so my husband and I are going to enjoy a day out together!
My highlight was running a personal best this week! Loving the cool weather b/c I get to run further and faster!
Oh, and the highlight on my week will most likely be Sunday, the only day I do not have classes or work and can actually see my hubby ;)
The highlight of my week is going to the bridal store for my mom and my sister (my maid of honor) to get fitted for their dresses for my wedding! :)
Those apple cups are SO cute!! I might have to incorporate them into my Halloween party. And, the crack bread? O.M.G.
It’s the first day of fall, hoooray! AND It’s my bday tomorrow..yeah!! That about sums it up :-)
Happy birthday Kelley!
The highlight of my week is going to be VT coming to Marshall for a football matchup tomorrow. VT is such a class act that I won’t mind if they win!
Fun list!
My highlight so far has been my brother’s football game last night! Woohoo Fall!
