Monthly Musings {September 2024}

 Happy Thursday! Today I am linking up with Holly and Patty for the September edition of Monthly Musings!

Here are the prompts for today.....

1. I stick with my same routines pretty much all year long....same dinner time, same get in bed time, pretty much the same go to sleep time, same wake up time/morning routine....I thrive on a routine. But, if I get off of my routine, I just have to make myself get back into it asap.

2. Some of my favorites...

From Mix and Match Mama: Buffalo Ranch Chicken Tortilla Soup (it's in my slow cooker right now!), Chipotle Turkey Chili, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Dip

Jessie James Decker Chicken Tortilla Soup (in her Just Eat cookbook) and her Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies (from her Just Feed Me cookbook)

Lasagna Soup (I use a recipe from @maggieeatsss on Tik Tok)

I haven't made them yet, but I am planning to soon, buuuut...Taylor Swift's Chai Tea Cookies

3. Jeans with a cute top or light sweater, a matching leggings and long sleeve shirt "athleisure" set, cute boots and/or booties, and fun sneakers.

This one is from Vuori, and I wear it at least once a week! Shirt | Leggings

4. I am really enjoying my classes this semester!

5. Yes! Elementary-high schools and colleges go pretty much all out around here. There's a big parade around town for the high school here. When we were in school, we always did a dress up week to celebrate.

6. Apple cider!

7. They do, but they haven't quite yet. A lot of them are just kind of dead 😂. I imagine they'll start turning within the next month.

8. Anything pumpkin!! 

9. I think I'd have to go hayride. I hate the way a bonfire makes my hair and clothes smell- ha!

10. When I think of back to school, I automatically think of fall. One movie for sure would be You've Got Mail!

Have a great Thursday!

  1. Wow now see I would have said we celebrate homecoming here too but the local schools just have a dance and then the football game. They MAY have a small in school pep rally the afternoon before but that's it; no parades or anything!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...
