Monthly Musings {October 2024}

 Happy Halloween!! Today I am linking up with Patty and Holly for their October edition of Monthly Musings!

Let's get into all the Halloween fun!

1. The past two years, I have decorated for Christmas on Halloween. I have decided to wait until November 1 this year though. So, we don't have any plans for the night as of right now. 

2. When I think of fall, I think of food. Ha! So, my favorite "traditions" are just cooking all of the yummy soups and baking all the things! 

3. I really don't remember the last time I had either candy bar. I do love an Almond Joy, though! And Starbursts all the way!

4. If I could go trick or treating with my nieces and nephews, I definitely would! I don't know that I would want to host a party, but I would go to one!

5. I like handing out candy!

6. I think for the most part, everyone around here goes on the 31st, unless the weather is bad.

7. I don't go all out, but I do have pops of different Halloween decor mixed in with my fall stuff.

8. Eat way too much of it 😂.

9. I'm really not sure what the hours are. We don't live in an area with a lot of kids around.

10. We don't ever have anything specific, but I do like to have some kind of soup.

Have a great day!!

    I think of different meals when I think of fall traditions too- it's just what we do! :)

    I saw a mini Almond Joy at the gym this week and just had to have one; I love them and so rarely see/eat one!

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...

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

Friday Favorites {8.29.25}

 Happy last Friday of August! As always, I am here to link up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from my week.  To be honest, it feels out of touch to make this post. After the devastating news of yet another school shooting, my heart is so heavy. Innocent lives taken and still no changes from people in power. I honestly do not know how anyone can see news like this and not be enraged and demanding for change. I do not get political on here, because that is not what I want for this space. However, I feel the need to share my thoughts about this. America needs gun control. ALL Americans need access to healthcare, especially when it comes to mental health. America needs change. Remember these things when you vote. Think about your babies, their friends, their teachers. Stay aware, stay educated. But also please make sure you spend time doing things that bring you joy (it's good for your mental health!). That is at least what I am going to do. With that being said, here ar...
