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 {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 {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...

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...
