Hello Monday {1.12.26}

 Happy Monday!! As always, I am linking up with Holly and Sarah today for Hello Monday and to share about my weekend! 

I started my Friday off my coming home to my new fancy candle! Very very much a huge splurge, but I have been dying to buy one of these candles for a couple of years and I had some Christmas money burning a hole in my pocket 😬. I am obsessed!! It smells amazing! (I got the max 16 size)

Caleb picked up OEC for us for dinner. YUM. Perfect night in with wine and Desperate Housewives!

Love this view 😍. I sat here and waited until my candle burned evenly before blowing it out 😂.

Saturday morning, I got some laundry started and did the dishes before hoping on the Peloton. Loved this 15 minute low impact class!

OOTD. Love this new sweatshirt I got from Loft when we were in Vegas! Ooooh, I want the matching pants too!

We made goat cheese and penne for dinner and watched one of our favorite movies- Just Go With It. Had me wanting to plan a trip to Hawaii!

Sunday, we drove to Tupelo to have Chili's for lunch and grab a few things from Sam's. When we got back to Starkville, we headed to Kroger for gas and groceries.

We had a very chill weekend, and I always appreciate that! Have a great Monday!

    What the heck happened to that rice? They should have given it to you for free.

      Are you the same person constantly commenting negativity on my blog? Maybe you shouldn't read here anymore. Clearly, everything I do bothers you. Have a great day!

      The candle looks nice. I'm a good cook, and rice turned into a stodgy mushy goo is just plain wrong.

      It certainly was not sludgy, mushy goo. Maybe you are just getting confused by it being covered in a sauce. If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have posted about it and said yum.

    Sounds like the perfect winter weekend! Oh my gosh I am so intrigued by that candle- where did you get it? What does it smell like? :)

      I ordered it from Baobab Collection! There is a girl I follow on IG who is always raving about them…I took a chance on the smell by ordering online, but it’s so good! It’s described as solar and aquatic- it’s kind of a bright, fresh, and salty smell. Smells like summer to me!

    So glad to hear I'm not the only one that tries to wait until the melted candle is perfectly level before blowing it out! That is one of my all time favorite movies and it does make me want to go to Hawaii each time I watch.

 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...

 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 {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...
