I know that many of you are new readers since last year, so I wanted to share two of my favorite pumpkin recipes with you before you begin prepping your Thanksgiving meals. One is a fairly labor intensive pumpkin pie that is more than worth the work. Leave it to Smitten Kitchen to come up […]
Over the past few years I’ve become quite a fan of making bundt cakes. In part, I’d say it’s because they look beautiful, but in all honesty it’s mainly because they are much simpler to prepare than making full blown cakes, and taking the time to ice and decorate them. I’ve also been fascinated by […]
I recently had a college friend reach out asking what key pieces I would add to a closet for the fall/winter seasons. Last year she was wearing maternity clothes before she gave birth to a beautiful son, and this year she feels like her closet needs some refreshing. Whether you’re working your way out of […]
Sometimes I love change and sometimes I despise it. When it comes to hair, I tend to change it up quite frequently. I get bored. I can get carried away going short and then when it’s time to grow it out a bit I literally want to rip the hair out of my head. I […]
Happy Halloween! We have had a week full of everything Halloween. From parades, to pumpkin carving, gingerbread houses and trick or treat, we tackled it all! Here’s a look at everything that went on: 1) A Transformer watching a firetruck in a parade that hands out candy. It doesn’t get much better for this 5yo! […]
I found this coat at LOFT last week and fell in love immediately. It’s lined and although it won’t be quite heavy enough for our northeastern winters, it’s absolutely perfect for the fall weather. Shortly after buying this coat, I saw this post from Cupcakes and Cashmere and was totally inspired. Granted it’s nothing out […]
I love the way foods can be nostalgic. There are some that due to a past experiences I can never look at again (like banana popsicles that I had one too many of as a child) and others that bring back wonderful memories. This Chicken Pot Pie was brought to me one day shortly after […]
Alright gang, last week we discussed the way winter boots can disappear from the shelves by the time you’re in actual need of them. Well, the same holds true for your winter coats. Should you wait for the frigid weather to arrive, you just may be out of luck finding a coat that you can […]
Fall layers are great because they allow you to add more elements to your outfit and enable you to create countless looks. What’s even better is when layering is made effortless. I had been admiring a few sweaters with attached shirt tails from JCrew here, here and here but then I ran into this one […]
Hey guys, happy Friday! After a week of dealing with a head cold I’m finally starting to feel like myself again. It’s unfortunate that as a full-time mom I’m unable to call in sick. My boss simply says, ‘not a chance’. My 2 yo came down with something similar as well but it amazes me […]
