I’m taking a food break today to share some of my Winter Favorites!

Do you subscribe? If not, you totally should.

I’m sharing my October Favorites with you today! This month I’ve got beauty and lifestyle favorites for you and not a ton of foodie stuff! My diet has consisted mostly of Halloween candy that I bought in advance, “so I was prepared”…which is really a thin veil for I bought candy ahead of time so I could eat it all month.

Please do NOT ask me how many Reese’s Pumpkins I consumed this month.

September went by in a flash and I am sharing all my September Favorites today. I’ve got some beauty, baking, reading, and lifestyle faves!

Well, September was a busy month. I feel like it’s the month that never happened, like it went by so fast I don’t even know!  I spent most of September chauffeuring my kids to and from activities. It’s literally a second full time job that starts at 3:00 pm, so I’ve had to make sure I get all my website work done early.

Better late than never! Coming at ya with everything that I loved in the month of August!

The last month of summer was a super busy month around here….I tell you, August has a way of doing that. You feel like you have ALL the time in the summer, then boom it’s August and you have to cram everything in quick!
