Friday Favorites

November 7, 2014 · 1 Comment

Friday FavoritesThis week was filled with creativity. It actually went by slow but felt satisfying. I think that comes in part from my monthly goal of appreciating each moment and remembering to be grateful each day. This gratitude challenge has made me more mindful of each moment, task, and action. And I’ve seen such an increase in my mood, even on a rainy day, which I would’ve normally just gloated about. Instead I had an energy that brought me to the craft store inspired to get things for upcoming crafts and gifts, which then made me take a long scenic drive along colored trees in beautiful shades of yellow, orange and reds. I feel like I accomplished so much this week, including taking the time for others. It makes me look forward to this weekend even more, where me and the guy are road tripping to Baltimore and DC to meet up with a group of friends for our friend’s app and business launch party. It’ll be nice to see friends I haven’t seen in years, plus I’ve been itching to travel and this mini-getaway comes at the perfect time. Hope you continue the enjoy the best of Fall, and have a great weekend! Friday FavoritesFelt like a child again, playing in the leaves for this colorful wreath. The leaves looked as if they were simmering…
Friday FavoritesI’ve been on a mini pie kick. So many ways to bake up my classic and fall favorite apple pie. Friday FavoritesFriday FavoritesBefore creating these yummy no-bake pumpkin oatmeal bites, I experimented with a version of this parfait, which was a nice afternoon treat. Friday FavoritesTested out this amazing flourless chocolate cake for one of my classes. So delicious, you have to try it!Friday FavoritesBrought my little guy back a cookie from Boston for his birthday. Friday FavoritesFor Halloween I whipped up an even healthier version of these amazing pumpkin ale cupcakes, topped with an ale brown sugar glaze. Friday FavoritesStocking up on plenty of dough to have on hand for an impromptu pie. Friday Favorites Friday FavoritesDidn’t want to toss all my apple peels, so decided to bake them up with maple syrup…and it was absolutely delicious! My new favorite snack, and highly recommend you baking a batch too!Friday FavoritesCan’t get enough of Illume’s tin candles in Gilded Amberleaf, such a lovely scent for autumn and isn’t it so pretty…

    […] we decided on sushi, and then a chai latte for a walk through the kiosks, where I bought the pup a Patriots decorated dog biscuit. The weather and timing couldn’t be more perfect for people watching, as Halloween […]

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

Instagram post 2195361413982519148_20110111 I haven’t really created new holiday stylings in the past few years, mostly because cookies have become precedent, or I’m already working on early new year events & get crafty making gifts. But this year I’m trying to fill more of that free time w. rest....& plenty of scheming for my next travels😉🌿
.....
But you can get more of this Festive Red Boho Styling & other holiday ideas all on the blog archives!! Follow the bio link for plenty of inspiration✨❄️
Instagram post 2193145886518090006_20110111 Words for the weekend, the holiday season & every other day of the year!✨And yes I photocopied & framed this from the latest issue of Magnolia Journal, it pretty much sums up my approach to the holidays this year.....
reusing what I already have,
woods & greens to celebrate
the beauty in Mother Nature’s bareness,
fairy lights that remind me of starry night skies
& this little penguin (who has been my only 
non-necessary purchase) because I love 
penguins & it makes me smile 
every time I’m at my desk working🐧❄️🌿
Instagram post 2192265495171179698_20110111 A little but special throwback to our Gift Wrap & Give Back Holiday Party! We gathered up the gals for some bites, wrapped donated gifts & wrote cards - all for kids who don’t get to celebrate the holidays or receive the kind of gifts most do....this is one of the easiest ways you can get together w. friends this holiday season while doing some REAL good!

Grab your friends, have them each donate a toy/gift for a local community drive or a family in need, then have each person bring a dish & something to wrap with! Get all the ideas for this party on the blog & make your own special “Give Back” holiday party💚
Instagram post 2190101455565098681_20110111 December ..... while most dive into the crazed chaos, I will honor your Slowness🌿I will still celebrate the things I love about the holiday season, but I will do it in a more natural way; an homage to the restorative & simplistic beauty of Mother Nature this time of year.

I will continue to be grateful, showing my kindness & love towards others, even if it’s a simple act of baking cookies or giving away a coat.

I will reflect & cherish all the days before. I will live in each present moment, but also dream & envision new plans for goals I know I’m on my way to achieving, new places to explore, new adventures, new people to meet.

I will continue to learn & grow into an even better version of myself as I celebrate the final days of another year & the beginnings of a new.....✨
