Reading: Morbidly Yours by Ivy Fairbanks

Our book club pick this month is a witty, sarcastically upbeat Irish spicy romance, and I don’t think any of us knew what we were in for until I saw the Irish translations for some of the phrases being used. 🥵 Stand by to see if it makes it onto my “book recs” tags!

Watching: The Great British Baking Show

This week they had their first-ever meringue week, and it did not disappoint. I loved how they made a running joke out of how stingy Paul Hollywood has been with handshakes this season – fair enough, he should be! I also think Noel and Alison might be my favorite hosting duo yet.

Eating: Apple Butter

Darlings, I’m learning. Today was my first attempt, and I failed spectacularly. It’s currently sitting in the fridge until I can fix it in the morning. New fear unlocked: botulism. It’s not for me, guys. So, I’m determined to just… not get it. That said, what has been cooked is incredible, and my little home smells like the hopes and dreams of a magical cooking fairy. ✨

Wearing: Cardigans and Sweater Vests

Oh friends, what a joy autumn is. It’s not freezing yet, but just chilly enough to need an extra layer midday. For me? Cardigans and sweater vests are the answer. Here are a few similar to the ones I’ve recently picked up on thredUP! 💕

Dreaming of: Building Something For Myself

I know I have this blog, and it’s an outlet I truly love, but I’m craving something more. I’m not sure what’s next for me, but I hope to iron out the details soon – maybe with the help of a coach or counselor. 💫 Wish me luck!

Thanks for reading today, friends. Hope you have an amazing week!
