Halloween Musings

Halloween Musings

(Monday Musings, Halloween style) Hello, Monday. Happy Halloween! It was a whirlwind weekend, this last one in October.  A day downtown, a night in with friends and poof- it was Sunday and nary a chore was done.  BUT, I walk into Monday with the laundry…

Hello, Monday.

Whew, where did the weekend go? It was much busier than I anticipated on my end, even though my out of town plans for the weekend fell through. Turns out, there are always things that must be done. Luckily, some of those things are catching up with friends that you see not often enough.

I can’t believe we’re already in the last week of October (and of course are undergoing second summer at the moment- I have my AC on today) but here we are. I hope you’re taking care of yourself so that as we all go into the next two months in a sprint towards 2023, you get to actually enjoy it.

This week, here we go:

I saw Ticket to Paradise on Saturday and it was so cute. If you love a good rom-com, this one’s for you. It also led me to binging all the Ocean’s movies – not a bad downstream effect.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s…Snoopy? People are funny.

It’s fall baking time! Here’s some inspo.

Going to have to wait until next year for those snow crabs. Climate change, people!

I was enthralled by the book She Said, so I’m quite looking forward to the movie.

Wow, talk about aging gracefully. Dahhhhm.

From my kitchen, I’m loving this on this.

It’s apple season, so I’m going for this (breakfast), this (dinner), this (snack) and this (dessert).

That’s it. Have a great week!

Hello, Sunday. Yesterday was the perfect fall day, and I couldn’t help but go outside and be a little silly about it. It’s my favorite few weeks of the year, when the leaves are just that perfect color of golden, the air is decidedly crisp…

Hello, Sunday. This was a slow week. Did anyone else think it was a slow week? Maybe it was because I got both my booster and flu shot at the same time, so mentally prepared myself to be down and out for 48 hours, and…

I hope you’ll indulge me as I share just a little more from my Grecian adventures, but I couldn’t close that chapter without telling you about the pink beach.

Sunday Somethings – October 2022

Sunday Somethings – October 2022

Hello, Sunday.  Hello, October! It’s almost like summer checked out as soon as its shift was over because it went from 87 to 65 and it has barely been back up since. Not mad about it. I’m settling into the new season in my house…
