One of my favorite movies to watch to kick off the Halloween season is The Nightmare Before Christmas. What are some of your favorites? I guess it really could go either way for both holidays, but I’m still partial to it for Halloween. Jack and Sally are the best Halloween characters and really seemed to…
Halloween Bone Invitation
October is here and I am so ready to deck out the blog with all things creepy, spooky, scary, and fun! Halloween is my favorite month and I like to go big with everything and emerse myself in the horrer filled month. It’s definitely not for everyone, but I hope that along the next few weeks,…
Herb Tablescape
Now that warmer weather is behind us (or soon to be!), I’m going to miss having my outdoor herb garden so readily available when I need it for cocktails or other recipes. This year was the first year that I started an herb garden and it was so nice having fresh herbs when I needed…
Sweet Stops: Ruby Snap
These posts may become one of my very favorites here on the blog. An excuse to travel around the city and eat my favorite sweets and desserts…? What’s not to love about that?! If you’ve been following along for a bit, you’ll know that I’ve started a new series on the blog titled “Sweet Stops”,…
Caramel Ice Cream Baked Apples
I know I’ve mentioned it many times already, but this week officially kicks off my favorite month of the year by far. OCTOBER! Time to usher in the ghosts, ghouls, pumpkins, candy corn, and caramel apples. Let’s take a moment to talk about caramel. First off, I realize that I might have a different view…
Homemade Apple Cider
Today is the first day of Fall and I couldn’t be more thrilled! It’s definitely my favorite season by far. Crisp evenings, crunchy leaves, pumpkin flavored everything, and Halloween! One of the things I missed out on last year, was picking fresh apples at an orchard. It was on my bucket list for the season, but…
Salt and Vinegar French Fries
I’m definitely a sugar girl through and through, but there is one kind of salt that I can get down with. French fries. There’s just something about deep fried potato wedges that speak to my inner food obsessed self. And potatoes are a vegetable, so that’s good, right? They’re pretty much one of the 5…
DIY Fresh Floral Cake Topper
One of my very favorite things is cake. Homemade or store bought, I’m not picky. I might have even been known to take a trip to the local grocery store to buy myself my very own cake. For no reason. This may have happened on multiple occasions too. (No, I don’t eat the whole cake….
DIY Chair Swags
We’re back to another Monday morning, but it was a really fun weekend for me. Did you guys have any fun plans? I didn’t do much, but football officially started this week and I couldn’t be more thrilled. (Go Ravens!) I really got into the game a few years ago, and just love the time…
Dr. Pepper Soda Floats
Dr. Pepper is my jam. We have a love/hate relationship, becauce I try to stay away from soda as much as I can (who drinks water?!), but I always find myself running back to this staple in my liquid repitoire. There’s just something about it. Most people’s soda vice (including my husband’s) is Diet Coke,…
