Happy Friday 11/1/24

Happy Friday! How was your Halloween? We trick or treated and enjoyed all the decor around the neighborhood and ate way too much candy and stayed up past our bedtime and it was a blast! I never used to be a Halloween person, but it’s sure growing on me :) Wishing you a lovely weekend!

Loved this stick and Spanish Moss porch from Anthropologie!

Some links from the week…

The big question after Halloween: “Can we secretly take our children’s Halloween candy” or how else do you get rid of it?

Made this white bean chicken chili recipe this week and it was a hit with everyone in the family and a couple neighbor kids too :)

How to deep clean your washing machine. It’ll make you cringe, it’ll make you plug your nose, but it’s gotta be done.

Why you might need an adventure. “When life is getting you down, the answer is not more comfort but less.”

Lessons, big and small, from growing out my gray. “I haven’t been this self-conscious since I got braces in sixth grade. I haven’t felt this liberated since I got my driver’s license.”

Living in this sweatshirt right now.

How to help kids be mentally strong.

And a book rec for ya. This was such a fun read that mixes romance and magical realism. I just loved the characters and writing!

Have a good one!
