Style muse: Pippa Middleton

  

I adore Pippa Middleton's style... So simple, classy, yet elegant. Definitely copying some of her looks this fall, because copying is the highest form of flattery - right?  

Spooky apples

Are these cool or what? Learn how to make them here.  

The harvest is plenty!

We received the bounty from the CSA we are participating in - and there are a lot of goodies in it this week! We have kale, cabbage, kohlrabi, lettuce, beets, tomatoes, watermelon, potatoes and eggs!  


Here is what I am planning on making with all this deliciousness:

Zuppa Toscana

Beets & Bowties

Watermelon Salad

Kohlrabi, Apple & Bacon Slaw

What are you having for dinner this week? 

The return...

Sitting in the car dealership waiting room, I found myself with a couple extra moments and beginning to realize, wow - have I really not posted anything since July 6th?  Slightly unbelievable, but then I remember all the millions of things that happened over the last 4 months...

1. We bought a fixer-upper house
2. I started a new job.
3. We bought a fixer-upper house

So basically, all free-time has been swallowed by survival mode living.  But now, things are finally settling down (or so I feel since I'm trapped in this surprisingly cozy waiting room) and I am excited to get back into writing and making note of all life's wonderful things.  

I am excited to start posting before and after photos of our house, because we are very close to having some decent "after" shots.

Until then, here are some images from my recent trip to the local farm... Isn't Oregon breathtaking?
