Fall Things


Booties. I've been living in this pair by Rag & Bone. (Similar version by Dolce Vita.) I'm pretty lazy and will be wearing black leggings and neutral colored sweaters until March. 


Candles. Autumn Harvest was a Target find. There is a great article on home fragrance in the November issue of Real Simple. One key takeaway...
Tell us a common mistake that people make with home fragrance.
Sticking with a single element - say, just jasmine or just gardenia. Unless it's really, really high-end, it draws too much attention to itself. People will think you're trying to cover something up. You're much better off with a multifaceted fragrance that's hard to pinpoint. 

I will always think of this when I'm shopping for candles now. I have come across some great high end candles (Nest, Aquiesse) at Home Goods recently. Be on the lookout!


Squash. My colleague brought in delicious baked spaghetti squash and cheese, which inspired me to look up more recipes with this veggie. I decided to make this spinach, tomato and goat cheese stuffed squash. It was easy and delicious. I'd say it's healthy too, depending on how much cheese you add.

  1. I am going to admit it even though I think I am the only blogger that thinks this but....I dislike Nest's Pumpkin candle. I have nothing but love for Nest's Holiday scent but Pumpkin simply gives me a headache!

  2. Your Insta of the squash looked so good. I just may have to make it! Now if only I had the booties to accompany my cooking...

    1. I'm definitely going to make it again! Next time I might put it in the microwave or bake a little longer.

    I'm candle obsessed and I always have the best luck spotting high end gems at Tj.Maxx and Marshalls.
