happy friday

I hope you all have a great weekend planned, filled with halloween type things or pumpkins! I still can't figure out what I should dress up like on Saturday when a large group of us head to Capitol Hill for some pre-halloween festivities.

     I'm leaning towards being Dora the Explorer and Brian as my Diego...

     Anyway, I couldn't help but share "how to relish autumn" via Anthropologie Magazine:

Have a great weekend!

Fall Favorites

Vest/ Jeans/ Sweater/ Shoes/ Purse

Roost + Lover.ly

The temperature is consistently dropping here, and the trees are almost bare. It would be nice if fall lasted longer, but it seems the last hurrah of fall is halloween (at least in northern Idaho). Anyways, I think this would be the perfect halloween treat (if only someone would make it for me, because it's a little beyond my skill level). 

Butternut Squash and Hazelnut Bouchons, with Toasted Nutmeg Ice cream 
(I have no idea what this mean but I know I would love it!)

Or I would settle for this....Riesling Poached Pear Tart with Chai Spiced Custard and Almond Crust

On a side note, I just got a Lover.ly account. It's like Pinterest, but just for weddings and I am officially addicted. You can search by theme, style, color, and the list goes on, and then categorize your favorites:

It's beautiful, go check it out: Here

Fall

I love fall, and over here, it is on fire with color!  We finally had a good stretch of bright, crisp fall days, so over the weekend we squeezed in a few fall-ish activities. We went on a beautiful hike, then to a not-so-scary haunted corn maze, and finally apple/pumpkin picking. Needless to say, it was a perfect fall weekend!

Photo Friday!

Yay! It's Friday! 

It's going to be in the 90's all weekend, and we are excited to enjoy a little bit of this indian summer. As for tonight, i'm being dragged to the first of many ski film premiers, but we are heading into Spokane, so hopefully we can grab a night cap at my favorite tequila bar, El Que. 

Hope you all have a great a weekend!
