So much good stuff here! I'm very intrigued by the salads with dumplings! I started journaling this year, and appreciate the pen rec, a good one makes all the difference. I've been cooking a lot with beans and added the bean cookbook to my list. And Nancy Myers style is the best, happy thrifting!

Yay so many nuggets of joy right there! I feel like I’m just cracking the surface of beans in my life 😂🙌 And gosh yes, Nancy Meyers is my whole new identity I feel like. ✨ So cozy!!!

Happy anniversary, what a sweet tradition of writing a poem! I love that. You also reminded me of the joys of the french pin. I cut my hair short two years ago but I'm growing it out again and have been playing around with more pulled back styles so I'll have to dig my pins out of their hiding place for fall. I love how low maintenance the hair style is but how pulled together it looks!

Thank you, Michelle! YES pull out the pins! And they don’t kink hair which is also a major benefit.

Very unpopular opinion but I don't like cinnamon or nutmeg so I skip fall treats! I do love an apple crumble so I make mine at home without spices. I've also rediscovered my love for mustard yellow. I think it's after the butter yellow was so popular this summer. It's one of my husband's favorite colors too! It feels like fall without being too drab.

I get that! They can be overwhelming and overdone TBH, I do like some pumpkin baked good but the PSL flavoring is too much for me. I prefer the fruity crisp scents and flavors of apple most of all.

Oooo yes I didn’t get into the butter trend (but I did know about it! 😂) but that makes sense. Condiment colors for the win 😂😂😂

Now you're talking my language!!! Though in Vermont we consider that a year-round flavor 😂
