Pumpkin Or Pecan

Hey everyone--

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for. It's been wonderful spending time with my family and eating wonderful meals. I'm so excited for the upcoming month of Holiday fun!

With Deb Shops, I wanted to create a layered look that would compliment wine colored pants. All autumn, I'd been pining over wine colored pants. This Deb Shops pair is my favorite that I've found. To compliment the color of the pants, I paired them with a denim button up. I love the denim blue color combined with the wine color. Then, I added an Aztec print cardigan and brown lace up boots. & to accessorize I threw on my favorite cloche hat!

Happy weekend friends!

November's Treat: Mini Pumpkin Pies

In honor of Thanksgiving week, I decided to make these adorable mini pumpkin pies. I knew I had to try these the minute that I saw them on the Little Bit Funky blog. Follow these steps to make your own mini pies!

Ingredients:

1 15 oz can of pumpkin puree, 2 eggs, 1 12 oz can of evaporated milk, 2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice, 3/4 cup of sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt, 2 boxes of ready made pie crust, 1 cookie cutter (circle or heart shape), cooking spray, whipped cream

Instructions: 

1. First, spray muffin tin with cooking spray.

2. Unroll ready made crust and cut out shapes with cookie cutter.

3. Place cut out crust into each muffin cup. You will need to work with a bit to create the shape you want.

4. Combine the sugar, pumpkin pie spice, eggs, pumpkin puree and salt together. Once everything is combined, stir in the evaporated milk. 

5. When the mixture is combined, pour into each muffin cup. The mixture can reach almost to the top of the crust. 

6.  Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, depending on your oven. ( Mine were done a little after 30 minutes) You can check to see if they're done by putting a knife in the center, if it comes out clean they are done.

7. Let the pies cool and then garnish with whipped cream. The pies are now ready to enjoy and share with friends!

In Fall Swing

Hey guys--

Deb Shops has the cutest cold weather gear! I can't get enough of their sweaters, boots and knit accessories! This aztec print duster cardigan was an amazing addition to my fall wardrobe. I've always loved aztec and nordic prints for autumn. To get the look, pair a printed sweater with a basic white blouse and black skinnies. Then accessorize with a knit turban head wrap and tan buckled booties. And these boots are my favorite boots of the moment. They have red stripes down the back where the zippers are! Such a nice touch.

Happy Monday friends!

My Pumpkin Sweater

Hey guys--

I've been trying to regain full strength from being sick. I've been playing catch up with my school work, work work and my blog! So I'm not going to write very much, but this is my absolute favorite cardigan for fall.  It has such a vibrant, pumpkin orange color. It's absolutely perfect for the autumn season! It's also so so cozy to snuggle into. And to make it better it's from ModCloth, my absolute love.

Happy Veteran's Day to all! I want to thank all of the brave men & women who keep up safe and protect our freedom. I'm eternally grateful.
