Wishlist: October 2015

October 1, 2015

Wishlist sources: 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12 Hello, October! I feel like I've been waiting on you forever. This summer started off so gloomy, rainy, and cold, and ended so fiercely hot and muggy, that many of us Midwesterners found ourselves saying, "Let's just skip all this and get to the crisp ...

Hippie Pasta

September 30, 2015

When it comes to going out for lunch or dinner, friends and family are forever saying, "Your choice. You have more restrictions and less to choose from." As a vegetarian ten years ago, this was definitely the case. And maybe in some smaller towns or cities, it still is. ...

Autumn 2015 Playlist

September 29, 2015

There are songs, albums, and artists that I tend to associate with each season, but none more-so than in the fall. It's usually the time of year that I discover new artists and listen to them obsessively. It's funny how I'll go months without thinking about a particular song that I first heard and ...

Monday Muse: Stevie Nicks

September 28, 2015

Digging back into some of my earliest memories, I recall one powerful voice that, even as a young child, resulted in an almost immediate emotional response every single time I heard it. I grew up listening to the classic rock my parents had come of age to and enjoyed almost all of it (and still do ...

Apple Cider Moscow Mule

September 25, 2015

Jeremy has been obsessed with Moscow Mules this summer. It's the first mixed drink I've really seen him get into, as he's so into craft beer. He's perfected the classic Moscow Mule and, while I enjoy them, too, I became curious as to whether there might be an autumn-inspired version. ...

June starting off strong, reminding me how much my June starting off strong, reminding me how much my soul craves a good summer golden hour. ✨

Thanks to my girl @alissa.serres for always making my hair dreams come true! ✨

Almost every nook and cranny of our home is filled Almost every nook and cranny of our home is filled with sentimental pieces. I’m the daughter, granddaughter, and niece that will gladly take items the family may otherwise get rid of or have tucked away in closets for decades, untouched. The kind of traveler that looks for leaves and shells and rocks to keep in my pockets and carry with me, so I can always hold a piece of where I’ve been. Usually, I have no idea where these things may come to live in my own home, but they always manage to find their perfect places in time.

These shelves alone hold a basket full of stones and shells from around the world, framed high school love letters my grandpa wrote to my grandma in the 1940s, an assortment of found and inherited books, some well more than a century old, and sweet portraits of my great grandparents. 

While I strive to avoid clutter, I do love filling every room with as many meaningful pieces as I can. Because while many things are just things, some are so much more. 🤍
