It’s classic, creamy, comforting, and one of those recipes everyone keeps going back for another scoop of!

So if your ideal fall weekend involves football on the TV, something delicious cooking on the grill, and all the classic Southern sides, you need to save this one. 😍

I have an event coming up in October that calls for cocktail attire, so naturally I found TWO cocktail dresses I love and now I can’t decide which one to wear. 😂

They’re basically the same color, but totally different vibes…

✨ Dress 1: sleek + satin
✨ Dress 2: sparkly + sequined

I think I’m Team Dress 1, but my hubby is firmly Team Dress 2… so we need outside opinions before this turns into a full household debate. 🤣

Which one would YOU wear for an October cocktail attire event?!

Consider this your reminder that Halloween cookies Consider this your reminder that Halloween cookies do NOT have to be complicated! Just add colorful sprinkles and candy eyeballs to sugar cookies and suddenly you’ve got the cutest little monster cookies. 👀🎃

I love making homemade sugar cookie dough, but if you’re short on time? Grab the store-bought dough. I fully support taking the shortcut. 😂👏🏻

These easy Halloween monster sugar cookies would be so cute for a Halloween party, spooky movie night, kids’ Halloween treat, or just a fun weekend baking project.

Minimal effort + maximum spooky cute. That’s my kind of Halloween baking! 👻

The second I saw this black cat in the Target Hall The second I saw this black cat in the Target Halloween decor section, I knew exactly what I had to do… turn it into Charlie. 😹

Obviously, I couldn’t just leave this little black cat statue as-is when I have my very own fluffy tuxedo cat at home! So I grabbed some paint while I was at Target and came home for a little Halloween craft night with my very attentive supervisor. 😂

And when I say Charlie supervised… I mean she watched VERY closely to make sure I got her likeness just right. 👀

I used white paint to recreate her adorable tuxedo face, pink for her little nose, and green for her eyes. Her eyebrow whiskers came out slightly wonky, but honestly… hers are a little wonky in real life too, so we’re calling that accuracy. 😂

When the DIY cat statue was finally finished, Charlie inspected my work and… well… I’m not sure she was impressed. 😹
Obviously she knows she’s MUCH prettier in person, so her Target Halloween decor dupe simply wasn’t up to her standards.

But I think it turned out absolutely adorable! 🐈‍⬛🎃 This was such an easy and fun way to personalize inexpensive Halloween decor and make it look just like your own pet.
Now I need to know… would you paint one to look like your cat?! 👇🏻

Have you ever tried freezing fresh apple slices?! This is one of my favorite fall kitchen hacks, especially after a trip to the apple orchard! 🍏

Every fall, I come home with WAY more apples than we could possibly eat before they go bad 😂 So instead of letting them sit on the counter, I prep and freeze a big batch of apple slices to use all season long!

It takes a little extra time upfront, but having fresh apple slices ready in the freezer makes fall baking SO much easier. 🥧 You can grab exactly what you need whenever you’re craving apple pie, apple crisp, apple cobbler, apple bread, or any of your favorite cozy apple recipes!

Plus, it’s such an easy way to preserve those delicious fresh-picked apples from the orchard and enjoy them long after apple season is over. 🙌🏻🍎

Want to know how to freeze fresh apples the right way so they’re ready for all your fall baking?!

Meanwhile, most sweat sets have me looking like an oversized pumpkin with a drawstring. 🎃😂

BUT THIS ONE?! 👏🏻

This Aerie sweat set might finally be my MomTok moment because I’m obsessed. It’s comfy, cute, and actually makes me feel put together while still basically wearing pajamas, which is exactly the kind of fashion I support. 😂

And obviously, the only appropriate activity while wearing it is binge-watching the new season of SLOMW. 👀

This is your reminder that fall decor doesn’t have to be expensive! Some of my favorite seasonal decorations are DIY projects made with supplies I already have at home, and this spooky cute DIY ghost banner might be one of my favorites yet.

I started by brewing about 4 bags of black tea and letting it cool. While the tea was cooling, I tore a few pages out of an old book I already had and placed them in a shallow baking dish with the tea. I let the pages soak for several hours to give them that perfectly aged, vintage look.

Once the tea-stained book pages were dry, I used a ghost-shaped cookie cutter to trace little ghosts onto each page. Then I cut them out, added tiny faces with a Sharpie, and attached them to twine using mini clothespins.

And that’s it! 👻

I hung my DIY ghost garland on the hutch in my dining room, and I think it adds the perfect amount of spooky cute Halloween decor without spending a bunch of money.

You could easily customize this budget-friendly fall DIY too! Instead of ghosts, try pumpkins, leaves, bats, or whatever shape fits your fall decor. The possibilities are endless!

Save this easy DIY Halloween decor idea for your next fall craft night, and tell me: would you make the ghosts or switch them out for another fall shape?!

Who says the front porch gets to have all the fun?! 😂 I spend WAY more time on our screened-in porch, so of course I had to give it a cozy little fall makeover too!

This bar cart is one of my favorite spots to decorate because it’s so easy to switch out with the seasons. A few pumpkins, some warm fall colors, and simple seasonal touches instantly make this space feel so much cozier for fall. 🍁

And since this is basically my favorite spot to enjoy my morning coffee, I want it to feel just as festive as the rest of our home!

Of course, the cats also think the pumpkins are here specifically for them to knock over. 😹 Apparently they have VERY strong opinions about my fall porch decor.

Are you decorating your outdoor spaces for fall too, or do you keep all the pumpkins inside?! 🎃

Give the Gift of Clean this Holiday Season

This shop has been compensated by Inmar Intelligence and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #HolidaysWithFinish

We all know that 2020 has been such a rough year on everyone. And going into the holidays this year is probably not going to be the same as years past.

You may not be able to do your traditional celebrations and shopping as usual so I thought I would share with y’all a unique idea for gift giving this season.

Why not give the gift of clean with Finish® Products?!

Finish Products in Gift Basket

Products To Put In Your Gift Basket

I wanted to go with a clean dish theme so I included all of the following products in my gift basket this year. I always love receiving gifts that are both practical and functional and I believe this really fits the bill for that.

I also love getting useful items that are necessary, but not something I really like to spend my own money on. And dishwasher products are definitely necessary, but not a thing you would consider to buy with your “fun money”.

So when I receive a gift like this, I love it! Because I can use it right away and I don’t have to remember to put it on my list the next time I go grocery shopping!

Finish Products

This would be so perfect to drop off on your family member’s or friend’s porch as a cute little surprise to let them know you are thinking about them this holiday season.

So even if you aren’t having your normal celebrations and get togethers this year, here is a perfect and safe idea of a way to give a gift to someone you love but cannot see right now!

Finish® Quantum

These Finish® Powerball Quantum dishwasher tablets offer your dishes a superior clean and shine! It scrubs, degreases, and shines all in one.

No need to presoak or rinse, the power of the 3 fast dissolving chambers deliver the power of an overnight soak. Finish products together are a great solution to all of your dishwashing needs.

No matter what Finish® product you decide on (whether gels, tablets, or powders) you will be amazed at how clean and shiny your dishes are after using them!

Finish® Jet Dry® 3in1 Rinse Aid

This product is literally amazing because it solves three different problems in one solution. It not only rinses your dishes, but dries them and brings them a nice shine as well.

The 16 fl oz bottles holds enough for 155 washes too! I’d say that’s a huge timesaver, knowing this product is working on cleaning the dishes for you.

Finish® Dishwasher Cleaner

How often do y’all actually clean your dishwasher? I know I am super guilty of not doing it as often as I should. I really need to get better at it and this product definitely helps me do so.

It removes all the grease and limescale hidden in the parts of your dishwasher that you normally don’t see. It keeps your dishwasher hygienically clean.

A clean dishwasher equals clean dishes!

Finish Dishwasher Products

Where to Buy These Products

You can get these items online from the Finish® website. How easy is that?! You can order everything that you need in your gift basket without ever having to leave your house.

So why not pick up a few of these items to create a simple and useful gift basket for someone you love this Christmas season?!

    This is a great idea. I’ll be honest, I’ve never considered making a gift basket with cleaning products before BUT I would LOVE to get something like this myself lol Funny how that goes, isn’t it? I’m sure there are many people that would adore the ‘gift of clean’ this year!

Would you make a fall dessert board like this?! And more importantly… what treat are you grabbing FIRST?! 👇🏻

Come style my screened in porch for fall with me! Come style my screened in porch for fall with me! 🎃

Who says the front porch gets to have all the fun?! 😂 I spend WAY more time on our screened-in porch, so of course I had to give it a cozy little fall makeover too!

This bar cart is one of my favorite spots to decorate because it’s so easy to switch out with the seasons. A few pumpkins, some warm fall colors, and simple seasonal touches instantly make this space feel so much cozier for fall. 🍁

And since this is basically my favorite spot to enjoy my morning coffee, I want it to feel just as festive as the rest of our home!

Of course, the cats also think the pumpkins are here specifically for them to knock over. 😹 Apparently they have VERY strong opinions about my fall porch decor.

Are you decorating your outdoor spaces for fall too, or do you keep all the pumpkins inside?! 🎃
