HIII!

I return to you from the land of the worst cold ever. Since I’m finally feeling better, I can’t wait to do fun Halloween things this weekend like carve our pumpkins and maybe take Max to a parade. Speaking of, the verdict is still out on what exactly he will be. Because he refuses to wear hats, anything on his head, or any part of a costume that isn’t like clothing (i.e. a cape), so I’m hoping we don’t look like the deadbeat parents who didn’t bother dressing up our kid. I might just draw some whiskers on our faces and call it a day?!

Also, v important: WHAT ARE YOU BEING FOR HALLOWEEN? I’m being a generic millennial who is already getting excited for Christmas. No need to dress up!

Fun things: I started an awesome holiday eats pinterest board if you’d like to follow along! And, I made a video of my favorite holiday cocktail, these cranberry vanilla ginger margaritas. Plus, tomorrow? You need tomato soup shooters with grilled cheese.

Last night, I shared my October favorites and things for the Sephora VIB sale! Can’t wait to see what you’re giddy about.
