Weekend Memo
Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week. I have to say that I think I was naive to think that once my son started school full-time, I would have a ton of time to get things done. I'm finding that I am busier than ever and my time has been drastically reduced. Do you feel the same way? I'm still trying to adjust and figuring out how I can work around our new schedule. In good news, the hubby is due back three weeks from today! I can't wait.Weekend MemoBeauty haul . . . my beauty bag is now ready for fall thanks to bareMinerals. You can shop my favorites here.DIY flower bouquet . . . see above . . . my new favorite way to gift fresh flowers is to add some magnolia leaves. They add a seasonal touch.Call me crazy . . . as I was baking this pumpkin banana bread, I was searching for my old cake tester and while I have used small kabob picks in the past to serve this need, I decided I needed to scour the internet for a real one. My baking is special to me and so are my baking essentials. So as I began my search nothing popped up that interested me. It wasn't until I searched for a "vintage cake tester" that this one popped up and it was basically love at first sight. I began searching their site and just fell in love with the quality and uniqueness of the products they carry. From time to time, I'll be virtually popping in to see what new products they add. I have bookmarked the store to keep in mind as I start creating holiday gift guides for my loved ones.Christmas shopping . . . this year I vowed to get an early start on my Christmas gifts and I have already crossed off a few gifts off my list.
