four things


top left: COZY. October is in full swing and so are all things comfy. Who doesn't love the fact that it is the social norm to be walking around in thick sweaters & scarves all day, everyday? The downside: you may feel sleepy for most of the day; upside: its a real excuse for coffee (but that's in the next paragraph). This month I've been observing the Californians I follow on Insta being that we'll be living there in um...about two months (sdn!!sn!sjd!! regroup!). I like to watch what they wear although the temps don't really care for all those layers. Good news, they embrace the cozy styles nonetheless. And the best part, when the winter comes you're still dressing cozy without freezing! I can hardly contain my excitement for that, G knows! With every day in the 50's, which thankfully have been few, come ten thousand hallelujahs that we won't be living through another polar vortex (that cursed phrase) this year. Or the next. Ah.....

top right: LATTE. Because fall just makes me want it all. of. the. time. Just that feeling of something warm in your hands brings so much happiness. Oh the simple joys October brings.

bottom left: APARTMENT. Little by little, the Mr. & I have been on the search for a new place in the San Diego area to call ours. My number one musts (note past tense) were hard wood floors & large windows. The latter, we have enjoyed like we'd never thought we would in our first place in Chi. The former was never really an option. Bonuses would be exposed brick walls & a balcony. However, what we've been finding is not what we expected. Basically huge, one bedrooms with pools on site & carpet throughout. Almost every place we've seen has those three things. While I'm not complaining about the pools or the space, I am going to keep dreaming of our cozy loft that perhaps we'll one day find. Perhaps? lol 

bottom right: BAKE. Oh, it most definitely is on my mind! How about you? I find myself eagerly waiting for the weekend to come so I can splurge on something sweet. I've been thinking up some recipes to try in October - one being pumpkin spice scones. I'll keep you updated on those! G is not a fan of pumpkin anything. Clearly, he doesn't yet know he will be helping me with those so.....it should be fun. :)
