No.191: Five October Favorites

1 // UP AND VANISHED PODCAST
Sometimes I get a notification on my phone from the Stitcher app that recommends a podcast I may enjoy.  Up and Vanished was a recommendation and thanks Stitcher, you were right!  I started with Season One, about a 30-something single high school teacher who disappears in a small southern town.  I was hooked and blazed through the episodes.  Currently on Season Two and enjoying this one too.  The woo-woo aspect definitely is creepy though.

2 // HONEYCRISP APPLE BUTTER

Talk about fall in a jar!  We were gifted a jar of honeycrisp apple butter and it was so delicious.


3 // “I LOVE LUCY” RERUNS
When we chose “I Love Lucy” as a family night show, the kids were skeptical, but quickly became fans.  Most of the jokes are just as funny and it’s 95% clean, which is rare these days.  The kids have become so into it that Sophie and TJ now frequently play “Lucy and Ricky,” complete with dress and tuxedo jacket.  Hysterical.  



4 // LEATHER BOOTIES FOR FALL
As usual, I’m super late to the trends!  I used some of my Poshmark earnings to finally buy myself a pair of Toms booties.  They are SO comfortable and cute too.  I love them. 

5 // PUMPKIN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies are one of our fall staples.  We’ve made them four times so far and they’re gone in minutes!  #bigfamilyproblems  They taste best the day you make them, so I don’t feel too too bad.
