I’m certain I say this every month, but is it really the last Friday of the month? And as always, yes, yes it is. I have a personal day today and I feel totally weird not being at school right now. It’s going to be nice though! I’m going to get my nails done in the middle of the day and not think about spelling tests and the million other teachery things until Monday. To bid adieu to October, I’m sharing five favorites! It was a FAST month, so this’ll be a fast post. Buckle up and share your favorites in the comments!
ONE // English Breakfast Tea
You guys now that I’m all about my coffee. However, lately, I’ve been starting my morning with a cup of tea! I’ve been reaching for Twinings English Breakfast with a little bit of honey and it’s perfect. I really love their Irish Breakfast version as well, so I need to grab some of that next time I’m at the store!
TWO // Pumpkin Spice Everything
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I HAVE NOT had a Starbucks PSL this season.😱 Crazy, I know. But I’m still partaking in all the pumpkin festiveness, from bagels to creamer (when I have coffee), to homemade muffins, and even some Sam’s Club cheesecake. I love the fall season and a lot of that is all due to pumpkin everything!
THREE // Rain
We’ve been getting a lot, like a lot, of rain lately. Last week, it rained every day Monday to Friday. Living in the desert, that never happens. About a month ago, we released school early due to all the flooding in the streets and it’s rained regularly ever since. My students are getting stir crazy with limited recess, but our dry climate appreciates the moisture oh-so-much.
FOUR // Dresses from Amazon!🤷🏻♀️
I’ve heard for a while now that Amazon has good deals on clothes and activewear. (Remember this post?) I’ve never partaken though, but thanks to my husband I didn’t have to. I came home one afternoon to find a spread of dresses laid out for me on the bed! Then a week later, he’d bought me two more, ha. The best part? They all have pockets. I know, y’all. He’s a keeper! Check them out here.
FIVE // Mug Love Exchange 2018
Last year, I participated in the Mug Love Exchange and it was such a good way to get to know Roseann. I knew when it rolled around again that I had to jump on board. This year, I was paired up with another Jessica 🙂 — Jess at Just Jess, in fact! She spoiled me with some really fun stuff, like herbal tea and an adorable cup towel, as well as some Trader Joe’s goodies! I’m especially excited about this, because there’s not a TJ’s within about six hours of here! I cannot wait to dig into those dark chocolate peanut butter cups! Thank you, Jess!
Question: What were your October favorites?
I’m linking up with Stephanie to share the Mug Love Exchange, as well as Momfessionals for Friday Favorites!
Your mug exchange package was perfect! Love doing this exchange every year. And that dress! It looks perfect for fall.
What a sweet package you received! I am a big fan of these exchanges! Getting happy mail makes the day brighter. 🙂
Wow, what a thoughtful hubs. Love pockets in my clothes. I was an elementary librarian for years and absolutely had to have pockets to keep track of things while I was working. Your graphic tee is adorable. I do a lot of that grammar checking, too! A blogger gal I know has an assortment of adorable teacher-y graphic tees.
Your mug exchange goodies were very nice. I was paired with Stephanie, herself, and scored some pumpkin bread mix from Trader Joe’s. We have a similar day’s drive to our closest TJ’s.
Hope you have a sunnier week!
