Feels Like Fall

The weather is finally cooling down. Finally!! And staying cool. We had a few "Fall weather teasers" in September. Then the temps went back up. And I wanted to cry. But now, it's pretty official. Fall is here. And here to stay!!

That means sweaters, scarves, boots, and maybe a jacket. :) It also means long walks with my hubby. On crunchy leaves. That have turned beautiful colors. Crisp mornings. Started with warm cups of coffee. And tons of pumpkins. Don't you just love Fall? I do!!

I started decorating our home. Over the weekend. With some adorable bits and pieces. That I found at Target and the Dollar Tree. Love!! And now, I'm just looking for some "fashion inspiration." I'm thinking tons of layers. And warm, luscious colors!!

I found this little treat on Pinterest. I know!! But it's my "go-to" for everything!! Back to this outfit. Please tell me you love it. Because I do!! I've got leggings and a similar scarf. I happened to see some similar legwarmers, and boots at Payless recently. Looks like I'm going to have to make a trip back there. ;) Oh, and I guess I need to go shopping. You know, for a sweater and clutch.

I have 2 of the 6 major pieces. I know, that's not a lot. But it's a start. And all these pieces can be mixed with stuff I already have. To make even more outfits. Between, I just adore this outfit. And well, it's my treat to myself. For Fall. :)

Tastes Like Fall :)

I've said this a million times, I'm not a cook. Not a good one anyways. I try. And try hard. But I think this is going to be a long process. But I'm trying. And if you've noticed lately, in my "Favorite Blog List," I've added a ton of cooking blogs. I need some help. And a little inspiration.

While searching through Cooking Classy, I noticed this simple little dip. And it sounded delish!! Did I mention, easy peasy. Yes, it's something that I could definitely handle. :) Now just look at how yummy this picture is!!

I've also mentioned a few hundred times, that we meet our "Mariachi Family," every Tuesday and Thursday. There are only a handful of us, that live here. In the "big city." Everyone else, lives about 45 minutes away. And our church, is actually about an hour from our home. But it's a nice little deal, that we have going on. Church, great friends, and a yummy dinner. :)

Mems always, and I mean ALWAYS, cooks dinner for us. And it's always so yummy! We leave with bellies full. And hearts overflowing. :) And while Mems does all the cooking, all the time, others bring treats too. Chiquitita is well known for her cupcakes. They are little bites of Heaven!! Oh my!!

I've decided to try and contribute something this week. I'm going to make a double batch of this pumpkin pie dip. For tomorrow. I might even make some on Wednesday. We're having a family dinner at my abuelitos' house. Yay, this is the first time, that I feel really confident about something I've made. Even if it's a simple recipe.
