Trick or Treat!

Happy Halloween, everyone! I'm really looking forward to all of the trick-or-treaters tonight! I'm planning to cut out of the office as early as humanly possible so I don't miss a single cute costume. What are you (or your precious little goblins) dressing up as?

Me? Well, Joe and I were Doug Funnie and Patti Mayonnaise for the annual Halloween party. For work though, I decided to err on the side of tradition and voila!

And with a little extra color... you get this!

I'll get you my pretty. And your little dog, too!

Have a great night everyone! P.S. You know what tomorrow is, right? Time to start thinking about Christmas! Bwahaha.

Fall-o-ween Front Porch Reveal

Yay! We're no longer the eyesore on the block! Our house is officially ready for trick-or-treaters. We decided to take a bit more of an autumnal approach to Halloween decorating this year. I'm calling it Fall-o-ween! A whole lot of FALL with some HALLOWEEN on the side. 

Come take a peek!

How To: Enjoy a Pomegranate in Five Minutes or Less

!!WARNING: POMEGRANATES WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS TUTORIAL!!

Pomegranate season is upon us! If you have never enjoyed one of these babies, buy one! Right now. Seriously, get on that.

Once Autumn has arrived, I patrol the produce stands for those yummy jewels. The only pain in the tush is actually popping out the little arils (the edible portion of the fruit) in what I would consider a "timely manner." I used to individually pick out each and every seed (for what took like an hour) until I found this ridiculously easy trick.

Check it out!

Team Colors Football Wreath

E-A-G-L-E-S, EAGLES!

We are definitely one of *those* football households. Beginning in September, there is never any question of "what are we doing on Sunday?" We already know. We run out for special hot wings early in the afternoon. Cheese and crackers have a special place on the coffee table. Only during commercials do we dare have a conversation. With a beer in hand, we cheer way too loud. We rep our teams colors with pride... even though we are having a pretty crappy season so far. 

A couple of weeks ago, I thought that a wreath would be the perfect way to dress up our Hunter Green door with a bit of [Chip] Kelly Green. Fly, Eagles, fly!

It's nothing complicated... just a basic styrofoam wreath form, wrapped in white yarn, with touches of gray and green for our beloved Birds.

Family Rules Chalkboard Art - Free Print!

Hi ladies! Last month, I shared this Family Rules Print with the folks over at Sumo's Sweet Stuff. Summer is pretty fantastic in her own right, so hopefully you already follow her and saw this chalkboard goodness in September. If not, enjoy!

With the holidays right around the corner (yep, you heard me -- right.around.the.corner), imagine how precious of a gift this would be for the families from church, your favorite neighbors, or even your own extended family.
