Happy Labor Day! I hope you’re spending it in just the way you want whether it be relaxing, enjoying the lake, projects around the house or entertaining. Enjoy the day. We are celebrating my mom’s birthday here today with the family so we’ll be cooking a yummy meal for tonight. Always around the first of September I start craving homemade banana muffins and pumpkin bread as the fall feeling starts to set in. It may be in the nineties here today but the house is filled with the scent of fall spices and fresh baked goodies. Sharing my favorite Banana Streusel Muffin recipe below. I hope you a great short work-week!

These days I go all out for Halloween, then fall for Thanksgiving and out with a giant bang for Christmas. I guess it’s because I have more time now that I’m not running kids here and there but it sure doesn’t seem like...

VINTAGE FRAMED HALLOWEEN GHOST PRINT
08/24/2023
Halloween decor doesn’t get any easier than this. Or any cuter. If you want just a touch of halloween mixed in with fall, this is the perfect option. It’s just an art print framed in a vintage frame. There are many vintage frame options. HERE is the one I chose. And THIS is the print I chose. I think it’s adorable.
