Candy Corn Drink

I love when two of my favorite blogs cross paths!  Eighteen25 and Just Destiny Mag or two blogs I visit daily.  When I say that Just Destiny was doing a feature on Eighteen25 it was a no brainer I had to share.  How perfect is this Candy Corn Drink for a pre-trick-or-treat treat?

Cowboy Bacon Beans

As the days get cooler around here, I'm constantly looking for ways to incorporate heavier foods into our meals.  Cowboy Bacon Beans side dish is a great way to kind of merge warmer months with the cooler months because the baked beans remind you of the many cookouts of summer but they are kicked up a notch with the addition of brown sugar, bacon and chili powder.  Yum!

Guest Bathroom Final Reveal

It's finally done!!!  If you've been following along my journey with decorating our guest bathroom here, here and here, then I hope you're just as excited as I am :-)  I was able to get everything completely finished just in time for guests to actually use it.  I love how everything turned out from the beautiful shade of purple (Sherwin Williams' Vaguely Mauve), and all the contrasting colors patterns and textures used to bring this space to life.  Let me know what you think!

Chocolate & Orange Fall Wedding

Today's wedding is a throwback from about 5 years ago.  This has been my absolutely favorite fall wedding, I just love everything about it from the colors, to the room set-up, the uplighting and all the little details that made it perfect for the couple.  Their wedding day was truly filled with warmth and love.

Spicy Roasted Chicken

This Spicy Roasted Chicken might just be the best marinade that I have had in awhile.  It was the perfect balance of lemon and spice and perfectly moist and tender, I would love to try this grilled!
