Autumn Glow Bowl

The autumn winds have been blustery this week, and I’m adoring being able to bundle up in all my fluffy robes, sweaters, and scarves! When the weather is chilly outside, I love to kick on my oven and cook something that will fill the whole house with the delicious scents of autumn’s seasonal goodies. I’ve been craving a nice big, healthy bowl filled with fresh veggies and vitamins to fill me up while keeping my energy up on these cold fall days. My Autumn Glow Bowl is a beautiful combination of gorgeous ruby red beets, roasted brussels sprouts, golden butternut squash, feta cheese, spicy arugula, heart-healthy walnuts, and nutrient-filled quinoa all tossed in a maple-balsamic vinaigrette. This is a soul-satisfying meal that will keep you feeling that autumn glow all season!

Revitalizing Mint, Honey, and Lemon Infused Green Tea

As a mom, my days start early and end late. Mid-afternoon always calls for a pick-me-up and lately I’ve been craving a cold, refreshing iced tea. Our garden has been blooming with herbs recently, and the basil and mint plants are looking beautiful! I decided to try combining some of that vibrant mint into my afternoon tea and it really was a refreshing combination. I always like things a little sweet, so I added some honey and a bit of cleansing lemon juice for a delicious glass full of antioxidants and lively flavors! My Revitalizing Mint, Honey, and Lemon Infused Green Tea will give you a much needed energy boost to your day and cleanse your system to feel your best while hustling through your day!

Kid’s Mini Library: Fall Edition

Fall is here and our mini library is all ready to celebrate the autumn season!

Oh how I LOVE fall! The crisp chill to the air, gorgeous array of leaves, and abundance of fun fall activities like trips to the pumpkin patch that make this time of year so fun! My little wildflowers absolutely love to take nature walks during this time of year. We examine all of the neat fall leaves strewn along the ground, gather acorns they find along the trail, and listen to the howl of the wind rustling through the trees. We’ve updated our little “mini library” shelves in our kids’ room for autumn and set up all of our fall themed books that we love to read this time of year. A few of them my kids just love to read over and over, and it makes my heart so happy when a sweet little one runs up to me with a book and yells “Read it, Mama!” The love of reading is such a treasure, I am thrilled that I’ve been able to pass it down to my kids! 🙂 Here is our fall selection of books we have on our shelves and are enjoying on these brisk autumn afternoons:

What I’m Loving

My Sweet Little Wildflowers

The sun has been shining bright and bringing the last of the summer heat, but a familiar breeze has appeared. We are still enjoying our fun in the sun with pool days, playground trips, and a visit to the aquarium this week, but we are also totally excited to get ready for fall! We’ve enjoyed some fall treats and started picking out new autumn decor for our home, and I am ready to bundle up in a cozy sweater once the weather starts to get blustery. And speaking of some cooler weather, I have a few things I’m loving this week that will start to bring some fall fun into your home too. 🙂
