We put pumpkins on our stoop this week so I guess I’ll finally accept fall. And the fact that it’s soup season, my favorite part of October-March. I made the first soup on this list on Monday and then this chicken pot pie soup on Wednesday and both were a hit with the whole family.
I am feeling a little overwhelmed with life and emotions and a bunch of things going on right now so I don’t have much else to share today but hoping that the weekend gives me the recharge I need.
Have a great weekend! xx
AROUND THE WEB

I’m so excited to watch The Luckiest Girl Alive. I loved the book and just saw that came out as a movie on Netflix.
The Tuckernuck fall collection knocked it out of the park. This blackwatch button-down with puff sleeves is my personal favorite. Along with this waxed/faux fur reversible vest.

Green chili pasta? Color me intrigued.
The RHOBH reunion trailer is what my reality TV dreams are made of. And Vulture’s recap of the finale was fantastic, as always. Are you team Kathy or Rinna?
