THE WEEKEND EDIT JUST COMMIT OR BE …
Happy Weekending! What plans do you have for the long weekend? According to Pinterest and Instagram, it is now acceptable to add pumpkins to our front porches or kitchen counters.
Our daughter’s wedding is in less than a week. Some (one) of us is a little tightly wound this weekend with last-minute to-do lists and reminders.
I just about lost my blank when my husband leaned the cutting board against the kitchen backsplash “to dry.” Just commit to a towel, dry both sides and put it in the designated cutting board drawer.
My family may use a different interpretation or tense for the same word for what to do with me.
I loved your responses to last week’s questions! Pat’s “Country Roads” was perfect. Send me your favorite driving theme songs I am going to create a playlist!

QUESTION
When do you haul out the fall decor?

RECIPE ON REPEAT FOR FALL

RECIPE NOTES: I love these Spinach tots! The ingredients are simple and they make a great appetizer or I have them for dinner when it’s a “fend for yourself” night.

I would love it if you subscribed to the Weekend Edit. You can sign up here for a Saturday morning easy-breezy newsletter. Thank you!


Congrats on your baby girls wedding. This time next week, the craziness will be over and back to normal.
I don’t want to wish this week away, but I did wakeup this morning thinking a week from today ….
How exciting my friend. Beta “a practice site” love it xo
I have a hard time putting the brakes on decorating for fall as of September 1st. I try to add just a few nods to the season, but I love this time of year, especially once the weather cools so I add a few things when the mood strikes (everyday) until the season officially begins.
Enjoy this coming week and try to keep every little detail in your memory bank. I know the wedding will be beautiful. Congratulations.

Congrats on being a beta site for an Amazon store! Best of luck with it.
I love all things fall but I am trying hard not to buy any more decorative items and just use what I have. I keep thinking about needing to downsize one day and that helps me control what I buy, at least most of the time!
We started watching The Morning Show on Apple TV–Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon are both in it. It has been on a few years but when it began we did not have Apple TV.
Have a wonderful week ahead… don’t stress over wedding preparation–enjoy!!
Thank you Pat! We love the Morning Show. Waiting for season 3. Yes, I am starting to relax!
Next year I am buying peaches from your grandson! xo
