Yep, yep! It’s #TBT, a little throw back Thursday. I am following up on four posts from the past. Often times I write a post and then have more to say about the topic after the fact. Whether it be new information, a total fail, or a shift in thinking.
I included the Limetown podcast in one of my In the Details posts. There are only a few episodes right now {insert sad face emoji}, but holy cow! While it is 100% fiction, it listens as if it is a first person investigative report. The premise is a bit freaky. An entire town’s population disappears under a cloak of mystery. I listened to the second episode right before bed. I will freely admit that I was totally scared and may have woke my husband up when I nearly jumped out of bed. If you are spooked easily, I suggest NOT listening before bed. Episode #3 was just released and I can’t wait. Totally worth a listen!
In this past post, I featured the notes I seem to love in perfume. Upon research, it was evident that I tend to like more masculine scents. Recently I came across a bottle of cologne I bought for my husband years ago. {I actually think he was boyfriend when I gave it to him!} He had it stashed in a drawer, so I decided to start wearing it. This fall I have been layering his cologne with Elizabeth and James//Nirvana Black. I totally suggesting giving yourself a light spray of men’s cologne-I think you may love it!
Ok, so I really wanted these to be perfect. I featured them just last week in my latest In the Details post. We did not love them. However, I am willing to experiment and see if I can make them work. First of all I used a gluten free brownie mix that was slightly smaller than the mix that was called for in the “recipe”. I am thinking that the proportion of mix to pumpkin was off, which messed with the texture. Also, I really wanted the “pumpkin spice” flavor and it was totally lacking. I might try canned pumpkin pie filling or add pumpkin spice. Stay tuned for possibly another follow up…..
When planning to furnish our family room, I became obsessed with bright vintage kilim poufs. Eventually I purchased two new poufs from Anthropologie. Placed in front of our couch instead of a coffee table, they allow for flexible seating for the boys when they are playing video games and are a perfect place to put your feet up when watching a movie. They are not available anymore. I am SO happy I purchased them when I did.
