have a chilly weekend.

{via elina nilsson}


I'm completely in love with the cold weather we've been having in Savannah this week! Waking up with the windows open and all snuggled under the covers to stay warm is probably one of my favorite things ever. I plan on filling this weekend with cold outdoor activities, pumpkin lattes, and tater beer. Have a great weekend! 

Around the internet:
1. Absolutely adorable. 
2. I excel at numbers 4, 7, and 9. 
3. Yum.
4. Maybe I'll send these engagement cards out. 
5. Who wouldn't want to live in the world of the Royal Tenenbaums?

chilly uniform

Today it actually feels like fall. It is cold. I'm sitting at my computer with a very large knit scarf {much like the one shown here} and drinking hot chai {don't worry, the windows are still open}. This change in weather has me really rethinking my wardrobe. I feel like there's serious lack of fall clothes, I think I have 3 flannel shirts and 2 sweatshirts that I wear pretty frequently {everyday}. I need a new uniform, perhaps some of these fine items.

brainstorming {halloween costumes}

{via oh happy day!}

I wish I could be better about Halloween costumes. I always have high hopes for dressing up but I never get my act together. Maybe this year I'll do it {probably not}. These costumes from two of my favorite movies may just inspire me to create my own. I LOVE the Fantastic Mr. Fox costumes, I really wanted to be the rat last year but thought it would be a little too  obscure. Everyone would recognize Mr. and Mrs. Fox though right? 

darn you apple!

It's items like these that really make me wish I still had an iphone or a powerbook. 

paper dolls show

I may have mentioned this before, but I'm kind of obsessed with watercolors at the moment. I think it goes along with my soft colors, fabrics, and romantic looks right now. Anyway, I stumbled across Paper Dolls Show shop and instantly fell in love with her prints. While I would like to purchase all of them, I really think that ice cream cone is fantastic. It may make it's way to the Christmas list. 

sunday sweets {pumpkin pancakes}

This weekend was jam-packed with wedding planning, so I didn't have as much time to devote to baking. I was able to squeeze in a little breakfast though, and with the beautiful weather we are having, it was the perfect excuse to sit outside and eat pancakes. 

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons vinegar
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions:

1. Mix together the egg, milk, oil, pumpkin puree, and vinegar. In a separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Add dry ingredients to pumpkin mixture, stir until just combined.

2. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour or scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture into the griddle for each pancake. Cook on both sides until brown. 

Enjoy! 

fall wedding invites

How beautiful are these fall invitations from Julia Kostreva of Studio on Fire? I saw them on Once Wed today and thought that since we're in the midst of planning a fall wedding, I had to share them. I'm in love with the technique and colors they used. Definitely going in the "wedding inspiration" pile.
