Favorite Things: Vol. XXX

Favorite Things

Typing in the title for this blog post, I had to triple check to make sure it was truly volume 30! It’s hard to believe that I started this blog a little over a year and a half ago, and even though I didn’t really start committing to it until I was like 8 months in, time has flown by. I appreciate every single one of you who subscribe and check in regularly to support my little blog. I’m always trying to improve, so if there’s anything you want to see more of on the blog, let me know!

Since 30 feels like a big number, I tried to include more things than normal in this episode of Favorite Things 🙂 Have a happy weekend!

Live.Love.Carnaval.

I’m attempting to transition to more fall colors with my manicures, but I’m having trouble letting go of the idea that summer is almost over! In person, this color is a bit more orange/coral, but it’s super subtle. I’m really digging this SNS color though!

My New Favorite Photo Backdrop

Since G and I moved to a more rural area, we are constantly commenting on how gorgeous this field is right by our house. We think they might be growing soybean (comment if you know what plant it is!). The light has been so pretty around sunset, so G took some pictures of me in the field a couple weeks ago.

Outfit details: Shirt / similar skirts: option 1, option 2 / hat

Bojangles Cajun Filet Biscuit with Pimento Cheese

G jokingly calls me the “mayor of Bo-town” because of my love affair with Bojangles, and I honestly need Bojangles to sponsor me at this point. It’s one of my major weaknesses because it is really hard to beat their hash browns, seasoned fries, and above all else: their cajun filet biscuit. They recently added pimento cheese to their menu so that you can add it to any sandwich. I love it on the chicken cajun filet biscuit– if you haven’t tried it yet, you’re going to love it!

Bachelor In Paradise

Is anyone else watching Bachelor In Paradise this season? I know it’s so stupid but it cracks me up haha

If you’re watching this season, hopefully this tweet makes you laugh 🙂

Everyone in #BachelorNation looking into tickets for Stagecoach so they can meet all the boys from the bachelor franchise #BachelorInParadise https://t.co/RI917VVaMw

Orvis River Road Waxed Cotton Jacket

This is definitely more of a splurge item than I would normally share with y’all, but it has been in my cart for over a year now, and I’m trying to decide if I should pull the trigger and just buy it. It is the anorak style jacket that I love, but a bit warmer and much better quality than ones I have owned in the past. It reminds me a lot of the super pricey Barbour jackets, which are much more expensive than this one! It is available in Orvis stores and online for $249. It is also available on Amazon for the same price, but I have seen the price lower on Amazon in the off season.

Alternate View

The Southerner’s Handbook

I’ve lived in North Carolina for 16 years now, so at this point, I consider myself a southerner. I bought this book off Amazon as a coffee table book and I love it! It’s super cute and perfect for stacking.

Where the Crawdads Sing

I’ve started reading again (YAY!) and just started Where the Crawdads Sing at the recommendation of like 20 different people. It’s super good so far. If you’re going on a road trip any time soon and are interested in hearing the story through audiobook, you can get it (and another book!) for free on Audible.

When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fier When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fierce love and protectiveness I was overcome with. It was (and still is) terrifying having my heart exist outside of my body and trusting it to the world. 
Motherhood is the greatest gift and hardest job I’ve ever had. Being both a ‘forever mom’ and a foster mom has formed me into a stronger, more passionate, more empathetic, and creative version of myself. My life and work before kids felt important and meaningful, but raising kind, caring kids to impact their future communities and world feels like my most important purpose yet ❤️

With a little DIY ladder, flowers, and the help of @treepoetry.us (thank you for gifting us with the door and glow-in-the-dark mushrooms!! 🍄) we basically have a fairy village going on! 🏡🧚🧚‍♀️🏠
This is so much more fun for my toddler to play with and we say that Mack the fairy comes out here to play with his friends 🥰 #toddlermom #whimsy #whimsicalchildhood #fairygarden #positivemotherhood
