Intriguing name, right? 🙂 This was actually my first time making homemade pecan pie (of course I used a store bought crust but STILL)! I went to a “Friendsgiving” last night (we actually call it “Fakesgiving”), so this seemed like an appropriate dessert to bring for the crowd. But honestly, now that I’ve made it, I think that anyone could…

Howdy friends! We have made it to yet another Friday, and I managed to pull myself together to write a Favorite Things post! It’s kind of blowing my mind that we are already in November, it feels like yesterday that I was writing my 2018 Visions and here we are a couple months away from 2019 (ahhh!) I have big…

Macaroni and cheese is always a crowd pleaser, but I can be picky about certain things…

Now that we have made it to September, I’m ready for fall y’all 😍 With Hurricane Flo last week, things here in Charlotte cooled down a hair, but this week we are back to regularly scheduled 90+ degree weather! While it was still cooler, I had the chance to wear this new sweater I bought at Anthropologie. Who says you…
