The Scoop

Hey gang! How is your week so far? Mine is fabulous! I am writing this post on Monday midday and so far I have walked the dogs twice, been to the gym for a weight lifting session, got my nails done at the salon and hit Walmart and Starbucks all in one swoop.

Our highs today will be in the low 70s which is perfect for me. I am going to take it easy the rest of the day and enjoy a slower pace. Over the weekend I picked up a jigsaw puzzle and set up my card table and I work on it a little bit throughout the day. I find it a relaxing activity that keeps my mind busy but restful too. Even my husband stops by to work on it a little bit.

I just saw a recipe online that is a pumpkin pie with a ginger cookie crust that I am thinking about making. I think I can substitute some healthier ingredients and it would be pretty good. My husband won’t eat butter. If he sees it in the kitchen or hears me mention using it he looks looks like a vampire caught in the light so I am always looking for alternatives. Now me, I love butter but do try to control myself. Luckily I have found almost any healthy oil can be used instead.

If you have any thoughts on alternatives to butter let me know please.

My Look

This is fun fall look. I am wearing a Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice tee, Levi’s jeans, a Long Cognac colored cardigan, tan belt and leopard pumps. My Louis Vuitton Never Full MM tote worked just right with this look.
