Autumn Bucket List 2021

We are into Autumn already as of September 22nd! WEEEEEEEEE! It’s my favorite season. I spent some time this week writing down my Autumn Bucket List 2021 in my Currently Workbook (2022 version coming soon!).

Here are some of my intentions for the season!

Autumn Bucket List 2021

Dinner party with friends? (pandemic permitting?)
mushroom soup!
read a book or two (just started Conscious Loving)
make our home cozy (you can see more of it on #shutterbeanhouse)
make apple pie
take photos of my office
driving adventure
fall capsule wardrobe (going through my closet!)
go for more hikes
farmer’s market (take photos!)

I am going to be gathering some seeds too!

Here’s my Autumn Bucket List from last year!

I really do enjoy putting together these vignettes. It helps me be more intentional about time. It has become a nice ritual to collect items that catch my eye during the season and place them in the frame.

If you would like to join in on making an Autumn Bucket List, you can download one from my shop here!

I’d love to see what you’re up to this Autumn.

Sourdough Pizza Dough

If you got into the sourdough revolution like me, have you made Sourdough Pizza Dough? If you haven’t, you should!

This recipe makes three pizzas. Great for our family of three 🙂 We all can do whatever we want with our pizzas.

All you need is to get your sourdough starter fed, some flour, and water and you’re good to go. It’s less time-consuming than making sourdough bread and you can make a legit dinner with it!

Happy Monday, friends!

This weekend we had baseball and a birthday hike/dinner! We also are almost finished with Mare of Easttown. That series hooked me in. We are on week 38 of 2021. Let’s take a moment to take a deep breath and write down our Intentions for the Week! Here’s what’s on the docket:

My Everyday Life Week 37

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 37

I have to get another mammogram soon to get another look. I’m trying to stay positive. I posted about it on my Instagram stories and heard from so many people who have been in the same boat. There were a few older women who left comments and this one made me feel comforted. It’s something my Mom would have said.

It meant that I spent less time online this week. I gave myself some space to think.

A reminder to breathe.

Staying still while a hummingbird flies by.
