{scrambled eggs w/feta, mushrooms + chives makes Saturday breakfast at home feel extra decadent}

 

Well, this week really felt like we are full swing into Fall. The weather has been crisp and lovely and I've happily been breaking in my new leather jacket {one that I've been searching for for a very long time}. We've been sleeping with the windows open and I just love that cool air coming in while snuggled under a warm blanket. It's my favorite season, indeed. I went out one evening this week for a new book club with a great group of gals and it was refreshing to have a girls night out. I only knew one person out of 8, but it was so fun to have drinks, munch on chips & guac and get to know some new friends. This weekend, we have a birthday party and Penelope's music class starts up again. Outside of that, I'm really looking forward to Saturday morning snuggles and getting on top of some outstanding administrative items at home. I hope you all have a truly fantastic weekend!
