Weekend Reading 10.24.2020
Happy Saturday! Chris and I kicked off the weekend with an early morning run/hike at a local preserve for my takeover with Sebago Clean Waters, a local conservation org. It was a very early morning preceded by a very sleepless night, so I’m taking it easy for the rest of the day (I’m currently drinking kombucha in bed, what luxury!). My brother also flew back to Oregon this morning, another reason for the early wake-up call, and I’m sad to see him go. It was so nice to have him around for a while. With his departure and with November so close, I feel as though we’re quickly approaching the hunker down season. The days have been a bit grey and there was talk of a little snow in the forecast. It’s always so interesting to me how my tastes change with the seasons – gone is my interest in smoothies! Give me all the hot soups and roasty root vegetables. We’re planning a cozy night in tonight (I say that as though not every night has been a “night in”. Let me assure you, they have been). Maybe a good Halloween movie is in order. I hope your weekend is relaxing, with just enough excitement. xo

If you need to stock up on clean beauty – now is the time! Save 20% off at Credo until tomorrow! Here’s what I’m picking up: My favorite gentle cleanser, this gentle retinol serum, this under $20 body wash (so fresh after a workout and the bottle lasts forever), this top-rated clean mascara, this serum concealer, this sophisticated perfume (so fresh but not floral), and this highlighter base

I don’t really decorate for Halloween, but how cute is Rachel’s googly eye gallery wall?! Makes me want to do something similar to my plants!
Looking to add a pop of color to your winter wardrobe? This coat is perfection and 50% off with the code ‘FRIDAY’! Also very much into this drapey velvet shirt
Need something to do with all those apples you picked? Me too. This apple cake sounds so good and wholesome, and a nice break from pie or apple crisp
Love following along with Joanna’s new home journey! I love New England but if I didn’t live here, I’d absolutely live in the PNW (and not the city)

Very very into this quilted coat. Those sleeves!
