Fall activities: Apple Bites

In the fall my grandparents and i ALWAYS used to go to the 

Apple orchard

and raid it

we would buy apple EVERYTHING

now i live in Louisiana

sadly i don't even think they have one :(

So now i just find things i can do with apples on my own!

I did a baked apple post (here) 

and they were DELICIOUS

then i tired to make apple chips

and burned them :(

However Kelly and Tiramisu did not burn them and loves them

Next apple idea:

APPLE BITES

no need for a reason!

A classic: Breakfast at Tiffanys

The other night the boo and i watched

Breakfast at Tiffanys

we were both so excited because it is deemed a classic

it resulted with the boo falling asleep 

and i was perplexed

(the fashion is what kept me awake)

i appreciate older films

i just did not understand why this was so great

so i set out to do some research googling

and i feel so ashamed that i didn't know it was a book 

and this truly is one of those movies 

where the movie leaves out some major themes of the book

There are themes of 

-stability and freedom

-nature vs culture

- diversity of love

- and apparently massive amounts of symbolism

so now Breakfast at Tiffanys is on the book list

I am really interested in watching more classic movies

plus the boo and i are having a shut in weekend 

filled with movies and ordering pizza

Reading Recommendation: One Day

I originally saw the book One Day 

 recommended on another bloggers page 

and said

"Mental note: Read it"

that mental note didn't stick until

i went home and was at a nail salon with my mom and aunt and saw someone reading 

the book

so then i bought it on my next flight

and i LOVED it

I am not the best at describing why you should ready books but i also think i am pretty picky when it comes to keeping my attention or me even liking books and this one did that.

It does start a little slow but then it becomes fun to connect with the characters.

With this book it is interesting to see where the characters are at in different stages of their lives and how they continue to weave in and out of each others lives.

I will say this book TOTALLY shocked me at the end

and made me cry 

I am even more excited to see the movie

LOVED IT. GO READ IT.

I make myself laugh

This past week was my finals week for term 1 of my last year!

(yay thank you jesus its my last year)

However i SUPER procrastinated and had tons of papers on top of my finals

which was no fun

i think i did homework for three days straight

so to cheer myself up

in between the success of one completed task and the dreading of another 

i baked cookies

and made one have a smily face

and put it in the cookie jar so its staring right at me

and honestly

it makes me laugh every time i open the cookie jar

Aw the little things :)

Daiquiri

Yep thats my puppy's name

and i know i introduced her in my Thursday Latelies

but just in case you didn't get enough

of her cuteness

Here are some pictures:

Proud mom right here <3

Just a little statement piece:

The Peace Belt

World Bag

So my boo got this for me for my birthday

The story behind this bag

My boo moved into a new house with some guy friends

and we found a shed full out antique treasures

i spotted it right away

and said i want this for my birthday

he said

"i think i can handle that"

:)

even better story

he thinks the bag is ugly

then i went to the MN state fair and they were selling this print 

in purses, clutches, shoulder bags and more

boo ya

i know good prints :)

The drink of the moment: Pumpkin Chai

PUMPKIN CHAI

I would like to blame/thank my wonderful friend

Chelsea

* i say blame because now i want this drink constantly

She blogged about this and i didn't even know Starbucks had this

i went to work late just so i could go get one haha

I would emphasize the PUMPKIN and the CHAI part 

so they don't make a Pumpkin Chai Latte

Fall Activities: Baked Apples

When i stumbled across this recipe a few nights ago

it was extremely hard to resist the urge to jump out of bed and make them immediately

Baked Apples with Brown Sugar inside!

I have had the slices of apples baked at Cracker Barrel 

but never cooked this way

Super easy to do!

1) Pick out your pretty apples

2) Core the apple or cut out a little hole

3) Mix the brown sugar in (You can add raisin, pecans, oatmeal)

4) Add a little dab of butter on top of each one

5) Cook in oven for 30-40 minutes, until soft not mushy.

(put 3/4 cup of boiling water in pan with apples 

and pour over apples after you have finished baking

 for more nummy juice)

Here is the whole recipe and more pictures!

Heres the one with oatmeal:

Im no Betty Crocker but i am determined to make some fall/holiday treats this year!

82

The weather in Louisiana has dropped

to 

82 degrees

and yes

i pulled out a scarf

I was raised in Minneapolis, MN

and i am wondering 

perhaps my body is used to the changing off seasons so much

that it doesn't care if it is 80 degrees

it is supposed to be FALL

and i will wear a scarf!

Jealous of Minnesota weather

Fall activities: Center piece

So in the journey of becoming Susie Home maker

Little  94 cent flowers

Fall-ish smelling candles $10

- Pumpkin Spice

- Hazelnut cream

- Warm Vanilla

Strange shaped glass bowl $4

Cut Flowers
