August in Review

Yay, fall is here! August was fun, but I won't lie, I'm really excited it's September. I had my first pumpkin spice latte today, chicken soup is on the stove and it's been raining the past few days. I think fall is my favorite because it's so comforting.

That being said, I will miss the long summer days. Here are a few highlights from August.

Made some awesome thai red curry pizza. So much yum. 

Enjoyed a wine picnic on the bay. Gotta do this more often. 

Met my friend Megan's dog, Hoagie!

Celebrated lots of birthdays, so of course I had to make some cake batter ice cream! 

Wore black and white patterns with green...one of my favorite color combos. 

Listening:  I have been revisiting Neko Case a lot lately. She has such a lovely voice.

Watching: Breaking Bad of course! We also blew through Orange is the New Black on Netflix in about a week. I can't wait for the next season! Have you read the book? I'm thinking about giving it a try. 

Reading: Uhh...not much really. I was lame in terms of reading this month. Gotta get a new book!
