Happy Friday!
How about that little bit of crazy weather we had yesterday? I loved it- until it turned from snow to ice on my way to work.
This weekend is pretty low-key. Kendall is working most of the weekend, but I’m actually going to a memorial for one of my high school administrators on Sunday. Mrs. Beach was an incredible lady and will be very missed by the St. Andrew’s community. I’m also going to Olney for the Sunday night church service to meet a new congregant who went to Rider a few years ahead of me. Sunday will be a day of reflection, for sure.

What I bought & what I want
I get my inspiration largely from other women my age who do cool things. Kelly Dempsey has been a role model of mine since she was on Project Runway and then graciously participated in an #wcw post for me. Supporting my girl with a Kelly From The Deli crewneck? Want plz.
My bff Amazon actually recommended this sweater for me and I’ll take one in every color.
I think I’m just going sweater crazy. I kind of love the distressed look of the Guide Me To Happiness Striped Sweater in Mocha.
Don’t forget you can always peek at my wish list over in my sidebar. Here’s what I’m currently craving:
Around the internet
I mentioned this on my Instagram but until the end of this week (Nov. 13-18, 2018), Brandless donate 3 meals for every order on brandless.com, which will all be directed to those affected by the wildfires in Northern and Southern California. People have lost their homes and their possessions, but with small acts of kindness, we can show them that they have not lost their communities.
Cold weather and salt from the roads always irritate my throat. I don’t like taking cold medicine because it knocks me on my butt the following day. However, I wouldn’t mind trying homemade bourbon cough syrup! via wide open EATS
I’m all about trying weird foods, but Christmas tree chips?! Apparently though, they taste a bit like rosemary, so I’d probably like them! via Insider
I’m not being dramatic but this Thanksgiving Cheeseboard is ART! I love all the seasonal fruit that gives it such great color! via Classy Girls Wear Pearls
To go along with that, why not try a new drink for Thanksgiving- like this Fall Apple Cider Spritz? via The Fashionably Broke
In the past, I’ve devoted an entire post to stores closed on Thanksgiving, but the list keeps growing (YAY!) and it just seemed more efficient to share someone else’s extensive list. Please consider giving these businesses your patronage! via InvestorPlace
