A Case of the Mondays

From time to time we all get it--a case of the Mondays. Today happens to be that day. Rather than going for that morning run I promised myself, I woke up and enjoyed some hot apple cider and a slice of fresh zucchini bread. Even though school has yet to start up again and the summer staples of dresses and flip-flops are still prevalent, I can't help but nestle myself into Fall mode. With every season comes a new wardrobe and today I've found myself doing more than my fair share of online shopping.

Hunter boots may be considered "in style" at the moment but for someone living in the Pacific Northwest, these boots will forever be a life-saver.

With every new school year I like to treat myself to a new back-to-school goody. This year it happened to be the classic Boat and Tote Bag by L.L. Bean.

Perfect for school, the farmer's market, and trips back home.

Blogging

I have to admit, I never thought I'd actually start my own blog. But alas, here I am. Thanks to StumbleUpon I began "stumbling" upon hundreds (okay, maybe not hundreds but lots) of blogs that appealed to me for one reason or another. In an effort to, shall we say, domesticate myself a bit more, I've set out to learn about baking, crafts, and all things motherly. From what I can see from the blogging community, there is no shortage of blogs about either. Consider this an insight into the mind of a lost--no, temporarily misplaced--person looking to find herself through new experiences, new hobbies and perhaps a new wardrobe.
