Let's Shop | Fall

Fall is not my favorite season. I feel like I’m the only one who is passionately obsessed with summer, comfortable with winter, delighted by spring (it means summer is coming) but I dread fall. I don’t love when school starts, things get way too hectic. I don’t love the cooling temperatures. I don’t love the leaves changing. But it’s what it is - fall comes every year.

So I embrace the fall. I buy things that make me happy. I make soup. And stew. And slow cook weird cuts of meat. And I entertain! I love having friends over and making elaborate dinners that impress. Entertaining and making fabulous dinners makes the season pass so much nicer.

How and why I’m using it all

I cannot get enough of the shape of the braiser and Le Creuset’s new peach color is actually the perfect color of pink. I’m making these Pork Chops with Apples tonight in one!
I’m obsessed with my house smelling good. I have three teenagers and a dog. It’s not easy. I burn candles endlessly.
Every night we have a cocktail. It’s the moment at the end of the night that’s the most delightful. The dishes are done, homework is done, we’ve turned on a show and are relaxing. Turns out cute glassware goes a long way to elevating the moment too.
I can’t imagine fall without lots of candles. And when I’m hosting a dinner party I can’t get enough of candle holders.
I play bridge at least once a week. My new obsession is cool playing cards. I’m loving these right now!
Our dining table is really long and thin and a long thin tray has been perfect most of the year - but for fall I’m obsessing over a basket. It seems warmer for the season.
SOUP SEASON! Everyone loves soup season. Soup bowls are an amazing addition to your pantry. Highly recommend.
Sometimes the smallest change makes the biggest difference. I love a hand mixer once in a while - it’s a delightful change from the stand mixer.
