Friday Favorites from Cooks with Cocktails, Cooks with Cocktails,Sugar & Charm and More

September 22, 2018 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 7 Comments

Good morning! Happy Friday. I am so happy its Friday because I have 2 days with minimal barking and no contractors. If you missed my post yesterday I mentioned that it has been a bit of a challenging week with the contractors coming in and out and my pups barking non-stop from 7:30 until the contractors leave for the day among other things.

Needless to say by the end of today I will be sitting with a slice or two of pizza, a cocktail and a good book easing my way into the weekend.

Saturday is the first day of Fall and although it does not feel like it yet I am bookmarking Fall foods, decor, fashion and more. A big bowl of soup is a comforting and easy meal especially on a cool Fall day, this Crockpot Chicken Noodle Soup from the Chunky Chef looks like the a great one to try.

Cooks with Cocktails Image

This Hot Gruyere Cheese and Onion Dip from Cooks with Cocktails looks perfect for game day or a party. I do not watch football games but I love football food. 

I made a batch of these Valdosta Pecans wit Cranberries and Orange and they are delicious and a great snack.

I cannot wait to make these Pumpkin Spice Sunflower Cupcakes. I love the spices of Fall and I will get to try my hand at a little cake decorating.

If you like chocolate desserts come and check out My Friday Favorites All Things Chocolate!

Interesting Reading 

The Education of Bill Oliver

Great post from It’s All in the Detail about Kintsugi (or Kintsukuroi, which means “golden repair”).

Worry Less About Crumbling Roads and More About Crumbling Libraries

Inside Italy’s Fashion Economy

Finds

I have no where to wear this dress but I love everything about it, the color the cut and the style. Maybe you are looking for a dress to wear to a fancy Fall/Winter event, if so this might be a contender.

I love orange and recently ordered this sweater from J.Crew. 

Cute placemats for Halloween. My grandkids will love them.

I am getting ready to make my first pumpkin pie and this year I think I will try my hand with a little decorative leaf crust. If you would like to as well you can get the cutters here, and  here .

I love this book. 

And this cookbook from Smitten Kitchen. 

My husband got this Blackwatch plaid Orvis wax jacket while we were in Maine and it is a beautiful jacket. Sadly they do not make it in a woman’s. 

Just started reading The Muralists, Have you read it? 

That’s all I have for this week. Please share your recipes, books, movies and whatever else you discovered this week. I love your suggestions and always discover something new from you!

Have a great weekend.

    I have not read this book. That pie is too pretty to eat. And I suppose this blog is my diary! Enjoy your barkless, hopefully non-problematic weekend.
