Friday Favorites from Boulder Locavore, Honestly Yum, Jillian Harris and More

October 27, 2018 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 3 Comments

Good morning. I cannot believe that this is the last week of October that means we have 60 days left until Christmas. On the one hand it is a little scary and on the other hand, “it is the most wonderful time of the year” so let the fun begin!

I found some great things this week, I hope that you enjoy the links.

Doesn’t this Pumpkin Spice Steamer from Jillian Harris looks delicious? It is made with almond milk and coconut cream. I cannot wait to try it.

Next to pizza, anything meal that includes cheese is my favorite meal. The Ultimate Fondue Party fro Sugar and Charm is my kind of party.

I love butternut squash but what a pain in the butt it is to peel, cut and roast. I try to buy it already cut at the store to save time but this past week they were out so I was forced to get zoodles. I have never had them before and they were perfect with browned butter and sage, we served them with pumpkin sausage which made them even better. I used this recipe from Boulder Locavore.

Oh my goodness this Halloween Candy Charcuterie Board from Honestly Yum is fabulous! I would love one of these at a party. 

Isn’t this ghost cake from Kanela and Lemon cute? This chocolate cake and four others are featured on my other blog Once Upon A Chocolate Life today. 

Here are some more Great Halloween Baked Treats if you need more ideas.

And 20 Halloween Cocktails.

Halloween Lolipops

If you like caramel apples and do not feel like making your own you could order a few. I personally like to make my I always make too many and then eat them all. Never good if you are watching your caloric intake.

Or my favorite, 

French Toast!

I hope that you have a wonderful week and as always please share your finds, recipes and more.

    It just amazes me how creative these food bloggers are with the food they create and how pretty it is. My creativity does not reach into those areas, but I admire seeing what all they come up with. Happy weekend!

    You are right, it is a little scary that it's only two months until Christmas but this is the most wonderful time of the year! I've even begun listening to Christmas music already. You've given so many great ideas here for the days of entertaining ahead. I've already made a note of recipes and The Provence Cure…and now must go see more of that cute chocolate cake!

Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in women? Ladies if you don’t take care of yourself no one else can, eat right and get moving, cardio vascular exercise is great for your heart!

This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life This is how I feel tonight, as if I am seeing life through the blur of tears and sorrow. Sunday night my friend of 34 years lost her husband of 36 years, because of Covid he did not get to meet or hold his newborn grandson. Then just an hour ago we received a call that my husbands best friend died of a massive heart attack this morning. Sometimes life just knocks you to your knees and all you can do is pray for the  loved ones you’ve lost, cherish their memories and let your time with them sustain you until you meet again. Then you ask God for the strength to get up and move forward. #life #loss #givemestrength #givemestrengthlord #pray
Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping Although I see signs of spring, a daffodil popping up from the ground, bright and colorful flowers in the garden center the weather and the calendar tell me otherwise. So I am hunkering down and taking solace inside enjoying the details of a collected home and life. This tapestry is a piece that we purchased over 25 years ago in Paris, it hang in the dining room and makes me smile every time I see it because it reminds me of such a happy and beautiful place. What do you collect? What brings you joy in your home? #collectedhome #collectedlook #homedecor #myhome #homesweethome #interiordesign #frenchprovincial #france #frenchdecor #tapestry #instahome #instahomedecor #acolectedlife #collection
Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. Good afternoon friends, it’s a frigid day here. How is it in your “neck of the woods?” We took a long road-trip a few weeks ago to the beautiful @colonialwmsburg . I love this place, there is so much to see and do and even wearing masks and social distancing you can still enjoy the history and the beauty of this living museum. Today I am home doing the weekend chores, and of course doing a little baking. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend. #colonialwilliamsburg #williamsburg #colonialhouse #livinghistory #livinghistorymuseum #museum #winterfun #roadtrip #wanderlust #weekend #weekendvibes #weekendmood
