Fall, my not so secret lover…

Oh Fall. You make my heart happy. Too bad we have only had a few Fall-ish days here in Los Angeles, but I’m still loving it! We had such a cool summer and when that happens, the beginning of Fall acts as Summer here.
Matt and I are about to head out to Olive Garden (because his mom is always sending us gift cards to it, so sweet!) but I wanted to post because I haven’t in a few weeks. Oh and I changed the blog name and layout a bit. Hope you like it :)
Last night I was looking through all the Fall issue magazines I bought last year (we have a tighter budget this year so I’m glad I spent about $60 on magazines last year, they are still as inspiring as last Fall) and getting super giddy about trying out some of the decor and mainly some of the decadent dishes. Yum!
Anyway- a week or so ago I decided to take on the project of hand cutting a bunch of leaves in beautiful Fall colored felt. Tedious but the outcome was quite enjoyable!! Take a look yourself!

P.S. If you have come over here from my Respect Your Mother facebook page, I would love it if you liked my new page, the Folk Collective - I will soon be closing the Respect Your Mother page and will be replacing it with the Folk Collective. Why become a fan? Because from time to time I give exclusive coupon codes! Hurray!
