bare bones and branches

(trying scones and cookies at the Cookie Jar Bakery.) 

(flats: h&m, everything else is vintage or thrifted) 

   Even with the 90 degree temperatures of this Thursday afternoon, I tried to imagine it was autumn. Although it was semi-hard with not being able to get my coffee warm or wear layers of any kind, some themed cookies and pumpkin items did the trick. I also took today to "de-stress" myself, watched some New Girl, read some old National Geographics, lit some fall smelling candles, drink the last of my homemade chai, and laughed at my cats getting scared by the rain that happened this evening. I believe this school semester will become less of a burden and more of an exciting time... I have officially decided to change my major to Middle School Language Arts. Change just happens to be my middle name, if you don't already know that. 

   With the want of cool chills and woolly scarves running through my veins  I made a my seasonal to-do list today for fall, which I will share with you after the "official" season of fall begins next week. I am hoping to complete a few of those items this weekend, because everyone knows this season brings the best festivals... and they seem to be happening every weekend from here on out.
