Have you started planning your Thanksgiving menus yet my friends?! Because it’s pretty much all I can think about! And this fig infused vodka cocktail is on my list. That’s right, I’ve got instruction below for how to infuse vodka with figs- because OH MY GOD WHAT HAVE WE BEEN DOING WITH OUR LIVES IF NOT DRINKING FIG INFUSED VODKA?! Seriously. WHAT?! I hope you love this one as much as I do! xx- Sarah {this post was produced in collaboration with Sarah Dickenson}
7 For All Mankind X Movember
It’s that time of year, when men (and women) across the world band together in mustache solidarity to raise awareness about men’s health issues- specifically prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health… Aka Movember! I think it’s a genius way to raise money and shed light on a few very important men’s health issues. This year 7 For All Mankind is supporting the cause with their limited edition Movember Jean- of which $20 from each sale is donated to Movember! So I’m donning a pair to show my support- for 7 For All Mankind, for Movember, for the health and happiness of us all! They’re pretty great, right? And nothing beats a feel-good clothing purchase. OH!! And if you purchase between Oct 29- November 4th they’ll include a complimentary Help a Bro, Grow Your Mo tee. BONUS! xx- Sarah {This post as produced in collaboration with 7 For All Mankind. Thank you for your continued support of our sponsors!}
Inspiring Spaces
I know I’ve mentioned it before, but it’s a dream of ours to someday build a home. And one of the things in this fantasy home that I imagine is a library, or at the very least an impressive wall of books somewhere. And it’s never too early to start collecting inspiration for a fantasy dream home- so here we are! Aren’t these all amazing?! xx- Sarah via 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5
Arugula, Fig and Fried White Sweet Potato Salad
Our fig tree is going bonkers right now and I’ve been harvesting figs like it’s my job! And finding different ways to eat them like it’s my full-time hobby. That’s how this tasty salad was born! It’s the exactly the kind of salad I’d serve to friends at a dinner party- each plate carefully crafted and beautiful. I’d pair it with white wine, this soup, a crusty loaf of french bread, and some mellow music playing in the background. When we have friends over for dinner it’s my favorite thing in the world to knock their socks off with a delicious meal so I don’t mind a little extra effort than I would spend on a normal meal for Lou and I. AND: fried white sweet potatoes, so there’s that! Anyway, I hope you enjoy! xx- Sarah
Green Apple Mojito
I should start by telling you these taste as good as they look. Which is no easy feat because they’re such fun and pretty drinks! I love that they incorporate Fall apples but not in a way that’s expected. Mojitos are at the top of my favorites list and Sarah knocked it out of the park on this one (as usual)! Happy cocktailing everyone! xx- Sarah {this post was produced in collaboration with Sarah Dickenson}
Winter Coat Hunting
I finally found the perfect winter coat! Since we decided to move back to SanDiego I’ve known that I’m going to need to step up my winter game and get a few pieces to keep me cozy. And first on the list was a lightweight winter jacket. I hunted and stalked and finally landed on this Vince number. I love it so much! I can dress it up or down, the color is beautiful, it’s not bulky (my pet peeve about winter clothes) and it’s so soft + cozy! Thank you Vince, well done!!! xx- Sarah
