I loved this month. It was a month of change. New perspectives, new friendships, new inspiration, new beginnings, etc. So much new stuff! December will be even better. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

This month, a lot of great things took place:

First thing’s first. I voted for the first time! When the last presidential elections took place, I was still seventeen. I know, I know. I’m a baby! I also bought myself a garland of tassels from the lovely Everly Design. They make such great party decorations. Was I throwing a party? No. Sometimes you just have to treat yourself. My garland is hanging above my bed right now, which makes for inspiring thoughts upon waking up. Although, I’ve been spending most nights on the couch since our Christmas tree makes everything feel so dang cozy.

 

Somewhere along the way, I turned 22. I celebrated probably for a full twenty four hours. And I created a hypothetical wish list. Switzerland may not be happening anytime soon, but you know I’m making that pizza asap. I created some goals to focus on throughout this year, which I think will be fun and (hopefully) not stressful.

Speaking of cooking, I’ve kinda sorta developed an interest in cooking. I have never enjoyed it much but I needed a new way to keep busy. For Thanksgiving, I looked up a bunch of yummy lookin’ cranberry sauce recipes and I decided to make red wine cranberry sauce. So good. I have been cooking for a couple of weeks now, and I am liking it! It’s weird.

I have become obsessed with finding the perfect vintage poncho. Actually, I may have found it at a vintage shop the other day, but I didn’t even buy it. Hooray for self control :) Soon, though, I’ll have one of these wearable daytime blankets.

And last but not least, I created my first outfit post! I’m a plain jane kind of lady (though I do love me some brightly colored pants). I like being comfy. But I also shop a lot, and I thought that outfit posts would help me to mix it up more. Only in this post, I’m wearing 80% Target, so… I’ll try again later :)

Well, I’m off to help a friend shoot a wedding today! Happy last day of November.
