Obsessions

To some obsessed may seem a bit dramatic, maybe even an over statement of how much we really like something.

It’s a word that is commonly used among us girls, I’m not sure why but I think my friends and I all use this word far too often.

I mean it’s not like I couldn’t live without these things, but I’d probably be a bit sad if I had to.

With that being said I’m going to show you all what I’ve been “obsessed” with lately.

Yah, no shame here.

Pumpkin pie balls.

Another delicious and easy snack to have on hand!

Especially for days where I’m on the go and smaller snacks are the easiest to bring around.

I’ll write up the recipe for you all soon!

Home made Americanos.

Say what? No starbucks.

This is a clear shocker over here.

I got an espresso maker for my birthday, and after perfecting the grinding setting to come up with the perfect espresso shots, I’ve been loving making my coffee drinks at home!

The only thing I missed were the Starbucks cups, because I prefer drinking out of them. I have no idea why, mugs just don’t do it for me.

So what’s a classy lady like me to do? Why go to Starbucks and ask for 5 extra drink cups with lids.

I’m so normal, I know you all wish you could do that as well.

Being a barista.

Since I’m making my own Americano’s, I just had to make a pumpkin spice latte.

Try this recipe and you’ll be so glad you did.

This is Megan’s picture, because mine clearly didn’t look as pretty;)

Soup!

I made a soup recipe for dinner, and want to make it over and over and over again.

But, I figure I should probably get some variety.

And soup is highly un-photogenic, how tragic for something that tastes magically delicious.

Walking and taking pictures of the Fall beauty.

Sorry, that I can’t stop bringing this up.

It’s just so dang pretty here right now!

Although, I may regret saying that this weekend, while walking around in a Halloween costume.

CANDLES!

 Just lighting them puts me in such a comforting mood.

Perfect with a cup of hot tea and a movie!

These little pumpkin cheesecake bites.

They only make four, so I’ve had to remake the batch already.

They are perfect little snacks, the healthy fats make sure to keep me satisfied in between meals!

MY LOVE LIFE IN TEN YEARS

Expectation:

Reality:

 This is my life in a nutshell.

Boots.

I bought these from Aldo last year, but didn’t wear them much for some odd reason.

Now, I can’t stop wearing them.

They’re just adorable.

Sorry if you don’t think so.

What are you obsessed with right now? 

Happy Friday! Have a fun weekend!

  1. Love those boots and it does look beautiful there! I’m loving that it is finally warming up to go to the beach and tea. I could drink tea just about continuously.

  2. Love those boots! I’m going to look for a new pair of boots today, myself…hopefully I find ones that cute!

  3. What kind of soup is that? It looks fantastic! I haven’t made soup yet this year and am looking for the perfect recipe. Those boots are super high (at least for me…) and super super cute!!

  4. Killer boots! i actually save a lot of cups and make my own coffee in them. it is like having the real thing (or at least I tell my cheap self!)

  5. I wouldn’t say i am obsessed but I Google something about crossfit everyday! Is that an obsession?

  6. I think those boots are great! I have a similar pair from Aldo, but mine go all the way up to my knees… and I’ve been kind of obsessed with them lately ;) Other things I haven’t been able to get enough of? Apples. Tea (I’m seriously loving David’s Tea pumpkin chai and cranberry pair). Baking. Naps. And watermelon. I’m kind of hoping that last one will die off though, because it’s getting a little out of hand… especially now that winter is coming!

    • Ohh! Those sound super cute! I think I need to make another trip to Aldo. Its my guilty pleasure! Oh my gosh! Love those teas as well! So amazing! Ha ha. I love your watermelon obsession, kind of like my kabocha obsession ;)

  7. I love that you got extra Starbucks cups. That’s so something I would do. :)

    Homemade Pumpkin Lattes rock! i need to make mine again. I also go a Pumpkin Frapp and I legit think is better than any coffee shop can make. Plus, I can’t convince my local Starbucks to start keeping spinach on hand for blends…

    • It makes me feel classier when I’m out and about! Right! I swear we can totally make better frapps than coffee shops! I think it’s probably because its healthier and not as sweet. Which I’m not a fan of. Ha ha. That would be awesome if they had spinach!

  8. I love the word “obsessed”! And I definitely use it wayyyyyyyy too much. Right now I’m obsessed with yogurt (duh), peanut butter, gum and my new Tory Burch Flats! :) Hehe

  9. LOVE those boots! I want them :)

  10. Can’t wait to hear more about those pumpkin pie balls! Yum!

  11. Those boots are cute. I don’t think I could pull them off though–I can’t wear skinny jeans because of my super muscly legs. Hah.

    Those balls sound yummy!

  12. Things I’m obsessed with: YOUR FACE. ;-)

  13. Bah, I’m OBSESSED with using the word obsessed.I have sooo many obsessions at any given time, to match my obsessive personality.
    Some of which are…
    * Kabocha (obvs)- iv fiiiinally been able to get my hands on , & hoard, some of this lovah:D!
    * ALL your recipes- the banana, & pumpkin cream cheese protein muffins especially , have been erryday occurences.
    * Gavin&Stacy- British comedies FTW.
    * Raw mixed seed butter- I’ve been enjoying this butter( it contains raw pumpkin, sunflower, hemp & flax seeds!), in sammies with strawberry jam. Yes, your WIAW sparked this :) .

    Fun post Lisa!
    Xxx

  14. I can’t wait for that pumpkin ball recipe!! I have been obsessed with pumpkin, avocado, and watching The Voice!

  15. I’m obsessed with my puppies apparently. I was going through my camera roll and mobile uploads on facebook and realized I have a serious issue with photographing them. But they are so damn cute! Oh and scarves – yep, obsessed! I just bought a new pair of boots today at DSW and have a feeling I will be obsessed very soon!

  16. We are such twins it’s scary! Candles, pumpkin, coffee, etc. I also use the word obsessed a litttttle too much haha. I’m so jealous of the gorgeous fall scenery!

  17. I love drinking out of mugs! Especially tall thin ones.. like my “Venti” mug from Starbucks!

  18. Those boots ARE adorable!!! I can see why you can’t stop wearing them. :) I guess when girls talk about being “obsessed” about something we’re meaning it in a “l love this SO much” way. I guess we as girls can sometimes be a little over-dramatic sometimes… ;)

  19. I love your Aldo boots! You rock so many heels and I adore that you do so because you embrace your beautiful height! Wow, Lisa not buying Starbucks?! This will lead to a richer Lisa indeed but maybe next time you go in there you need to swipe a bunch of cups and lids :P
