Friday Favorites

Man, it has been a minute! I'm back with my Friday Favorites post, which is a semi-tribute to Fall coming up since I have some pumpkin spice products listed (those who know me, know that I am team #pumpkinspiceforlife). Here are my favorites for the week:

1. My nephew was baptized last weekend and I was honored to serve as the Godmother. :) Here we are afterwards with the blessed oil still in his hair. :)

2. I recently purchased a new Nespresso machine (the VertuoLine one) because it has options to make both espresso drinks and regular coffee drinks (plus it has specialty flavors such as hazelnut and pumpkin). The limited edition Pumpkin Spice Cake flavor was released two days ago and it does not disappoint. It's delicious both cold or hot. Bonus: There are no artificial flavors or sweeteners in these, which I feel is the problem with other pumpkin drinks that make their way on the market in the Fall.

3. Speaking of overly sweet pumpkin drinks, there is one that I can recommend after trying it: the pumpkin cream cold brew coffee. It's not overly sweet and packs a good punch if you're tried and need energy.

4. I am remodeling my kitchen and floors currently so I am also shopping for new furniture to match. I recently purchased these bar stools (they're so plush and soft). I can't wait to unbox and use them once the remodeling is completed and the dust has settled (literally!).

5. My birthday month! I celebrated with lots of cake. Once of my favorite cakes was from Cold Stone (red velvet with Cake Batter ice cream and snicker toppers). Try it sometime; you won't be disappointed! :)

Have a great weekend!
