Fridays seem to keep coming a little quicker and quicker each week now and I have a feeling it will stay that way through the end of the year! I don’t really mind it though! I always look forward to the weekends. Can’t believe Halloween will be here in just one week!! I love the holidays 🙂
Friday Five
{One}
Ashley blogged about some adorable new canvas prints of her children this week and I was inspired to get my butt in gear and order a few myself. I have been looking for something to go above the bathtub in my bathroom and I think these canvases will look perfect. I ordered 2 in a size 24×24. They are offering 40% off with code Leaf40 through the end of the month! That was big savings 🙂 I don’t own any canvases, even from our wedding! I’ll let you know how mine turn out, but here’s a look at some:

Well I attempted to make one of these this week and I totally failed!! It wasn’t so much that I made the cauliflower crust wrong, it was that I cooked it on wax paper instead of parchment paper!!! I’m such an idiot, but I honestly didn’t know there was a difference until I looked it up online after I ruined my crust. The problem was that it was completely stuck to the paper because you are NOT supposed to cook with wax paper. Parchment paper is more of a silicon paper that will keep things from sticking. #blondemoment. I’m determined to try this again though.

Vanderpump Rules Season 3
I’m slightly embarrassed to admit that I’m really excited for the new season of Vanderpump Rules to start on November 3rd. I just watched the season finale On Demand from last season so I could refresh myself on the restaurant drama! Anyone else love this show????

Jewelry Party | Bichon Beads
One of my friends hosted a super cute jewelry party last night. Her Aunt lives in Atlanta and started making these bracelets about 4 years ago when her daughter went off to college (UGA). Her daughter kept telling her Mom how popular these beads bracelets were and that she needed to make them. That’s how Bichon Beads was born. She is trying to sell out her inventory and has photos on her Facebook page for anyone that might be interested. Let me know if I can help get you connected. They make great gifts for the holidays.

WIW (What I Wore) + What I Ate to the Jewelry Party
I am totally overdressed for cold weather in this photo. It was quite cool this morning and I got overexcited, but it was still in the mid 70s by afternoon/evening and I was peeling off the layers and kind of pissed I was in a turtleneck!! Ha! Obviously I am ready for vests and booties weather. I loved how my friend gutted a pumpkin for ranch dip and veggies and she made this Hot Crab and Artichoke Dip from Skinnytaste that was heavenly!!

Hope you have a fabulous weekend!! Can’t wait to go trick-or-treating in a week!!

Enjoy your weekend!
Love your outfit, even if you were a bit overdressed for the weather! I saw those canvases too and now I think we need some in our house too.
I've been meaning to get some of our wedding prints on canvases… They look so great! ANd love the outfit you wore to the jewelry party! That crab dip sounds so good!
I'm with you about being excited for Vanderpump Rules. I'm a little too excited for it I think. My husband, on the other hand, is not lol
That Hot Crab and Artichoke Dip sounds amazing – I want some NOW!!! I have one canvas and can always use more – they are just so pretty!! I'm excited to see where season 3 of the show goes – I hope they show the wedding!! Have a great weekend!
Love the jewelry!!! so pretty!
Oh yes, I love Vanderpump Rules too!!
Cute bracelets! That food looks SO good!
Annie, l-o-v-e the outfit for the party! Also, you can't go wrong with canvas art. We have one from our engagement sesh but I'd love to have a few more! Happy weekend friend! xoxo
I have totally used wax paper thinking it was the same as parchment paper. You are not alone! haha. I won't be trying that again. There was smoke coming off the cookies I was trying to make. Love love love your vest and striped shirt outfit! Have a fab weekend!
Love the canvas! And I've been wanting to try the cauliflower crust again. The first time was a major bust! Ha
First of all, I can't wait until I get a huge blow up of our wedding photos on canvas. I love canvas prints.
Second of all, I love VP rules! Stassi is my favorite, but mostly because she's dating the guy who used to host the afternoon show on Cosmo Radio. I hope hope hope that means he will be in the show too this year. They just announced that Stassi is in this season.

What would we do without bravo?
Love those bracelets! Super cute. I'm going to have to look into those!
I LOVE Vanderpump Rules. Thank you for giving us a forum to get that off our chests. 🙂 I've even got the bf roped in on this one. We don't want to, but we can't look away! haha Happy weekend!
Wow those canvas pictures are beautiful; that will look fantastic in your home. I have been wanting to try cauliflower crust for a long time so thanks for the heads up about the paper because that so sounds like something I would do. I created a "hidden veggie" recipe that has cauliflower puree in it and to my surprise it tastes AWESOME. Have a great weekend darling!
THAT. DIP. Love your party look and yes, fellow VPR junkie here hah. Wax paper is about pointless in my book; glad I never baked with it but I'm shocked it hasn't happened! Enjoy your weekend!
Your outfit is too adorable!! And I love those canvas prints, can't wait to see how yours turns out! xo
Love your outfit! Skinnytaste has the best recipes, I'm going to have to add that crab dip onto my list!
pumpkin ranch dip…ranch dip in a pumpkin…simple and genus!!! I love it. And PS I did the same thing with my fall layers today. Oops. 😉 xx
I love cauliflower crust pizza, especially the recipe that includes mozzarella in the crust. I have totally messed up wax paper and parchment before too, #doubleblondemoment. That dip in the pumpkin is so cute that I am totally stealing it for Josh's Halloween birthday! Hope you have a great weekend and some cooler temps! P.S. you are looking so skinny!!
I am soooooo with you!!! When it's like 68 in the morning I'm like can I wear my booties????? That cooking fail I can totally see myself doing that but thank you so much for the teaching moment!
I also did not know there was a difference between wax paper and parchment paper! I'm sorry for your pizza crust but thank you from sharing your new wisdom!
I've totally done the wax paper thing before, and I have brown hair. Ha! Lol. Love your outfit that you wore to the party, too. 🙂 Cheers to the weekend!
I am with you on the fall layers! So, until you posted, I didn't know there was a difference in wax and parchment paper. I have done queso dip in a pumpkin! It was delish! Enjoy your weekend, lady! xo
I am SO excited for Vanderpump Rules! That crab and artichoke dip looks amazing and now I'm drooling!
