These are a Few of my Favorite Things...Besides Bright Copper Kettles & Warm Woolen Mittens

Hey Everyone, I know you're probably wanting to see a beauty post but since Thanksgiving was yesterday and the Holidays are coming up fast, I thought it would be fun to do a post about some of my favorite things transitioning from Thanksgiving and Autumn into the Holidays and Winter (: I hope you enjoy!

1. Transitioning from Flip Flops to Boots & Long Socks

I absolutely LOVE my boots and Burberry Long Socks, but I'm so sad they're getting too small! :(

2. Watching the leaves turn and slowly fall

This was the last leaf on the tree, it reminds me of the short story: "The Last Leaf."

3. Cooking the Cranberries

I love the beautiful deep red they have and watching them pop like popcorn!

4. Digging out the Holiday Recipes

Thanksgiving & Christmas Cookbooks are the best, am I right? 
5. Drinking Festive Holiday Drinks

I love McDonald's Peppermint Hot Chocolate, actually a lot better than Starbuck's Peppermint Mocha!
