"The times they are a changin'..."

There's something about the seasons changing that makes me feel the need to declutter.  Now my husband would say it wouldn't take a change of seasons as much as it would a change of underwear.  I.  love. to purge.  I mean- I really love to clean out crap & need no excuse if I'm being honest.  But something about the change in the weather just makes me feel like it's time to change everything around me from my wardrobe to my mindset.

Mental Health Day

Recently, I've felt myself more stressed & irritated than usual.  I'm chalking it up to extra hours of work during this time of year & general workplace politics.  Either way, I knew that I needed a mental health day.  After checking the weather for my off days, I knew that I needed to take full advantage of the incredible fall weather with a little time outdoors.  I took off to one of my favorite old haunts- Moss Rock Preserve.

Every Saturday from April - December there's an exciting event that takes place at Pepper Place in downtown Birmingham.  From 7am-noon you can find a plethora of tents & people wandering the block & picking up delectable & handcrafted goodies.  Pepper Place Market brings farmers & artisans from all over the state each weekend.  You can find anything from local produce to handmade jewelry & clothing to food trucks & live music.

Local Loves: Alabama Biscuit Co.

One of my favorite things to do on free weekends is wander around Birmingham & find new restaurants & shops to try out.  I often break out my food passport & hit the road to find a new beloved spot.  One I just can't get enough of is Alabama Biscuit Co.
