5 Favorites of Fall... Stay at Home-ista

Please welcome Jessica from Stay at Home-ista!

Hi, I'm Jessica from Stay at Home-ista. I'm a Harvard architect turned stay at home mom to three, and I'm usually found baking, cooking, decorating, diy-ing, and general mommy-ing all day long.

My 5 Fall Faves are:

1. Comfort Foods.

I've been trying to perfect this one this year, and so far I've fallen head over heels in love with pumpkin mac and cheese. Although I am also partial to butternut squash mac and cheese, fondue, and hearty grilled cheese sandwiches.

2. Anything Halloween-y

Whether it's a jack-o-lantern clementine in a lunchbox or a costume party for adults, I'm there.

3. Hot chocolate.

Especially if you make it from scratch, You can see my recipe here, usually I make fudge first then melt it into steamed milk, yum:) S'mores are also right in here, since it's melted chocolate.

4. Simple Crafts

You can't take yourself too seriously when you are glueing spiderwebs onto glasses and then adding glitter. I mean, seriously, everything is better with glitter!

5. Thanksgiving

Um, let me just tell you how hard it was for me to make this 5 things that weren't all food based! I like  bringing the silly crafts into the holiday, hence these Thanksgiving handprint turkeys. I used a handprint from each child:)

I am so happy to be guesting over here at Living Savvy! I only live a couple of hours away from Tiffany, so once her new house is done, I'm coming over, watch out!

Door is always unlocked!  Just come right in and grab a wine glass!!!
