What’s Up Wednesday {September 2022}

 



What's Up Wednesday GraphicLinking up & sharing What’s Up Wednesday with from Sheaffer & Shay!

Here we go…

1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK:

Lots of beef 😁. We've had steaks, beef fajitas, hamburgers and more on our menu this week. Last night we ended up with take out due to a late night; I had tacos al pastor (pork with onions & pineapple) and M had cheese enchiladas. 

2. WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT:


Last  year our family trip to the Formula 1 race in Austin. We won't make the race this fall, but it was a fun experience the last few years! 



3: WHAT I’M LOVING:



We have a year around calving season and I just LOVE seeing the new babies. These two cuties were near the gate one evening when I drove in. Are they not the cutest greeting committee? 

4: WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO:

It has been a pretty quiet week around our house. M just got back from his Alaska trip so I've been doing a lot of laundry and just enjoying hearing stories from his trip. He had zero phone service and the satellite phones did not work great, so we've been catching up on everything! 


5: WHAT I’M DREADING:

Nothing really! 

6: WHAT I’M WORKING ON:

Working on a new post about mums on Counting Tomatoes

7: WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT:

Y'all we finally have cooler temperatures in Texas. Every morning has been in the 50's and it's glorious!! Fall is in the air!

8: WHAT I’M WATCHING/READING:

I just started The Good Wife series on Paramount +. Currently, I'm not reading anything; our library is closed for inventory. It's a bummer!  

9: WHAT I’M LISTENING TO:

Background noise someone hammering on something. 

10: WHAT I’M WEARING:

I found this cute little sleeveless floral top on sale at Avara. I'll get to wear it a few more times before the weather gets too chilly. 


11: WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND:

Working on my garden! I have a few weeds that need to be pulled and I need to replant the lettuce seeds that did not germinate from last time. 

12: WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH:

Catching up with some friends at a horse show M will be competing at. 

13: FAVORITE AMAZON FIND THIS MONTH:

These Adidas leopard print shoes



Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Friday Favorites - June 27, 2025

  It's been a good 2 years since I've updated this blog! I enjoy reading everyone's Friday Favorites, but kinda lost my blogging mojo. It's time to jump back in. #1 Friends This week we had a fast trip up to Cordova, TN, to a mounted shooting competition. I'd reached out to Jenn earlier this week for recommendations for restaurants in the area and she invited me to coffee! What a fun visit! I absolutely loved visiting with her and she is the same in person as she is on her blog. She's so genuine and fun!  The shoot had 81 entries; we hung out with some old friends and met some new friends. My husband is in this photo with a fellow competitor he's known for over 20 years. Mounted shooting is such a small sport and we travel all over the country as competitions are far and few between. I would say we probably know or met someone from every single state and a few countries along the way.  Last night, our friends came over with their kids. We had fajitas, rice a...

Friday Favorites - July 25

Happy Friday Friends! I'm so looking forward to the weekend; I have some shopping plans and we're hosting some of my husband's college friends for the weekend. We have some yummy drinks and foods planned for the weekend.  #1 Birthdays & Spa Days We celebrated my friend's 40th birthday! We had a party for her to celebrate on Sunday then Monday we went to the Lake Austin Spa. Voted by Conde Nast as the #1 spa destination in the US. It didn't disappoint! We had massages and facials and spent time lounging by the pool.  #2 Desserts Some of y'all know I have a more professional blog. I added a new recipe over there for The Best Vanilla Whoopie Pies with Buttercream Filling ! So yummy! We've been eating on these throughout the week, but they are HUGE so we generally split one.  #3 A New Minimalist Purse I've been having such should pain and finally gave in that it was in fact my heavy, very large purse I'd been carrying. I ordered this cross body with...

Friday Favorites - July 11

  Happy Friday Friends! I'm so looking forward to the weekend; I don't have a lot on the schedule, but I have some plans on my to do list. Looking forward to some walks outside in the sunshine, tackling a few projects and relaxing.  #1 Baking My friend Stephanie and I baked kolaches. She's a pro at it and helped me; we split these up for the July 4th weekend. Red (raspberry), White (cream cheese) and Blue (poppy seed). They were all so good and disappeared quickly this week. These were so easy! Just Rhodes dinner roll dough and Solo pastry filling. We did make the topping and cream cheese filling from scratch .  #2 Health Getting back on the health and wellness track. I had a skin check at the dermatologist which I haven't done in 10+ years. I went to a new clinic and it was a little bit of a drive (about 90 miles), but I really liked the staff. All good news! Yay!  I also did my Caroline Girvan Iron program workouts twice this week, cold plunged twice and used the s...
