New Boots+Stew=I Love Fall

In an effort to keep this blog fresh, I'm bloggin' about two things I've rarely, if ever, blogged about. Fashion (which I am not!) and food (which I consume often!)

I don't know what kind of weather the rest of the world is experiencing - but around here I think we're having our very first Fall with actual season appropriate weather. RAIN! I may be one of the few that feels this way - but I love the rain.

{Target Boots - $34}


Monday was my first day off so I celebrated with an outing to Pasadena (I know - I have some strange thing with that city. But, I just love it and needed to get out of town for a bit.) Anyways, these boots are my new favorite fall item. I found them at Target for $34! And they have officially received the they-really-are-comfortable stamp of approval. I walked all over Pasadena in them, and worked all day today in them.


I came home still in the Fall mood. So, I made the mother of all Fall dinners - Stew! I had the whole fam over, lit a fire, and had a perfect Fall night at home!



My go-to stew recipe is a Mustard-Herb Beef Stew via here.

  2. Those look like the lug boots I got in the mail yesterday from Target. Unfortunately for me, they were really large around the ankles and calves, so I have to take them back. They were really comfortable, though!

  3. ok, i'm just getting over pictures of your beaautiful wedding.

    i love the rain too, prob b/c we don't get that much of it. i bought the dolce vita lace-up looking half boots at target about a month ago and i don't think i've taken them off yet. i even wore them hiking to our picnic. plus they are vegan!
