Friday Roundup

Who else cannot believe it’s the first Friday of November?! Where did the last two months go? Stores are now in full swing for Christmas with decorations galore, Starbucks has their red cups out and xmas music is being played on repeat. I’m already sick of it! I can shop for Christmas without being reminded of it everywhere, I just want to enjoy the rest of fall. OK rant is over.

What are your plans this weekend? Curtis and I plan on seeing a movie in the theatre since that has been awhile for us. I look forward to the theatre popcorn and candy. I also pick up my new wooden board for my food photography from Union Wood Co.! Can’t wait to use it this weekend, I am making DIY chili oil and zesty mission bowls. We have a major rain fall warning for Vancouver this weekend and that just gives me an excuse to catch up on TV shows and movies right?

What are your plans this weekend? Anyone baking yummy treats?
