Happy Wednesday friends! I am excited to join in on the What's Up Wednesday posts again this month! 

If you are like me then I truly am literally in shock that it is the end of October! It seems that this fall season has flown by. It has just been a whirlwind. Last night I was talking with my mom and we were saying we couldn't believe how fast these days are going. Please slow down autumn, we are truly enjoying you! We are excited about November and the holidays, but I just want to grab onto each day and all of the precious moments! So as we finish October... here are just a few reflections - it is not as long as my typical What's Up Wednesday post, but just a few thoughts...

What We're Eating this Month...

So some of you know this, but I absolutely love cooking and being in the kitchen preparing nutrious meals for those I love. During the summer we do a ton of fresh items and there is not as much cooking, but as we return to the house, and the months get cooler, we do a lot more cooking throughout the fall and winter. So there has been a ton of yummy vegetable salads that are more "fall focused" and just a lot of time in the kitchen which makes me happy.

I have also been adding a ton of Apple Cider Vinegar into my life and the fall always seems like a perfect time to add this into life. If you are looking for easy ways to add apple cider into your life you can find a post I wrote entitled, 17 Quick and easy ways to incorporate it into your life which you can read HERE

What I'm Reminiscing About...

WCA. 

This past week I was sharing again the story of a group of precious people that truly changed my life. I would literally not be the same person had it not been for the love and care of an amazing group of people. I have shared more about them in my book, December Caravan, and in a post HERE, but I love y'all deeply. Let's do a reunion very soon.

You can read more stories from that precious year and others in my book December Caravan which you can find HERE. And y'all... thank you again for the sweet reviews... they are so humbling!

What I'm Loving...

Some very precious and personal fall moments. 

What I've Been Up To...
Moving out and closing up the cabin, the shop, some academic proposals, and just a lot of behind the scenes personal things. 

What I'm Dreading... 
Honestly absolutely nothing.

What I'm Working on... 
In addition to the shops and editing, I am working on cleaning out and truly embracing more minimalism in so many different areas of life. It is a long process, but one that I have been truly working on recently and a focus this year.

What I'm Thankful for...

This book has been SO so good. It has been a fascinating read and I have enjoyed it so much. I am finishing the last couple of chapters and am honestly sad to see the book end! You can find it HERE.

What I'm Listening To...

I shared this over the last year, but on my morning walks I have been listening to different sermons and it has been so encouraging to me. 

What I'm Doing This Weekend... 
I am looking forward to a beautiful weekend! 

 Happy Wednesday friends!
