Winter Happiness

HAPPINESS SERIES
The Happy List Series continues with my Winter Additions…. As someone who has titled their blog space The Autumn Girl, you can imagine my sentiment towards seasons. Each has its own unique feel and flavor, and right now I am savoring these moments of winter. Growing up in the midwest, there was always a clear distinction between summer, fall, winter, and spring. And now that I live in Texas, I’ve had to adjust to a new normal for the...

Veggie Egg Scrambler

RECIPES
Happy Monday You Guys! Today I’m sharing a super healthy and tasty breakfast. Simple as can be. If any of you enjoy eggs as much as I do, I think you’ll love this one. My sister Brit is the Queen of Scramblers and this post is dedicated to her. I’ll admit that I usually force feed myself vegetables. I have them every day, but I have to usually cook them to make them taste good. Having veggies in my breakfast is a...

Duchman Family Winery

*
Does anyone else have a deep love for wine? Over the past few years, Eric and I have developed a passion for it. Specifically red wines. We’re even hosting a wine tasting in a couple of weeks. We visited Napa in the fall of 2011 and are heading back with friends this upcoming March. Since that trip, Franzia & 2 buck chucks no longer cut it. We love our big reds and our pinot noir. Upon moving to Austin,...

Sweater Weather

OUTFITS
#TGIT baby. Today I’m sharing one of my favorite looks ever- jeans, booties, and a statement sweater. I love this ensemble so much, I wore it for my engagement pictures. Having a statement sweater is perfect for church, the office, hanging at home, a date night, dinner at a friend’s, gosh- anywhere? This sweater I’m showing you is one of my favorite things I have ever owned. Thank you Andrea Schrage for spotting it at Nordstrom two years ago....

Winter Scenes from Chicago

LIFE
After our trip to Ohio for Christmas, Eric and I spent a week in Chicago where he worked and I caught up on some R & R and good books. There was heavy sleet and snow the day after we got in and although this made a terrible trip for commuters, I was happily ‘snowed’ in. Curled up in my mom’s new sweater socks with a book by the fire was absolutely the perfect touch to the holiday season....

6 Ways to a Healthier You

HEALTHY LIVING
It’s that time of year again. That time where you promise yourself its going to be different this year. You’re going to get back in shape. You’re going to be fit. You’re going to look fabulous. But often we give ourselves impossible goals to achieve. And when we aren’t achieving them, we feel worse about ourselves than we did before. It’s a terrible feeling. And I’ve been there. But I’m going to give you a few simple recommendations for...

2015 Favorites

LIFE
2015 turned out to be quite a crazy whirlwind of wonderful memories, moments, and new adventures. We had many visitors down to Austin. We began attending Church and with that found a fantastic group of friends and new meaning to our Sundays. We added a new member to our home with the arrival of puppy Bowie last February. I found a job that I love. We attended seven weddings and three bachelorettes. We traveled all over the country including...

Basics

OUTFITS
Hi Guys! Today I’m sharing a little bit about basics and how you can dress them up. My little sister Lili is the Queen of Basics. After seeing several of her ensembles, I decided to sneak into her closet and was totally surprised by the lack of clothing in there! I expected a ton of new purchases (everything she wears is SO cute!) But Lili is a minimalist. She doesn’t have overstuffed drawers and hangers upon hangers of clothing...

Giving Back: Crusher’s Club

THOUGHTS
During the Christmas season, it is so easy to get caught up in the commercial experience of shopping and gifting and forget the real meaning behind this holiday. I’m guilty for one. I’ve had the Christmas tree up since November and was upset when the shoes I wanted to buy were sold out. Is life so hard? Get real, Meg. Though I’m slightly joking about the severity of my reaction to the shoes, I’m pointing out the reality that...
