It was a very busy (and amazing) October… here were some of the best parts (ok there were a lot!):

Building castles with some of my favorite kiddos

Hosting happy hour – nothing says “hello Friday” like a taco truck and margarita machine in your work parking lot

Pretty pumpkins in the Whole Foods parking lot that I felt to weird posting during our 90 degree heatwave

Spending an amazing weekend in Santa Cruz with my favorites

The Whitneys take over wineries

Cate was not feeling our swing sesh.

Celebrating J’s 30th in Tahoe

My first (of many) Good Eggs loot

J’s surprise party at the Basin

1st Sharks game of the season

Hand sewing my Halloween costume (not by choice…ugh.)

Decorating my boss’s house for his 50th birthday party

Get it?!

  A much needed recoup day (we may or may not have watched 5 movies…)

Wanting to be the “cool house” I splurged on full size candy bars – too bad only 5 trick or treaters got the memo

One of my favorite cheese boards (chalk + cheese = yes please)

10 months down… 2 to go!

Oprah’s Favorite Things list inspired me to share a few things I’m currently loving…

1. Good Eggs – This grocery service delivers locally sourced food directly to your door (free for orders over $50!).  Their website (and app) are super easy to use, and I love that the “menu” is constantly changing to accommodate the freshest produce and products.  Their costumer service is top notch too – any hiccups with my order and they have gone above and beyond and make things right. Click the link to get a free special treat with your first order!

2. UnRoll.Me – this app is an awesome way to clean up your inbox everyday. It allows you to (easily) go through your inbox and unsubscribe, “roll” or receive certain emails to your account.  Emails that you decide to roll are compiled in one easy to read email a day. Super helpful if you don’t constantly want to be reminded of all of the amazing sales going on every day, or just want to save yourself countless minutes deleting spam.

3. Tac-Oh! – If you are local, I highly recommend you check out the newest addition in Willow Glen.  This high end “Mexican Comfort Food” spot (and sister restaurant to Opa!), has the most amazing tacos and cocktails, and the best nachos… ever.

4. Zara Shoes – I went on a binge a few weeks ago, and have been especially loving these. They elevate the simplest of outfits (re: t-shirt and jeans), but are a lot easier to walk in than heels!

5. Din – If your not in the mood for Tacos, and too exhausted to fully cook something with your groceries from Good Eggs, Din is your way to go.  They send all the ingredients/directions (think Blue Apron), of restaurant famous recipes – but everything takes only 20 minutes to make (and not a Blue Apron 20 minutes, which often times means an hour).  Who doesn’t want to make Tacolicious tacos in the comfort of their own home!?
