It might seem crazy, but I’m already thinking about the holidays here. Things do tend to get blurry this time of year with stores fully displaying Christmas stuff while fall and Halloween decor is still up — yeah, it’s all a bit strange…

For the first time in the last two years though, I’m actually getting excited about the holiday season, even if it will look a little different for us. Until that happens though, here’s to another week of counting things that bring joy:

  • a cold front coming our way this weekend into next week. I’m getting really excited about it and am already planning a menu of vegetarian chili and mushroom and tomato cream soup — soup season brings joy!

  • a little too soon but I am also really excited about seeing the Tickets to Paradise movie with Julia Roberts and George Clooney. I hope it doesn't disappoint as I have been really missing good romcoms that I haven’t watched countless times already…

  • re-wearing my favorite dresses. I obviously have an attachment to them, and no problem keeping and wearing them for years and years. And you know what — there’s nothing wrong with that! The idea of re-wearing favorite clothes actually brings me joy, because it speaks to the quality and their style that is still relevant years later. Wear the clothes that bring you joy over and over, friends, and have no shame in doing it!

  • today’s forecasted rain… fingers crossed, because rain brings me joy!

  • a few fun collaborations I have in the works, as well as my continued Brand Ambassadorship with Sarah Flint, a brand I have truly fallen in love with… Check their products here, and makes sure you take advantage of my $60 off discount code SARAHFLINT-BABLOOMINGMAGNOLIAS on your first shoes/boots purchase (just add it at checkout or use this link that does that automatically for you). Why not save on your holiday wishlist?

What’s bringing YOU joy this week?
