{Recipe} Peanut Butter "Ice Cream" Sandwiches

 I did my own spin on these Healthy Summer Treats that I found on Pinterest.
I didn't have all of the ingredients for the original and I wanted a peanut butter treat.
Recipe:
1 cup thawed whipped topping
1/2 cup non fat Greek yogurt
1-2 scoops protein powder (I used PB Fit)

Mix to combine and spread onto 8-9 graham crackers squares
I added some peanuts, mini chocolate chips and drizzled some peanut butter on top of the mixture.
Put the remaining graham crackers on top and freeze for at least 4 hours. Cut into squares.
I enjoyed mine with a cup of coffee.

{Shopping} Trader Joe's, Aldi & Costco-Just the Seasonal Items!

 Instead of a typical haul with a lot of repeat items, I'm highlighting just the seasonal things I picked up.

[Trader Joe's]
 Most of these are old favorites but this is the first time trying the soup.  I bought it for a recipe, coming soon!
[Aldi]
I love that is savory and more versatile than a sweet pumpkin hummus.

A fun candle and this cute match holder.

[Costco]

I was so excited to finally see a fall/winter Mrs. Meyer's hand soap set.
This is a fall/winter staple in our house.  We usually roast it right away for a delicious side dish.

Have you found any fun, seasonal items lately?

{Thrifting} What I Thrifted in September

 I only did a little bit of thrifting in September.
I found one clothing item, this velvet Madewell t-shirt that I thought would make a good transition piece into fall.
I found this interesting shaped cutting board that I've displayed in my kitchen. On the same trip I picked up another melamine piece for outdoor entertaining. It's from Sur La Table so...ooh lala!
We went to a community market and found a few pieces for City Girl #2.  I sent her this photo of a wooden whale.  
We also spotted this whale house at the same vendor and she loved both of them. 
I found a few things at Goodwill... a brand new bike helmet, Buddha statue for my garden, a hand towel and a new puzzle.
I didn't buy this but sent it my daughters for a laugh.
I made Buddha had a safe trip home. 

Have you thrifted anything lately?

Labor Day Weekend + a Sunday Funday

 This was the last Sunday Funday of summer and it was our biggest one. 
I didn't take many photos but I snapped this quick one of some of the guests.
Also this one of the food.  We served brunch this time and the menu was:
Quiche (4)
Croissants
Fruit salad
Sweet Kale Salad
Vegan Baked Carrot Cake Oatmeal
Veggie Chili
Here was the mimosa bar area and someone brought bloody Mary mix..they were a hit.
Anniversary flowers delivered while Mr. Click was away. Gorgeous!
Kicking off Labor Day weekend at a vineyard.
Fox Hollow is such a pretty one!
Playing Exploding Kittens--it would be more fun with a group.
Going to another beach fireworks show.
Loved it!


Picked up City Girl #2 at the train station and took her out to dinner. We tried a new to us place, Mangia Toscano.  We shared everything and it was delicious!
We were stuffed and took a stroll around the cute town of Metuchen.
Mr. Click's band had a gig that Sunday. It was on the waterfront and such a fun venue.  CG #2 and I had dinner at the show and I drove her to the ferry which was close by and convenient!      We took it easy on actual Labor Day by doing some outlet shopping and going out to lunch.
What a way to wrap up our summer!
