This & That Fall

 Here's what I've been enjoying and doing lately--fall edition.

I treated myself to a new pumpkin mug for the season.

We made the spaghetti recipe from The Bear show (if you know, you know).

I planted a sweet potato plant in a pot because I liked the leaves. It must have thrived because look at all of these potatoes. I was shocked!! They were tasty too!

I got my toes done in this pretty fall color.

Another "TikTok made me do it", I made this pumpkin out of a toilet paper roll and a cereal box.  

I refuse to buy mums too early this year because they don't last so I made some fall dried flower, berry and evergreen baskets out of things I found in the yard.  I also got this corny (nutty?) flag for the porch.

We haven't seen a toad in our yard for awhile. I was so happy we had one visiting!

My morning glories never grew this year so I've enjoyed seeing my neighbors' amazing plant around their mailbox when I walk by.

I had a cozy fall movie night watching Practical Magic.  

I was spoiled for my birthday!

Birthday dinner with Mr. Click.

I made my first DIY bleach dyed t-shirt. The stencil is a wood decoration from Dollar Tree.

This was the basic tutorial I used.  A sunny day helps speed the process!

What have you been up to this fall?

{Travel} Riviera Maya, Mexico- Day 2

We're back in Mexico for Day 2 of our trip. You can catch up on Day 1 here.

It was our first full day at the resort and we were excited to see all that it had to offer.

But first, coffee. Always!!  Not a shabby view from our room's balcony.

I walked over to yoga class and Mr. Click headed to the gym. My class was an hour and a half and pretty intense but it felt so good to do it!

After getting cleaned up, we headed to breakfast at one of the adjoining resorts. An ocean view makes everything better.

Walking back we found so many cute photo spots.

I could hang out here all day!

But we had pool time on our minds.

We had our own cabana, books, cards and a swim up bar.

Making friends with the iguanas (not really...keeping my distance!).

Most of the restaurants had a dress code for dinner and it was fun to get dressed up to go out.  Can you believe this jumpsuit is from Walmart?  It felt like wearing jammies, so cool and comfy!

We went to the Mexican Fiesta that night.

They were handing out margaritas while we waited to get in. Vacation mode activated!

The performers and the show were really good.  

An espresso martini at the cool Martini Bar was a great way to end the evening.

{Recipe} Vegan Cavatelli, Sausage & Broccoli

This is a recipe we recreated from a restaurant meal we had in NYC.  The hardest part was finding vegan cavatelli but luckily a local Italian market had it for us. 

Ingredients:

serves 3-4

1/2 pound frozen cavatelli

2 Italian (Field Roast) sausages, sliced
4-5 cloves garlic, chopped

4 cups broccoli florets, lightly steamed (I used the microwave for 5 minutes)
olive oil (or water)
lemon 1/2
crushed red pepper
salt & pepper
vegan parmesan cheese (I used Violife)

1) Set a large pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil, add a generous pinch of  salt.  Add cavatelli and cook according to the package.

2) Heat olive oil (or a little water) in a skillet and add sausage and garlic. Sauté until sausage is warmed through and browned. Be careful not to brown the garlic too much.

3) Add steamed broccoli to the pan and season with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper to taste.  Squeeze 1/2 lemon over the broccoli.

4)Once cavatelli is done cooking, reserve 1 cup of pasta water and drain pasta.

5)Add drained pasta to the pan and stir to combine everything. Add a pasta water  a little at a time if too dry.  Grate parmesan cheese on top and stir to let it melt. Taste for seasoning, add more if needed.

Serve immediately with some crusty garlic bread.
