Up next for my Autumn favorites series is: HOT COCOA!!!                                                                             source   Ahhh... As soon as the nights begin to cool down enough, that's when I start craving hot cocoa! I love going out and ordering this yummy treat but I like making it at home too! I either use cocoa powder or Mexican chocolate brand Ibarra and I add cinnamon to both, oh and I use Mocha Mix instead of milk. So much more creamier! :) If you've never tried Mexican chocolate you should give it a try! Really yummy!           ...

My next project! I'm really excited because well this one's for me! As soon as I saw this pattern I knew I had to make this for myself. I really loved the color scheme but when I went to the store there wasn't really anything that matched up to the photo. So I chose these lovely colors: Sorry my camera phone just isn't quite picking up the colors. I'll take one with my real camera soon! See ya tomorrow! xoxo Alicia

Hope you enjoyed! See ya tomorrow :) xoxo Alicia

Here the pink blanket I promised to share last week. Sadly these last two weeks its hardly gotten any attention. It's a gorgeous pattern I just found myself getting bored. But this has been happening to me lately with every project that I start. Here's the photo provided with the pattern: So pretty! Right? Next week, a cardigan! Yup! I'm working on three different projects right now. I'm thinking about starting a fourth, but maybe I should finish one project first :) See ya tomorrow! xoxo Alicia

I've loved this video for awhile now and I don't know what took me so long to share it here. By the way, I'm going outta town town again! I'm gonna go visit my bf cousin. We're gonna celebrate her dirty thirty! I can't wait! I scheduled a few posts to go up during my absence :) xoxo Alicia

                                                                            source Cute and creative idea!                                                                           source I really like this style of art. I wish I knew how to roller skate too...

YAY!                                                                             source I can't believe I didn't share where I went to last week. My family and I headed to San Diego last week. We had a lot of fun and will definitely be heading back! I don't have any pictures to share right now cause I haven't had a chance to upload them to the computer. And I'm off again on Tuesday! This time Seattle! But I will have prepped posts! Have a Good Weekend! See ya Monday! xoxo Alicia

                                                                              source The temperatures haven't totally gotten fall like here just yet :(  Well the nights are starting to get cooler. Yay! But when the temps. finally do begin to dip, my favorite thing to do is light candles. And this goes on well into winter. I love scented candles as well. Apple cinnamon is one of my absolute faves as long as the scent isn't too sweet.                             ...

This is the new blanket I'm working on. My friend recently announced that she expecting baby #3! She this is one of the options I'm working on.  It's basically one big granny square. I started a pink blanket also but I started to get bored with it, and this blanket I really loved working on. Next week I'll share the pink blanket :) See ya tomorrow! xoxo Alicia

I get to go see them next month with my lovely sister! Yay!!!! See ya tomorrow! xoxo Alicia

Marshall They're coming down in showers, The leaves all gold and red; They're covering the little flowers, And tucking them in bed They've spread a fairy carpet All up and down the street; And when we skip along to school, they rustle 'neath our feet                        ...

                                                                           source Such a cute way to display.                                                                            source I love this!        ...

I finally added some new items to the shop! Yay! Here they are: And there is still MORE too add! I just need to set some time aside to take some pictures. Also my Mom is now collaborating with me. It's exciting! The blankets and afghan are her handiwork. See ya tomorrow! xoxo Alicia

One to go! But it took a few tries! I had to unravel a lot of my work at least two times :( The good thing is I now know the pattern better so making the next one will be easier. See ya tomorrow! xoxo Alicia
