Brunch Heaven

This past weekend was pretty busy. It was my first weekend without a wedding since oh I don't know like June.  So between some other shoots,  starting the long process of moving my clothes into the closet and having my best friends birthday brunch, it was a crazy weekend! 

Back to brunch. As I was making my brunch menu I came across this perfect fall brunch salad. It's easy, chic, and not to mention delicious!  

• 1 romaine heart
• 1/2 chopped apple
• 2 pieces crumbled bacon
• 2 Tbsp chopped walnuts
• 2 Tbsp gorgonzola cheese
• 1 Tbsp thin sliced red onion

Mix all of this together and simply sprinkle on to your uncut romaine heart. I paired this with a pear and gorgonzola dressing. Perfection!  

Have a chic week!

All The Fall

It's been a really crazy week, as per usual. Tons of fall shoots and constructing my closet as been very time consuming. Sharing a quick outfit pic of me on the job since that is all we have been doing and having a blast too! Seriously guys, this blanket scarf is everything. Best SEVEN DOLLARS I've ever spent.

But one thing is for sure my sweet Husband has been begging for Mini Pumpkin Pies for like ..long. And nothing screams fall quite like baking.  With a roast in the oven and apple candles wafting through my house it felt like exactly the right moment to get baking. 

I make these little guys every year! Here is my recipe: 

1 box pie crust

1 15oz can pumpkin

2 eggs

1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk  

1 tbsp Pumpkin Pie Spice

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 tsp salt

Whipped cream for topping

Preheat oven 425, Mix everything but pie crust and whipped cream (obviously) , and spray muffin tin with spray butter. Since I used a mini muffin tin, I used the top of a champagne glass to make perfect circles and put one on the bottom push it as far as it goes and then add another circle. Push into the pan until it comes up to just the edge. Fill 3/4 of the way up and pop in the oven for about 15 minutes or until the pumpkin mixture isn't runny looking. Top with whipped cream and enjoy!

Happy Thursday!

An Apple Moment

Well guys we've made it to Friday and I'll toast to that. I've had a crazy busy week with shoots, closet things, and my day job! So to say the least I'm ready to take a moment and just relax.

Today's Martini Moment is more of a mimosa. Just add a splash of apple cider to your champagne and you've got a fresh fall take on this amazing drink. For an added bonus dip the rim in Carmel and then cinnamon and sugar. To die for.

I came across this quick and quite delicious recipe not long ago and have been dying to make it. Perfect for a brunch or an after dinner dessert.

No Bake Apple Bites

• 3 apples peeled, cored, and chopped
• juice half of a lemon
• 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 vanilla extract
• 1/8 nutmeg and allspice
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 package of mini phyllo shells
• whipped cream for topping

Heat a saucepan with apples, lemon, cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, allspice, water, and cornstarch and cook until the apples are soft and mixture is thick. Allow it to cool a little before adding to the shells, then just top with whipped cream and cinnamon.

Wishing you a fun filled weekend! Cheers!
