Jess In Retrospect: Autumn

DIY Autumn Decorations

Gosh I can't believe that this is actually the first little DIY I post on here! One DIY in eight months of blogging is a bit underwhelming really but I think as it's now autumn, my favourite!, and the festive season is drawing closer there will be a lot more crafty things on here! Today I wanted to show you the little things I made (and picked up) to make my room look cosy and autumnal and maybe a little halloween-y.

How To: Pumpkin Spice Latte

Autumn

It's that time of the year, where Starbucks brings back the pumpkin spice latte! I always really enjoyed a cup of steaming hot pumpkin spice latte on my way home to keep warm and because I have a massive sweet tooth. Recently however I read an article about Starbuck's hot beverages and the kinds of ingredients they put in there (without disclosing them!) which - to say the least - put me off their flavoured coffees a bit. Basically it shouldn't even be news to me that a sweet coffee from Starbucks isn't the healthiest option out there but only now did I really think about it. However the craving for pumpkin spice latte was real, so I had to do something about it! And that's why - with some googling and testing things out - I found myself a recipe that's super quick and easy and at least as delicious as the one from Starbucks (with the benefit of knowing all the ingredients in my drink!)

A Sunday Well Spent: Bavarian Harvest Festival

Autumn

Hello you lovely lot! It is autumn and that means harvest festivals and markets will pop up everywhere in Bavaria and I love having a wander around them and seeing all the yummy organic food and looking at all the nice little crafts stalls. It's such a nice way to spend the day with family and friends especially if it's the weekend after a busy week and you just want a relaxed, fun day out in the fresh air!

Monthly Goals: October

Autumn

So it is October and I'm not quite sure how this happened! I remember very clearly the day I've been typing up my September goals post and that was basically only yesterday.. However I cannot even try to conceal the excitement I feel about it being October, finally properly autumn and Halloween not far away at all! So with the new month comes a couple of new goals as well as a review of how I did with last months' aims.
