Do you know the best thing to put in pumpkin pie? Your teeth! 😆 Throwing it back to these dulce de leche pumpkin pie squares I made from @raquelpelzel’s Sheet Pan Suppers Meatless: 100 Surprising Vegetarian Meals Straight From the Oven. They're the bee’s knees! How do you like your pumpkin? In a pie, cookies, loaf, soup or something else? Thanks for the copy, @workmanpub & @thomasallenltd.

Some of the hygge goodness in October's @norliibox, a Scandinavian home and lifestyle box (and one of my faves!) that ships every other month from Copenhagen, Denmark. More coming this week to @ayearofboxes and trysmallthings.com. #gifted

What do you call a gang of ghosts? A hauntourage. 😉👻👻👻 If you missed Gustavo, the Shy Ghost by @flavia_zdrago when it came out a couple of years ago it's well worth picking up! It’s a sweet picture book about loneliness and making friends and a great read for the season. Thank you @penguincanada and @candlewickpress for my copy! 👻 ⠀⁣⁣

Cheeseball, only make it festive 🎃🧀 Throwing it back to these tasty little pumpkins I made a couple of years ago. Thank you for the inspiration @inspiredbycharm! Michael has an amazing-looking recipe for everything bagel cheeseballs on his blog. I couldn't find everything bagel seasoning anywhere so I improvised with some french onion soup mix and seeds of all kinds. (I've since found the seasoning. Like everywhere 😂🤦‍♀️.) The orange 🎃🎃 are covered in crushed Doritos (Michael's trick). Do you like a good cheeseball? 🍂 #tbt

Starting this one tonight. Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six is the newest thriller from @launger. It’s out November 8. (Thank you for the ARC, @harpercollinsca!)

#tbt When James was only three pumpkins high.

If your idea of cozy is curling up in your own little world with bottomless cups of tea and a craft that didn't cost a bundle in supplies you don't want or need (why am I hearing my hubby's voice in my head with that last part? LOL), @thecraftandteabox delivers. Literally! The Canadian subscription box co. sent me October's edition to try and the code JUSTFORME will save you 25% if you want to try it too. ⁣

Still so pleased with this little vignette at our front door, 'tho I could have used a little more restraint with the branches. 🤦‍♀️ The vase and the basket in the second photo are from the August @norliibox. It’s a Scandinavian home and lifestyle subscription from Copenhagen, Denmark that features some of the best of Scandi style from renown nordic brands. Visit @norliibox for sneak peeks at their next one, October's hygge-themed edition. 😍😍 #gifted
