Thanksgiving {Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge}

Thanksgiving

Turkey Day will be here before you know it! Since we recently relocated with new jobs, Thanksgiving is kind of "up in the air." In fact, I hadn't given it much thought until now...I mean, I am not sure what kind of holiday time off I will get (if any) so we shall see how things work out! :-D Either way, I saw some ideas and inspiration for this holiday season and will share them with you now...

WOW! What a challenge. These past two weeks flew by. Thanks to Neely & Amber for hosting. I learned so much about your past falls and learned some new recipes and got great inspiration for the holidays.

HAPPY FALL!

Football {Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge}

Football!

So... considering I live (or lived) in a city where all our NFL games were blacked out (Thanks for not buying tickets to see the Bucs!), I haven't really watched football in like a year! Crazy, huh? I'm not much of a college football gal (I went to UCF and USF... not really huge football schools but they ARE getting better... USF for sure has some great football to watch locally), but tailgating is always fun. =) Here are some of the recent tailgate related pins I've posted:

Fall Travel {Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge}

Fall Travel

Well, we JUST went on our trip to Boston... and we have been commuting between "home" and our "new home" in South Florida quite a bit.

I'm not anticipating any fall travel, but I'd love to visit these places near our new home!

The Naples Zoo.

Outlet Shopping!

Visit nearby beaches.

And, maybe if I'm lucky, I can convince some people to hop on the Key West Express! It leaves out of Ft. Myers and drops you off in Key West. It's much better than driving... :)

Fall Recipes {Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge}

Fall Recipes

I probably stand alone on this, but I don't enjoy pumpkin! I know, I'm crazy. Unless it's a pumpkin spiced beer... consider this post to ignore pumpkin... except... this one thing:

Pumpkin beer pretzels. Holy moly. This has to be delicious. I would definitely give this a try!

Everything above looks pretty tasty.

These are adorable.

Apple cider pulled pork!

So... any other pumpkin haters out there? Or is it just me?

Quickie :-)

I exist! This past week has been insanity. New job, exploring our new city, and I somehow managed to get an on air shift randomly last night. And, no, I didn't tell anyone really because I was a little nervous. Maybe next time I'll share if you all promise to listen! :-)

This picture was taken at Ft Myers Beach! We had a great afternoon there Saturday. Lots of divey beach bars and restaurants. Very much like home.

Let's hope this week is just as awesome. My big plans today involve finding a gym and getting us connected to the Internet!

Fall TV {Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge}

Fall TV

Woohoo! I love some good TV -- especially good, new TV! As I write this, I am hoping we have our TV allset up and ready to go in our new place. I don't want to miss these shows!

Looking Forward To... {Fabulous Fall Blog Challenge}

Looking forward to...

Fall in Florida has promises of cooler weather but no trees with leaves that turn color or other cutesy fall themes! However, there is plenty to look forward to in fall...

Epcot's Food & Wine Festival: Hopefully we get to go this year. It's a total splurge of a day, but we went in 2009 and had a great time. There are so many food booths and so many drinks to try! There is also always a concert (usually someone that isn't too popular, LOL) and it's just a really fun night!

Sam Adams had a tasting in the USA area of Epcot

Halloween: I love shopping for costumes, picking out candy, and drinking pumpkin beer. :)

Oktoberfest!
