Moody Style: Sangria

Hi everyone…I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend.  I had a fabulous full weekend, but I didn’t have too much time to rest.  Saturday morning I went to a graduation and a reception for my beautiful cousin, followed by an impromptu get together with really good friends and a bottle of sangria.  Then on Sunday, I went to church, then baked a batch of peanut butter cookies for a cookie swap and then went to a work holiday party later in the evening.  There was some good eats and lots more sangria drinking.   In between all of these events, I wrote up holiday cards and continued some of my Christmas shopping.  I’m still amazed how slow this process is going for me this year.  I’m usually all finished and everything would be wrapped and ready to go by now.  I still have 3 more presents to buy and I haven’t wrapped a single present yet.  I’m feeling the stress right about now, but the several glasses of sangria this weekend really helped me cope.  What about all of you?  Have you finished all of your shopping?  Are you feeling stressed this holiday season?

Moody Style: Kirklees Sweater Coat

Hi everyone…I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend.  I didn’t really do much yesterday.  I stayed on my couch most of the day and watched movies/surfed the Internet.  I left my home once to get some ingredients to make chili for dinner.  It was the first time I ever made it and it turned out pretty great.  I plan to post the recipe and pictures soon.  Anyways, I wore my Kirklees Sweater Coat when the weather got a little cool here last week.  It felt really good to wear some fall outfits for a change.   Unfortunately, I’m not so lucky this week. Today’s weather was unseasonable warm.  It got up to about 80 degrees and it’s expected to last until Wednesday. I love that this sweater coat stands out all on it’s own.  It’s one of my favorite pieces in my closet.
