Autumn Activities: Pinterest Vs. Me

Apple Picking according to Pinterest...

And the way I roll.

What social media suggests I wear...

What I actually do wear.

What I think I should be drinking this fall...

And what I actually am.

And you know what?
I am blissfully happy!
You do You this autumn sweet friends.
With no apologies.
Enjoy!

    Not many places around here to pick apples like that even though they look so pretty in that basket. I have to get them at the supermarket too. Inspiration vs reality :)

    Love this friend. The extent of "fall" decor in our home currently is two floral arrangements (had my neighborhood ladies for Bunco last week), two tiny white pumpkins and a pumpkin pillow

    This is so true, Billie Jo!!! I always wonder how long it took some people to stage some of the things I see on Pin*erest!

    Love the way you roll. Trying to live up to Pinterest standards is too exhausting and abnormal I think. I am happy and unapologetic with your version of apples and coffee too. xx Susan
