Saturday Share: A recipe that’s perfect for fall, an old show that’s new to me, a product every bridesmaid needs, and more!

It’s Saturday Darlings! And you know what that means. Time for me to share my recommendations for the week. I’ve been loving the fall season in Colorado this year, soaking up every minute with early morning walks with Walker, pumpkin-flavored everything from Trader Joe’s, and Halloween decorations that are making my house looks extra spooky (see my Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets themed project that went viral on TikTok).

For my Saturday Share this week, I have a product I used that made my bridesmaids dress look top notch at my best friend’s wedding last weekend, a recipe that is the perfect savory-fall treat, a book that I couldn’t put down, and a new-to-me tv show that is bringing so much joy into my Tuesday nights. Read on!
