We drank coffee. Plain black for D, pumpkin spice for me (Ariela's recipe is great, but I cut the sugar quite a bit because I don't like my coffee very sweet at all).
{coffee, plain + pumpkin spice}
We visited the beach. The offseason is my favorite time.
{beach, october}
I packed up orders. I never, ever get tired of putting together packages. It might be the best part of having the shop.
{orders, packed}
And I worked a bit, as the light failed.

The beach looks so nice empty.
ReplyDeletehow does coffe pumpkin spice taste like?
ReplyDeleteLooks like the perfect weekend to me. I love the way all of your packages look. I don't usually go for flavored coffee- but this time of year-I do make Green Mountain Pumpkin Spice in the afternoon. It's perfect!
ReplyDeleteYum. The pumkpkin spice coffee from Cost Plus? It is the best :) especially with some Pumpkin Pie Torani syrup added. (they even make it sugar free now!)
ReplyDeletethe beach is great in the off season...extra windy but i put on a cozy sweatshirt to keep warm and i'm allowed to take my dogs for walks with me on the sand.
ReplyDeletelooks like wonderful weekend. and yes, nothing beats the beach in the off-season.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you! I love wrapping up shop orders! Each and every time it brings me joy to imagine a customer's smile when they see their package all dolled up like a Christmas present.
ReplyDeleteLove the headbands, btw.
as much as i love going to the beach on a warm, sunny day, there's nothing quite as appealing as going during cooler months.
ReplyDeleteI love quiet weekends...let's hope that serenity carries on into the week!
ReplyDeletehmmm pumpkin spice coffee! i've never seen that over here i'm gonna try and hunt some down cos it sounds yummy.
ReplyDeletethose packages look gorgeous!!

Hi, guys! The pumpkin spice coffee is actually a fake pumpkin spice latte, based on Ariela's recipe (adding a link in the post above). I reduced the sugar (don't like my coffee sweet)and left out the Coffeemate and it was delicious.
ReplyDeleteThose packages are gorgeous. Now I have another reason to buy something from your shop!
ReplyDeleteooo sounds like such a nice weekend! and i have GOT to try pumpkin spice coffee sometime! yum yum!
ReplyDeleteaww...if that's how my little sister's b-day headband arrived, it was a lovely surprise indeed.
ReplyDeletelove your sweet little packages
