Weekly Wrap Up 10-9-20

This is one of those weeks that went by simultaneously slow and fast. I had a lot of work to do and still haven’t felt like I’ve gotten my routine down in this new space. It’s been weird adjusting to being alone for most of the day, as I’m working from home and Nick goes into an office. Our home also isn’t done, so I feel like I’m kind of in limbo as well. But I know it will all come together soon. 

This was a pretty decent week for reading! I finally finished a book that felt like it took forever to focus on, read a book in a day which always feels good, and we have so much exciting content coming to the podcast

Here’s what I was up to this week: 

Books Read: Ties That Tether by Jane Igharo, The City Baker’s Guide to Country Living by Louise Miller

Currently Reading: The Seven Husband’s of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid—a backlist read I have been meaning to get to and it seems perfect for Fall!

Audiobook: Sh*t, Actually by Lindy West (thank you libro.fm for my copy!) 

Watching: I’m rewatching Gilmore Girls because it’s the best fall vibes show! Plus Nick and I are still watching The West Wing. I don’t think we’ll finish the series by the time the special airs October 15, but we’re sure as heck gonna try! 

Cooking: I have been the worst at meal prep this week, pray for Nick. I’d love any of your favorite recipes or easy Fall meals! 

Shopping: I will admit to some retail therapy this week! I love this sweater and have worn it nonstop, these festive masks make me irrationally happy, and I finally picked up a book that EVERYONE seems to be talking about. Have you read it yet? 

Bubble Bathing: All the baths. As the weather gets colder, I’ve been all about baths. I need some new products so if you have any favs, let me know! I love this one from L’Occitane.

I had lots of questions about a headband I wore on my Instagram this week. You can find it here! I share most things on my Amazon Shop and my LikeToKnowIt page!

This weekend is all about rest, relaxation, and some Fall fun. I’m hoping to get ahead on lots of work and also find some joy in content creation again. And of course…football!

Plus, don’t miss my Live with Amber! We’re talking Prep-tober and all things NaNoWriMo which is right around the corner! 

Don’t forget to check your voter registration! TODAY 10/9/20 is the deadline in New York State to register to vote on Election Day!!!

How was your week? I’d love to hear from you!
