 Our cat LOVES being outside. So her and I spent the day out on our deck :)
 Detoxing while rereading The Hunger Game series. SO GOOD. The second book is BY FAR the best though. And yes, sometimes I get hungry when I detox. I figure reduced fat triscuits have like 5 ingredients, so they're definitely not the worst thing I could be eating lol.
Trying to do an outfit picture by yourself is slightly difficult-you know, getting the best lighting, keeping your face in the picture...etc...LOL :) This is the best one I took, and of course, my face isn't in it. I gave up after this picture. I do really like this dress though, super summery, super comfy, and it even has "hidden" pockets. I got it at Kohl's for like $10.
Onto the fall season-I picked up half a bushel of tomatoes last weekend and decided to be Miss Betty Homemaker and made homemade marinara and spaghetti sauce. Best. Decision. EVER. 

We made homemade pizzas with the just finished, still warm marinara sauce.
Zucchini; yellow, red, and orange peppers; yellow squash;
spinach; pepperoni; and cheese. This was obviously mine :)
Sausage and pepperoni for  my hunk o' love :)

There is NO COMPARISON between homemade marinara and store bought. I just wish that I had made this sooner!

It was kind of disappointing seeing how few bags I got from the tomatoes (this is just from one batch FYI); HOWEVER, this still saved us money! And there's seriously nothing better than knowing every single ingredient in the pizza you make. So cool.
This is from my second batch of sauce I made the next night. This sauce was sweeter, made for spaghetti sauce. I actually made lasagna with homemade garlic knots. It was to die for. I could have eaten just that bread and sauce for the rest of the night. Yum.
