Fall Polish

MC Home

My parents were in town visiting the weekend before last and they helped me make my house a home. 

I'm so obsessed with everything we found! It's about 95% done, I still need a few last finishing touches.

To see the progress from the beginning, check out the posts under "decor." Stay tuned for what's up next: kitchen.

Banana Bread Muffins

A co-worker's birthday was on Tuesday so I made these Banana Bread Muffins for a breakfast celebration.

The recipe calls for a delicious brown sugar and cinnamon mixture to sprinkle on top before popping them in the oven, 

which is to die for. I just couldn't resist waiting until work the next morning, so I did a little taste test while the muffins were still warm. These are amazing - worth every calorie! The Buying Department loved them too! Check out the recipe here. 

Rose Bowl Flea Market

Yesterday I went to the Rose Bowl Flea Market in Pasadena. 

The flea market has been on my list of things to do since I moved to LA and it did not disappoint! 

Although it was hot & humid, I still had so much fun walking around and seeing all the treasures at the 2500+ booths. 

I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but I spotted a vintage Coach bag that I knew would be coming home with me the second I saw it! If you're ever in the LA area on the second Sunday of the month, definitely stop by the flea market!
