A review of your favorite recipes from October and a little from my life! (i.e. my baby is walking!) Plus must-make Thanksgiving recipes!
Can you believe it’s already November?! This year has flown by! November 1st always makes me happy because it’s time to prepare for Thanksgiving and get ready for Christmas! I seriously had a dream the other night I was chatting with my in-laws about our Thanksgiving menu. Major food nerd alert! In case you are a little like me, I’ll share my favorite Thanksgiving recipes below so you can start planning! And stay tuned because my next recipe I post will be the perfect Sweet Potato Casserole! It’s amazing guys!
Must-Make Thanksgiving Recipes:
Cranberry Salad (LOVE THIS!)
Chocolate Silk Pie (THE BEST PIE EVER!)
The Most Popular Recipe in October was…
This is such a great fruit salad recipe! And I’d imagine most of the time you would have all the ingredients already so it makes for a great delicious and quick side-dish!
And my most popular recipe of the month that wasn’t posted in October was once again Marinated Grilled Pork Chops! Slow Cooker Honey Garlic Meatballs and Slow Cooker Turkey came in 2nd and 3rd.
My Favorite Post in October was…

This is currently our favorite dinner recipe! My kids love it so much! Have you tried it yet?
Becky’s Bites of Life:
October was such a great month! I’m kind of sad it’s over. The weather here in Utah was near perfect! So many warm fall days with THE prettiest fall I have seen in my life. The leaves were incredible this month! (See here.)
Carina and Luke continue to grow up literally before my eyes every day! I just adore these two and love spending my days with them! (And of course my older boys too!)
My birthday was a couple weeks ago and it was a great day! Not a perfect day but that’s life. The best part of my birthday every year is that my husband takes the day off to spend it with me. I LOVE IT! One fun thing we did that day was going to Trader Joe’s. I don’t go there often but I can’t wait because next year there will be a Trader Joe’s only 10 minutes away! Wahoo! I’ll have to be careful not to spend all my money there. haha
Look at my baby! He’s growing up too fast. He has the happiest smile on his face when he walks! He’s so proud of himself. He’s the cutest!
Halloween was a lot of fun this year! My kids loved it and enjoyed getting dressed up! What did you and/or your kids dress up as for Halloween? If you want some great recipes using leftover candy check out this post.
Thoughts/Things I’m Loving Lately:
-I hate getting colds but I found a miracle worker! The Lovebugs Probiotics Colds Suck totally kept me from getting sick last month when all 3 of my boys were sick! I told my sister about it and she bought it and was feeling sick and took these and didn’t get sick. It’s amazing!
-I got these colorful cups for my kids. We love them so far! I love that they stack nicely and are BPA free. And before we started using them my kids thought it was a fun toy! lol
-If you need a great thermal protector for your hair try this one from HSI Professional. I love it so far and it sprays on so well!
-My daughter had a really dry scalp but I bought this Oil Blend and it has completely fixed the dryness and itchiness. I’m so glad!
What products or things are you loving lately? I’d love to hear!
