Hello September. The month is almost half way over and I have lucked upon some things this month that I am happy to share with y’all…
First up, ice cream. But this is no ordinary ice cream, this is: TIFFBLITZ
Blend of Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Bean ice cream and chunks of Tiff’s Treats chocolate chip cookies and brownies. Topped with crumbled sugar cookies.
Need I say more? Nope, I think the description says it all.
Just let it all soak in. Your mouth is probably watering right now…no shame. I mean, come on, who doesn’t love ice cream? Especially this awesome concoction. You must go try it. Head on over to the closest Tiff’s Treats and indulge!
Next up, we have to have some fashion.
C. WONDER
C. Wonder is a fashion retailer founded by J. Christopher Burch in 2011. Yes, ladies, you heard that right…J. Christopher BURCH, as in Tory Burch’s ex-husband. Mrs. Tory Burch isn’t the only one with the fashion sense. Mr. Burch has got something going for him in the fashion world.
Former chairman of Chairman of the Board for Tory Burch, it makes sense that he knows what’s up in the world with the latest trends and style. After a nasty divorce with Tory, he founded C. Wonder and has since opened up 10 pop-up stores in New York and along the east coast. Selling everything from clothing, accessories, shoes, and purses, his clothing is preppy and fun.
Now, you all know I adore Tory Burch as much as the next girl, but we have to give her ex-husband some credit. Just look at some of these things he designed for Fall 2013…love it all…

Finally, my last thing I’ve fallen in love with this month has got to be in honor of some fall food flavors from PANERA BREAD.
This weekend, I am in Colorado with Texas Soccer for games and we went to Panera for lunch on Saturday afternoon. Upon looking at the menu, I noticed two new items that called my name: Roasted Turkey Harvest Wheatberry Salad and Autumn Squash Soup.
The soup is a mixture of roasted butternut squash and pumpkin simmered in vegetable broth. It is spiced with cinnamon, curry, and a hint of apple juice and honey and topped with roasted and salted pumpkin seeds. It’s creamy and delicious and warms you up on a cold Fall day. And in Colorado, it was quite chilly in comparison to our hot hot hot days.
Now, the salad combined a myriad of flavors that blended together perfectly. I’m normally not a big salad person but this really hit the spot. Roasted turkey, field greens, romaine lettuce, wheat berry grain blend with craisins and dried apricots, and gorgonzola cheese make up this salad. And while it comes with a maple balsamic vinaigrette, I don’t care for dressings very much and didn’t put it on my salad but it was delectable without it!
I ordered this soup and salad in the “Pick Two” combo which gives you a cup of soup and a side salad sized salad. Next time you visit Panera, skip their mac-n-cheese and pick this soup and salad…it won’t disappoint!
Well, that’s about all I have for my September favs. Until next time! Xx.
