1.) The 2024 OSP printable calendar is ready! I’ve already received so many positive emails about next year’s calendar, and it’s been really fun hearing how you all are using it. It’s free for my email subscribers, so if you would like to download your very own copy, just CLICK HERE.

2.) It’s jeans weather, and one of the best places to find affordable and very cute jeans is Walmart. My favorite style is this mid rise version, but there’s also these high waist skinny jeans. I’m also thinking about getting these super cute mid rise wide leg jeans. The Free Assembly short trench coat I featured in my fall capsule wardrobe post is back in stock, in every size! I have a set of these comfy sweatshirts (love them), and I just ordered this feminine puffed sleeve top.

7.) LET’S BAKE SOME BREAD! I just updated two of my most popular bread recipes. (All new pictures, fresh links, and additional information.) First, this English Muffin Bread is super easy, and it makes such a hearty breakfast. Second, this Rosemary Buttermilk Bread is a savory treat that pairs perfectly with soups and salads.

9.) SELF-CARE RESHARE: If you don’t keep track of your blood pressure at home, you should. I love this digital blood pressure machine, and it’s super easy to use. You literally put the cuff on, and push a button. My doctor and I have been working to get my pressure down, and I’m relieved to say that we finally have my medication figured out. I’m really happy with how I feel, and with my readings. If you don’t have a blood pressure machine, please consider it! I also added a blood pressure page to the printable calendar, so it’s super easy to keep track of your numbers.

10.) Have a lovely week…and don’t forget to celebrate the first day of fall on Saturday!

4. Super Easy One Pot Meal Idea: In a Dutch oven, heat 1 TBS of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 large sliced onion, 1 sliced red pepper, and 1 lb of Italian sausage out of their casing and pulled apart. Cook for 5 minutes over medium heat until the onions are translucent. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1 tsp of smoked paprika and stir for about a minute. Add one cup of rice, stir, and cook for a couple of minutes. Add 2 cups chicken stock and stir to combine. Cook for about 15 minutes over medium-low heat with the lid on until the rice is cooked. YUM!
