I bought my acorn squash at Trader Joes for 1.99 each! Puntuazioa! The regular market will charge you by the pound and that adds up quickly! I also buy my shallots, garbanzo beans, cranberries, pecans, chicken, thyme, quinoa, balsamic vinegar olive oil there as well! Trader Joes doesnt always have everything you need, but in this case, they have it all!

I basically watched all of Rachels pregnancy and Emmas birth. Seriously, best show ever. Sunday was a little better. I photographed some workout apparel for an upcoming post and some almond flour cinnamon rolls. Which basically meant I ate almond flour cinnamon rolls for more than one meal! So yea, kind of boring but probably so necessary to finally have a chill weekend after being so on the go with travel.
