freckles' diary

Last night one of my best girlfriends had a Christmas cookie exchange party. Everyone bakes a batch of cookies and we all get to bring one from each person home. It's so fun to taste different cookies you've never made and just get together with some girls.  I love Christmas :) Yum!!

It's been raining for days here and it makes it so hard to leave the house. I made myself get out to a coffee shop to study for a few hours this morning. Only a few more weeks and it's finally winter break!! Yay!

Cutest Husband Ever!

We have been very lucky in Vancouver this fall. This particular day was sunny and even warm! I met up for coffee and a nice walk around the UBC campus with my little brother. 

Jordan and I didn't do anything this year because we're both so busy with school, but this is a funny pictures of us from last years halloween. I'm still not 100% sure what we were haha

My favourite food to make in the fall is soup!  Tonight I experimented with one of my old curried lentil soup recipes by adding yams and kale. It was delicious. I didn't write anything down, so I hope I can recreate it again. oh, and I also had vanilla ice cream and frozen raspberries for dessert...double yum :)

We finally got a really beautiful, sunny day after a rainy, dreary week. I had to get groceries anyways, so I tied it in with a nice walk around our neighbourhood with my camera. I love, love, love all the bright colours and crisp air that sunny fall days have to offer.           How lucky are we to live in this lovely neighbourhood??
