If you’re new to apple picking, here’s what you need to know:

The most important thing – and I cannot stress this enough – is to wear a cute hat and scarf. If you don’t wear your new fall outfit and post a cliche Instagram pic of it, you might as well not even go apple picking. The process of picking your outfit should take longer than the process of picking apples.

Second, after you and your friends fill two giant bags with apples, go buy baking supplies and wine, and then bake stuff using 5% of the apples you picked, while drinking 100% of the wine.

Now if that’s not a fall day well spent, I don’t know what is.

Guess what we did last Saturday?! Went HOUSE HUNTING! Guess what we’re doing this Saturday? MORE house hunting!! Turns out it’s not simple. But it is pretty fun. And stressful sometimes. Like maybe you see an awesome house that’s been just chillin’ on the market for a month, imagine yourself living there, then go sleep on it, and by Monday morning there are somehow multiple offers on it and you have to decide if you want to make an enormous life change in a matter of hours. And then when you decide not to make said enormous life change, you relax and start looking again, only to have the same thing happen again 3 days later. You know…for example.

Let’s talk about something less life-altering, shall we? How about this outfit? I laughed a little at myself for looking so Coachella-rific in this getup. But then I decided it was ironically appropriate to dress like a carefree kid while shopping for real estate.

Wish me luck this weekend!
