Last weekend, Mr. Pedantic and I ventured off on a lovely weekend away in celebration of our anniversary…and I returned with the flu. It has been a rough week, and contrary to my usual stubbornness and resilience, I spent the majority of the past five days in bed. If you were wondering where this week’s recipe got to, the answer is no where, because I was pretty immobilized. So, that recipe will be coming to you shortly, and my apologies. This season has been full of bumps in the road but I am slowly regaining a sense of routine.

Craving this mouth-watering Gnocchi all’Amatriciana right now. And how fun are these gnocchi kits?!

A guide to this year’s hottest Halloween candies. I have got my eye on the sour candy corn.

Have you met the joy and delight that is Office Ladies? I am fangirling hard over this one.

How gorgeous is this autumn mocktail?

I am ready for a world with more readily-accessible hazelnuts.

We could all use a pan of pumpkin pecan cinnamon rolls this weekend. I’m not wrong.

I am currently playing an intense game of catch-up, but the weekend is full of hope, lattes, and scented candles - the blank slate I have been craving.

Wishing you all a beautiful, final October weekend!

Sincerely,

Pedantic Foodie

HUNGRY?
