PRINTABLE NURSERY CLOSET DIVIDERS

---

We're starting to get baby girl's nursery together and things are feeling REAL! I'm over 34 weeks now, which means she could be making an appearance in the next 6 weeks or so!!!!

I had an old friend donate a TON of gorgeous little girl clothes (thanks Justine!!) so baby girl's closet is getting quite full! With Luca, I hung a lot of stuff in his closet BUT because things weren't super organized he ended up wearing a few outfits only a couple times before he outgrew them! 

I don't want to make the same mistake with sweet baby girl so I made some printable closet dividers for her nursery! I don't want to miss out on any of her sweet outfits, ha!

They look quite purple in the above photo, but they print pretty true to the image below.

I made you some gift tags again this year! Remember last years? You can view and download them here. Well I had so much fun making those ones (and because I have a serious love affair with nice Christmas wrap and thinks everyone should have access to cute gift tags for free) that I decided to do it again.

5 new ones and one repeat of MERRY CHRISTMAS YA FILTHY ANIMAL because everybody deserves a little more Home Alone in their lives.

All you need to do is download the gift tags below, find yourself a colour printer and then attach them to all the prezzies you're giving away!

HOMEMADE PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE

---

So I have this thing with PSLs (Pumpkin Spice Lattes). I'm OBSESSED with them in September (by the first week of September I think I had consumed at least 4 of them...)

But then October comes around and I'm back to my plain old soy lattes. It may have something to do with the fact that they're kinda chemical tasting or the fact that I was a little too eager beaver or who knows maybe my taste buds have changed!

A couple weeks back I decided to make my own PSL and let me tell you...it was pretty wonderful...actually it was real good, like REAL GOOD with real ingredients. It doesn't take a lot of effort to make it and it doesn't take a ton of time...(It takes about the same time as it does to get to Starbucks, wait in line, order your drink and then receive your drink and it's a fraction of the cost!)

HOMEMADE PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE

INGREDIENTS

• 2 tbsp Spiced Pumpkin Mix (recipe)
• 1 cup milk (homo milk is best but go for 2% if you don't wanna go all out)
• 2 shots espresso

DIRECTIONS

• Heat up Spiced Pumpkin Mix in a sauce pan over medium heat. Be careful not to burn it!
• Steam milk in frother, milk steamer or in a sauce pan then add the heated up Spiced Pumpkin Mix and give it a good mix.
• Pour your espresso shots into mug.
• With a spoon protecting the foam, pour your milk carefully into your mug over a mesh sieve. This is pivotal to get any unwanted pumpkin-y chunks out. 
• Add the foam and then sprinkle some Pumpkin Pie Spice on top.
• Enjoy!

Voila! A real good tasting PSL! And the sweet thing about making the Spiced Pumpkin Mix is that you can add it to so many things. I've mixed some into vanilla ice cream to make pumpkin vanilla ice cream and next I want to try mixing it into oatmeal.

Well there you have it, your very own homemade PSL. Let me know how you like it :)

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week hooray!

PUMPKIN PIE SPICE

---

Good morning! Hope you had a wonderful weekend. Yesterday I accomplished the big task of having 15 people at the dinner table! It actually wasn't that bad (James was a champ and helped so much) with everyone bringing a dish or two and my incredible sister Rosalyn championed the clean up (love you!!) It was so great to spend time with family. I'm so thankful for them.

So today I have a little recipe for you....Pumpkin Pie Spice. I've made a ton of recipes that call for Pumpkin Pie Spice (like this one and this one!). Now in good ol America, you can find Pumpkin Pie Spice in the aisles of your local grocery store but here in Canada you cannot. I remember getting super frustrated a few years back when I couldn't find that or all spice in any of the grocery stores I went to but then I realized I could just make it...crisis adverted, I could make my pumpkin cream cheese muffins!

And tomorrow we'll be putting this spice to use as I show you how I make my homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte!

PUMPKIN PIE SPICE

INGREDIENTS

• 2 tbsp Cinnamon
• 1 tbsp Ground Ginger
• 1 1/2 tsp Nutmeg
• 1 1/2 tsp Ground Cloves

DIRECTIONS

• Place all ingredients in small bowl. Whisk together then place in a sealed container.

So incredibly easy. You can put this spice on so many things...porridge, lattes, ice cream, apples...be creative!

Hope you have a fabulous Tuesday, I'll be back tomorrow with the recipe for homemade Pumpkin Spice Lattes!!!
