Retells Week 01 : What I Wore, Homemade Pasta, Everyday Makeup, Garden Things, Doen Sale

January 15, 2023

Retell: tell (a story) again. A casual series where we recap Instagram stories from the past week… just in case you missed something!

What I Wore

01 – I have been loving these 100% Cotton Jeans and this beautiful knit top. I have also been loving this cozy sweatshirt on these cold days.

Homemade Pasta

I was gifted this pasta roller for Christmas and finally decided to try my hand at homemade pasta. I was worried that it would taste like eggs, but it didn’t at all and was so delicious! I followed this recipe using 00 flour and it was much easier than I was anticipating… and A LOT of fun!

I whipped up some ravioli filling using hamburger, garlic, shallot, parmesan cheese, ricotta cheese, one egg, basil, and olive oil- we all enjoyed them and the boys said it was the best ravioli they have ever had… score!

Everday Makeup

I shared my everyday makeup favorites… I have especially been loving this lip oil and flush balm!

Garden Things

I am really hoping to amp up the garden a bit this year… some things we are hoping to do is build a better trellis system for our tomatoes (last year’s rig got a bit wild), add a small picket fence, and add a water spicket.

We think we figured out our planting layout for our spring garden, and I started growing some tomato seedlings inside… right now only our parsley, strawberries and rosemary seem to be thriving. It has been in the 30s this weekend, so I am really looking forward to the weather warming up a bit so we can get out there and get some things planted.

Chelsea Boots

I finally broke these in and have to say they are insanely comfy!

Doen Sale

I ordered this top during their snow day sale and you all loved it so I am rounding up more of my favorites!

Hope you all are having a relaxing Sunday! We are finishing up a few things for our bedroom reveal this week!
