1. Premier League soccer is back! I got up early Saturday, and got to spend both weekend mornings hanging on the sofa watching soccer. I am so excited for this season!

2. We aren’t big meatloaf people, but every once in a while it sounds good. Plus, we usually eat it with mashed potatoes, and my bf makes the best mashed potatoes. So our new thing is to make a small meatloaf for dinner and take the rest of the meat mixture and make meatballs. I cooked them on the store, then bagged them up and put them in a big bag in the freezer. Then when we want spaghetti with meatballs, dinner is just a quick defrost away. I love having meatballs in the freezer!

3. It’s starting to hint at fall. Football is back (pre-season, but still) and schools are starting up again, and it’s feeling like it’s time to let summer go and get ready for fall. Sweaters. Pumpkins. Halloween candy. School supplies. I am ready. Bring on the leaves of many colors!
