I made a killer baked ziti tonight. I used this recipe but in reality, I just used it for the cheese topping recipe and cooking temp/time. I used my own spaghetti sauce recipe that I have been using for years and I believe is amazing.

My family seems to love it too so I am not just blowing smoke up my own ass 😉

I call this week’s series of outfits the “what I wore during a heatwave because I don’t wear shorts.” I am happy to say that the temperature normalized today, so I got to wear layers again.

I almost didn’t finish this summer capsule wardrobe essentials post this week. The motivation due to heat has been sucked right out of me. I am writing this as the puddle that I have melted into due to my apartment being 29.5°C right now. The building hasn’t completed the transition to air conditioning yet and it is awful.

I decided that this week I was going to go with how to build a summer capsule wardrobe on a budget. I do capsule wardrobe budget posts for every season, but I found that after this last super fun year and a bit (note the sarcasm), we are all a little more cautious about our finances.

I know that I am.

I’ve usually think about purchases long and hard before making the jump, but this year I have been even more strict with myself about it.

I am back with a summer capsule wardrobe this week. I feel like I have completely skipped by spring on here, and kind of at home as well. It feels similar to the way we spent last spring.

It seems like I am not the only one, or maybe people are just getting hopeful because looking at my blog stats it is showing me that a lot of people are visiting and searching my site to look for summer capsule wardrobes.

I think that planning for summer is giving something for people to look forward to…even though I hate summer and would rather skip by that instead.
