This pumpkin streusel bread will become your go-to fall treat. It has a tender, moist pumpkin-spiced loaf base topped with a sweet crunchy streusel and finished with a glaze.

Pumpkin Streusel Bread
These bars remind me of holiday dessert vibes that creep in early fall. They’ve got a buttery graham cracker crust, creamy vanilla cheesecake filling swirled with fresh cranberry sauce, and a brown sugar crumble that gives that perfect crisp top.
I love that you can make them ahead; chilling them overnight lets those flavors settle so every bite is rich, tangy, and just sweet enough without being overwhelming.

One of my all time favorites, I still listen to this song on repeat.

TV Girl- Lovers Rock
Must See Movies
I like all types of movies, but true crime is my go to. True stories keep my attention more than anything.
This film is gripping because it’s more than a thriller — it’s based on the real experiences of the actress herself, who lived through the story she portrays.
That makes every moment feel raw and authentic. I recommend it to anyone who wants a movie that’s intense, thought-provoking, and unforgettable.
It may not be festive, but this movie lives in my mind rent free.

Apartment 407
If you're looking for a truly intense psychological thriller, this is it. It’s a very dark, shocking movie that will genuinely stick with you afterwards. It's the kind of intense watch that makes you completely forget about everything else. I read it...
Chained
This movie broke my heart in the quietest way. It follows a group of kids left to fend for themselves in a small Tokyo apartment, and the way the story unfolds feels so raw and human. It’s slow, emotional, and one of those films that sticks with you ...
Nobody Knows
This movie is such a trip. A couple moves into a new house and discovers a hidden room that grants their every wish — but of course, things don’t stay that simple. I love how it mixes suspense with a psychological twist, and it keeps you asking what ...

I fall asleep watching anything. This is a list of shows I have binged this month and actually enjoyed watching so I stayed awake. 😂🥴

📺 Boy Swallows Universe – Netflix
This show surprised me in the best way. It’s got all the crime and chaos — drug dealers, prison, shady stuff — but told through the eyes of this kid who’s just trying to survive it all and make sense of his messed-u...
Boy Swallows Universe (TV Mini Series 2024)
🍸 How I Met Your Mother – Netflix
If you’re into witty humor, lovable chaos, and long-running inside jokes, How I Met Your Mother is a classic worth binging. Think Friends with more storytelling twists and a bit more emotional depth. It’s funny, cle...
How I Met Your Mother (TV Series 2005–2014)
Love Island- Peacock🦚
I don’t typically watch Love Island, but I kept seeing so many memes of Huda. So I tuned in and binged the whole season. 😅
Definitely a fixation now.
Love Island Season 7 Streaming Online| Peacock
If you need a new drama to completely consume you, this is it! The central relationship is so complicated and messy—you just can't stop watching to find out what happens next. You will binge watch every episode once you start watching this show.
Tell Me Lies
📱 Unknown: Catfish – Netflix Okay, this one is wild. If you’re into true crime, this story totally sucks you in — it starts off as just a weird online relationship and then spirals into something way darker than you’d expect. I was not ready for the...
Unknown Number: The High School Catfish
Untamed – Netflix

People Watching
I've been minding their business.
Iris was one of my favorites from Love Island Season 7. She seems like a genuine person. From what I watched and see from her social media, she is not ever in any drama and is putting her popularity to use good. Make that money girl.
I was SO HAPPY...
Iris Kendall
TJ was my favorite guy on Love Island Season 7. He didn’t seem like he was out to just play a bunch of girls. He gave golden retriever vibes, which I love.
Iris and TJ are the CUTEST couple. He is so obsessed with her and I love it. She seems very c...

Hannah is so pretty and seems super sweet! I am kind of salty about her and Charlie because I thought they were SO FREAKING CUTE. But I really think Hannah has a super bubbly personality and I was not happy when she was voted off. So obviously like e...
Hannah Fields
Unpopular opinion apparently, but I like Charlie! I think he has been pulling the short end of the stick with love Island. I was disappointed to see him go so early in Love Island Games. I was secretly hoping for a Hannah and Charlie reunion. I hope ...
Charlie Georgio
Another unpopular opinion: I like Cierra. She shouldn’t have been taken off Love Island. I do think Nick owes her an apology. She didn’t deserve to be put through all the drama.
She is actually very pretty and I love her hair. I do like most of her o...
