If You and I Had Coffee

If you and I had coffee...

We'd meet at one of our go-to local coffee shops in town. Maybe the one close to downtown so we can walk around and check out the shops. I'd most likely order a peppermint hot chocolate or a peppermint mocha because 'tis the season.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd ask about your plans for Thanksgiving and Christmas and if you are excited about the holidays. I'd ask, what are your favorite traditions, or do you like to make a new one every year? I'm excited to pick a new ornament for our Christmas tree. I'm pretty sure we might get a Star Wars ornament, but we shall see. I'm also really excited about our city's Christmas tree lighting. I can't wait to walk around town with John and the boys while drinking some hot chocolate. When we get back home, I usually make a holiday-themed treat. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I've been thinking about next year and am already making plans, so I really need to buy a new planner soon. I'm still unsure what brand I'm going with and the size. I usually buy small or medium-sized planners, and this year I went with a smaller planner, but I'm not sure if that will work for next year.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I recently went to a Barnes and Noble and bought Twenty-One Truths About Love by Matthew Dicks. I haven't started reading it, but I'm so excited about this book. The book is written entirely in lists! I don't think I've ever read a book written entirely in lists, and you know I absolutely love lists, so I am so here for this book.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I recently watched Where the Crawdads Sing and really enjoyed the movie. I kept hearing about the book and would have preferred to read it first, but unfortunately, there is a massive waitlist at my library, so I didn't get to read it first. 

I went down a rabbit hole, researched the book and movie, and found out about a controversy surrounding the author, Delia Owens. I have so many thoughts about Delia, the book/movie, and the controversy surrounding the book, but that's a story for another day. If you've watched the movie or read the book, what are your thoughts on it? 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I have a couple of creative ideas brewing, and I'm really excited about them. I'm most likely to share more next year, which is when I hope everything is finalized, but so far, I'm enjoying this planning stage.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm so glad that we were able to have our coffee date. This time of year is usually incredibly busy, so I'm even more grateful that we were able to catch up. I hope you enjoy Thanksgiving, and I look forward to meeting again in December.

What would you tell me?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...
