September a month full of accessories

Just saying..........

This guys leather pants wear amazing! great color but a bit too tight on him.

New discovery yum!!! love the plain yogurt with granola and pineapples.

So I had to take a picture of this lady. Love it! The hair matching the trench coat or was the coat matching the hair?

Cute car, but really who drives this thing? I got claustrophobic just looking at it.

Sweet flowers from a friend.

Arrrgh...laundry awaits. No fun especially when I have to drag it up and down 5 flights.

Score!! lucky me! I was given these cool Karl Lagerfeld aviator sunglasses.

I am not enjoying the fact that it gets dark sooooo early.

Started off the weekend with a purchase of a new purse. I know do I need another bag??? YES!!! Had to, I get a great employee discount at work. Work hard play hard. NO...... correction work hard shop hard:) This bag reminds me of something Ali MaccGraw would of worn in the movie LOVE STORY.

Here is a picture of the start of the baked penne with roasted vegetables that ,I slaved over for my dinner guest. Please note that I made the marinara sauce from scratch YES I DID!

I also made a rosemary with white bean soup. The beans were dried not canned, boy they take forever to soak 6 to 7 hours. It was well worth it. Hearty and delicious.
Thank you BAREFOOT CONTESSA. Recipe # 1 from her cookbook( page 83).
