Molly Jane Designs: weekend get away

A few weeks ago I went to visit my sister, Betsy, and her family in Asheville, North Carolina. It was the perfect weekend get away! The Autumn colors were at their peek and the weather couldn't not have been better. We hiked, carved pumpkins, went out for dinner and drinks in Asheville, and played with twins. While we were out and about in downtown we stopped by a cozy dessert/coffee shop called

The French Broad Chocolate Lounge.

I could not say enough good things about this charming spot. From the cakes in the display case, to the carefully decorated truffles, it was all amazing! The drink options were impressive as well. Any place to grace a coffee drink with the name "The Jitterbug" has got something good going on. They had so many delectable treats on display it was difficult to just pick one. Here are a few pictures below. Enjoy!

Halloween is just around the corner and I'm getting excited about all the Halloween parties and crazy costumes. Who doesn't love a good costume party? I'm still brainstorming ideas. A couple of years ago I was Rainbow Bright. I was obsessed with her as a little girl.

I have always loved this time of year. For many people, I know Spring is symbolic for them as a time of re-growth, or a metaphor of a clean slate. For me, that season is Fall. I love the first time I wake up in the middle of the night with a slight chill and realize it's time for an extra blanket on the bed; The brisk mornings or frost on your window sill. My morning Chai Tea Latte always make me happy, and wearing my favorite college sweater brings a smile to my face. I'm headed to Ashville this weekend and can't wait to see all the Autumn colors. Can't wait to post pictures from the trip!
