I Pick, U-Pick

Since it's starting to feel like fall here in Portland, my mom and I are ready for everything that comes with that. At the end of summer, we always go tomato and bell pepper picking. This morning was our time to load up on these goodies   I am quite excited for all of the tomato soup and sauce I will be ingesting very soon. We always get enough tomatoes to last throughout the winter so that we don't have to buy it. We also have tomatoes and other produce in our backyard which means rarely buying these items at the grocery store. 

Baggenstos is the closest farm to us that has u-pick tomatoes and bell peppers. So we headed down the road to go and pick some. We ended up getting about 27 pounds all together when we were done. 

After picking, we headed to a little town called Laurel for some corn. There is a farmer my mom discovered last year that has amazing corn for an excellent price. Since we only had a $10 bill and its 3 for $1 corn, we loaded up and got 30 corns. I am prepared for lots of corn chowder and meals with corn. 

Tonight is another relaxing night with my boyfriend who is currently cooking us some dinner. I am excited for this night off and to see what he cooks. Since it's a special treat to have him cook, I decided to wear something other than yoga pants and a sweatshirt for when I came over. 

I wore my black skinny jeans (American Eagle), a white cami (Forever21), light denim chambray (American Eagle), burnt orange scarf (Nordstroms), motorcycle boots (Steve Madden), and matte gold rectangle earrings (Forever21). This is the perfect outfit for when it's just starting to feel like fall because it's still not super heavy. It's still 73 degrees here so it's not really cold yet, but I still want to dress like it is. So this is that happy medium. But it does make me more anxious for more fall outfits!
