Happy #thinkingoutloud Thursday! No idea what I’m going on about? Click here!
1. I forgot Spoons’ birthday!!! How could I have forgotten Spoons’ birthday?!?! Like… it didn’t even cross my mind until I sat down to write this post, looked at the date, and realized that the 27th was 4 days ago. I’m terrible. But I feel like birthdays kind of lose some of their big deal factor as you get older, and while 5 isn’t exactly up there in human years, it’s pretty up there in…. yeah, no. I’m grasping at straws here. I goofed so we’re just going to have to celebrate a little late. Sorry Spoons.
2. And because I feel all sorts of discombobulated, what’s say we kick off the randomness with some random facts?
- So apparently my mom didn’t eat enough peanuts while she was pregnant with me. Actually, I should go get tested again. It’s been like… 25 years since my last test?… and I have no idea how severe my allergy is these days.
- And people look at me like I’m crazy when I tell them that the heavier the music, the calmer I feel…
- The next time you really want to wow someone with your knowledge of the universe, just share this little gem with them. Also, how deterring could caterpillar poop be? It’s, like… tiny.
- Someone please tell me if this is actually legit. I’ve driven through CO a few times, but never paid attention to the signs.
- I actually tried this on a mosquito bite once and it made it stop itching. Bananas are magic — I’m telling you.
3. But seriously? I legit didn’t even realize it was the end of August already. I feel like I spent the past couple of months with my head in the clouds, with a lot of lazy-ish days that just kind of blurred together. But I also feel like it’s time to get my head out of the clouds and get back to work, because this girl’s been slacking. A little. Sorry Spoons.
4. On that note… fall is coming! The leaves outsides are telling me so! And those first golden leaves always make me smile, because as cliche as the whole “omg I love fall” thing may sound, I really do love fall. Summer is a little too sunny and energetic for me (sorry, summer lovers), and I always find myself craving the calm coziness of fall. Now if only ours lasted longer than 2 weeks…
5. I need this shirt in my life… #introvertlife

6. I also need to whip up some kind of recipe with almonds, oats, and honey as the main ingredients. I used to be straight up addicted to that combo (remember these almond fudge protein bars? o.m.g), and then it kind of fell to the wayside. Time to bring it back. But first I should probably post the recipe that I’ve been sitting on for like… 2 weeks. Sorry Spoons.
7. Happy Thursday, friendly faces! I hope you’re having an awesome one, and I’ll leave you with this little gem to think about…

Happy birthday to spoon and thank you admin for providing such interesting knowledge recipies and facts of health just as word unscramble tool provides the knowledge for free.I love reading this pages of yours.
I always knew bananas were magical.
We have an exit here in Ohio for Stoney Ridge, route 420. I giggle every time I see the sign.
Happy birthday, Spoons. My blog anniversary passed recently too and I didn’t do anything to celebrate. I should.
Okay the banana peel fact is totally interesting…going to have to try it. Oh and I am a mom!! had my beautiful daughter last week. She is perfect!!
I have no idea how it’s already September tomorrow. How did that happen? (We’re still having triple digits temps here in Northern California, mind you!).
So I listen to hard rock/metal and people always ask me why I’m so angry. I’m always like, this is a love song?? Ha. I like rock because it covers a variety of emotions. Listening to a song can help you process them in a healthy way. I never understand, the feel good happy music all the time. No one actually feels that way 100% of the time. Besides, it’s good to cry/scream or whatever. Just let it out.
I am so excited for fall. I’m heading to Utah next week and I was so excited and hopeful we’d have slightly cooler weather, then I looked and saw it’s supposed to be in the 90s. I…just…can’t.
Oh wow, that quote at the end actually really hit home. I feel like being back at college, I can easily find myself falling into the comparison trap and just being like, oh why am I alone right now? I “should” go hang out, when instead, I can make the most of that time alone and use it to get things done that are important to me.
Happy happy birthday to Spoons; I’ve been reading for ages and ages, so it’s crazy that you’re only 5 years old.
And about the peanuts? I actually heard that sometimes when the mom eats a LOT of peanuts, the baby develops an allergy as well. I guess the secret is some happy medium?
YES! So excited about fall and happy happy birthday to Spoons. 5 years is a truly long time in the blog world; it shows how persistent and faithful you’ve been over 5 years Amanda! And that introvert shirt is just perfect; I know some people who would really love it! I’m kind of an extroverted introvert, so I definitely feel like that sometimes.
Happy Birthday to the blog! I don’t understand what happened to summer either. Didn’t it just start?
I cant believe its almost fall too! Days are getting shorter and its getting colder. I do love Fall though! I need that shirt, hah!
Happy belated birthday Spoons!!
I’m with you, August flew by. Love that last quote ❤️
August definitely flew by and so excited for Fall. I love those random facts, I need to try the banana peel one!
Totally agree with you about that almost-fall weather. Love it!
