Week Re-Cap

Obsessed with the sunflowers

Happy hump day! A question at trivia last night was about the Geico camel, so here we are. In that vain, we didn't win at trivia but we did get free beer...so? This week has been a good one. I attended the Fall Leadership Conference for AAUW Colorado and had such a great experience. I'm so excited for what this year has in store for us and equality. I also went on a mini roadtrip with two girlfriends to the sunflower fields out by the airport. Somehow it felt like the end of summer and maybe that has something to do with the 50 temps we've been having in the morning and the lack of humidity in general. Also, football season is starting so, while it will be incredibly hot in Austin, Colorado seems to be gearing up for fall. 

This week I celebrated my one year anniversary of moving to Denver. It was such a scary journey, I cried a lot, had a few panic attacks, never want to see snow again but I'm so happy I did it. I believe the only real way to grow is to throw yourself out of your comfort zone, what's the thing about swimming? Dive into the deep end. I'm proud of myself and my journey, it was a year of ups and downs. I dated someone, broke up with someone, made a bunch of girlfriends, made some friendship mistakes, got close with my roommate, dealt with real work problems for the first time and started adulting. It was a lot, but here we are, ready to conquer another year. What about y'all? - xoxo darling, Hayden

Loving this book where she creates recipes for her favorite childhood books.

Public Policy meeting at AAUW Colorado's Fall Leadership Conference

A meeting of the minds about communications, I'm the 

Communications Director for AAUW Littleton-South Metro.

They lovingly gave me a scholarship to attend the conference!

Brunched at HashTAG on Sunday and loved their little details.

Everywhere should have Fro-J.

Breakfast nachos, eggs benedict, a cinnamon roll and a breakfast burrito.

I made Frances Quinn's tiffin recipe (coming to the blog soon) and she re-grammed me! 

Hannah sent me this sweet card.

I got a cake for the one year anniversary (because we have to celebrate the small things) 

from Happy Bakeshop and it is so good!
