Grab a cup of coffee (or tea), sit back, and chill out for a bit with us this morning! We’re so happy you joined us for our morning coffee! We’ll meet you every weekday morning, right here on the blog, around 9am CST (7am PST, 10am EST) to share a cup of joe with you, talk about what’s on our minds, sneak in some awesome deals we spot, talk about our meal plans for the day, and anything else that comes up! Feel free to chat it up in the comment section, and tell us how you’re feeling, what’s going on with your life, current events, things you’re excited about or bummed out about, and anything else you want to chit-chat about.
Now….refill that coffee and let’s get to chatting with our Morning Coffee!
Happy Monday, friends! 🙂 So, I (Sarah) found something that I can’t stop thinking about or staring at! You guys know what a huge Disney Haunted Mansion fan I am – and this is no exception. It’s a gown- – it’s a Haunted Mansion gown!! This was the grand prize winner at the 2019 D23 Mousequerade. Tina Elliott created this.
She calls it “Grim Grinning Gown” and it has moving parts all over. Plus, even cooler- it’s got 3D-printed doom buggies and moving ghosts!! I can’t imagine wearing this… I would definitely break something. 🙂 But to see it is pretty amazing!
What is your favorite Disney Land or DisneyWorld ride?
Goooooood Morning! 🙂 I had my workout, and now I have my coffee and I’m ready to chat it up with you guys! 🙂 Last night, I stumbled upon this cool article about this 23-year-old wannabe model and Instagrammer, Kimberly Douglas. She creates the coolest, most beautiful photographs…but the behind the scenes is what really caught my eye!
She does it ALL from her home, and shoots them HERSELF with a self-timer on her camera! WHAT?! That’s incredible! Some of her shots are just out of this world! You can check out her Instagram and more of her images on Instagram. But warning – she draws you in and you might spend an hour looking at her images! 🙂
Do you have a favorite Instagram account?
It’s officially fall, which means we can wear BOOTS! 🙂 These Style & Co. Madixe Riding Boots are normally $50, but grab them in brown or black for only $24.99 from Macys.com! In-store pickup is free, or shipping is $9.95 or free on $49 orders!
Remember the TV show Walker, Texas Ranger? It was a long-running series from the ’90s staring the great Chuck Norris. It’s getting a reboot – and Are Padalecki is staring in it! That’s the cutie from Gilmore Girls and more notably, Supernatural. I (Jeni) never really got into Walker, but with hottie patottie Jared in it, I’ll watch! Read more HERE.
What show would you like to see rebooted?
Speaking of Supernatural…. This Supernatural: The Official Cookbook is a must-have for any fan! I (Sarah) have a friend obsessed with the show, and she loves to cook – so this is a great gift for her! It has items like Dean’s breakfast Pigs ‘N A Poke, cheeseburger and fries, angel food cake, Sam’s salads and more.
Do you have cookbooks, or do you get recipes only online?
This super cute (and really clever) cake server has me (Sarah) wanting to bake pies just so I can use it! 🙂 It’s actually a really smart idea, because you can serve the cake without having to use your fingers to push it off of the serving knife. The cute little bulldozer does it for you!
What types of pies and cakes do you make this time of year?
Here’s a fun trend that kicked off recently! Spiderweb makeup. Most are basically spiderwebs around the eyes – which looks pretty cool. But – honestly – besides a Halloween party or for Instagram pics, where would you wear this? Seems like a lot of work to do, just go grab a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks! 😉 See more HERE.
Do you follow makeup trends and try them?
If you’re into face masks (another hot trend) and/or Disney Princesses (who ISN’T!?) then this is for you! It’s a Disney Princess Face Masks Set! They are officially licensed from Disney Beauty. And the infusions are – Aurora: lavender; Ariel: cucumber, Jasmine: green tea; Belle: Rose. FUN!
Which Disney Princess is your favorite?
Ohhhh yes! I (Sarah) love a bit of heat in my meals – not too much, though. This Green Chili Grilled Cheese Melt is right up my alley, too. It’s seriously the perfect grilled cheese, and I can’t wait to try this one!
What are your secrets for the perfect grilled cheese?
Don’t forget to join us every Wednesday evening at 4pm EST for Happy Hour!

That cake server is so cute! I love how you can push the cake off the server without using your fingers. And that haunted mansion gown is amazing.
I seriously love that brilliant idea!
Kimberly Douglas sounds to be well on her way with her photography and cool outfits! How cool is that cake server! That is pretty amazing!
Who does not like Disney and I love A Small World. Those boots look amazing and the price is so great.
Small World is Sarah’s FAVORITE!
That Haunted Mansion dress is so impressive! How neat.
I never got into Supernatural. I tried, but it just didn’t catch my attention. I must make that grilled cheese. Yum!
I agree with everything you said!!!
It’s always really cool to see how creative people can be using simple resources. Those photos are great!
AGREED!
this is amazing and love to see these photos your sharing. i def need to get into Supernatural.
I’ve never seen it!
It is amazing what the behind the seines look like with photos. You can take some amazing photos with props.
I love behind the scenes!
I’ve seen Kimberly Davis’s work before! She does some amazing photography, she is really talented.
AMAZING!
That Haunted Mansion Gown is amazing! I have lots of cookbooks but often use recipes that I find online.
I’m the same – lots of cookbooks, but I get some online!
That haunted mansion is really neat. I’m so glad it’s that time of year because I love Halloween and fall. It’s my favorite time of the year now.
I LOVE this time of year!!
I really think that Haunted Mansion gown is so neat! I love how intricate and detailed it is– so stunning!
Absolutely stunning!
I would enjoy that green chili cheese melt, thank you! I also love boots season but it was in the 90s today and I will need to wait a little longer!
I hear you about the 90s – it’s like that here in Texas, too! BLAH!
I love your posts. You always find the best things, that I’ve somehow never heard of, but suddenly want to check out.
HAHA! Thanks so much, Heather!
You’ve come up with yet another awesome collection from around the web. That haunted mansion gown is something else!!! And I want one of those cake servers. How clever!
I love both of those! That cake server – PHEW! Awesome!
I’d love to have a copy of that Supernatural Cookbook AND that handy pie server! Both of these items are great gift ideas for the holidays.
HAHA! YESSSS! GREAT gifts!
Wow! That Haunted Mansion Gown is outstanding! I love every details of it. Surely the one who made this is really a talented one.
She REALLY took it to another level!
I am so impressed by Kimberly’s Instagram. I’d love to know how she does all those photos! They’re amazing! Also, I could totally relate to the meme about what your 40s is like. This is soooo true!
She’s really so talented!!
These Style & Co. Madixe Riding Boots look so fashionable! I can’t believe that it such a convenient price!
Seriously cute!
Thanks for giving me a new IG account to follow. I checked out her page and she is really creative and talented.
Definitely!
I want to see a reboot of Dawson’s Creek. I’ve been waiting, waiting and waiting for the show to be shown on TV again, but nada. So if they don’t want to show it again, a reboot is totally A-OK!
OHHHHH GREAT suggestion!
I am ordering a copy of the supernatural cookbook right now! My husband and I are huge fans, and with the series ending this year we planned to have a final episode party! I’m also looking forward to the walker reboot!
I haven’t seen any of the episodes – but now I think I want to start!
I also love grilled cheese and want some. I never watched the original Texas Walker. Maybe the reboot will be good!
I never did, either! I would watch the new one!
If only I had a $1 for every password reset email that I’ve waited on. The grilled cheese looks delicious!
So glad you shared the story on Kimberlie. She is quite a ltalent – on so many fronts. Not that she needs my follow but I gave it. I look forward to more beautiful pics.
I’m glad my daughter didn’t see the Ty bunny. She’s trying to get another cat and I can completely see her trying that – LOL!
Have a great week
🙂
Traci
Hey Traci! OMG Right? I follow her now, too!
Hehehe! Your daughter would get some good ideas, for SURE from that meme!
Have an awesome week!
Those boots are way to cute and what a great price. And the wine meme, looks like me and my friends after a wine festival!
