Hello November! This is one of my favorite months of the year! But before we get into all the fun I’ll be having this month, I need to wrap up last month. October was a great month filled with crushing goals. I’m very proud of how much I’ve accomplished this year.

Blog Post I Published in October 2025

My goals for October 2025 were to publish 7 blog posts, send a newsletter every Friday, publish a book review every Monday, respond to comments within 24 hours, and get more e-mail subscribers. I accomplished all those goals except one. The one I didn’t accomplish was responding to comments within 24 hours. I really struggle with that task.

Here are the 8 blog posts I published this month:

1. September 2025 Goals: A Month of Birthdays and Fun!
2. Miss Winter in the Library with a Knife
3. Wild Hit by Mari Loyal Book Review
4. 10 Awesome Halloween Movies for Families To Watch Together!
5. The Ten Year Affair by Erin Somers NetGalley Book Review
6. Southwest Chicken Salad Bowls
7. An Unlikely Coven by AM Kvita NetGalley Book Review
8. Clean Schedule That Keeps You From Being Overwhelmed (+ FREE Printable)

The most viewed blog post of October was the Loaded Baked Potato Soup: A Delicious and Easy Crockpot Recipe. This one continues to be a favorite, and it’s no surprise why. It’s easy to make and tastes absolutely amazing! I hope you try it when you get the chance.
