// Premade spice blends are sometimes overrated!!

// Premade spice blends are sometimes overrated!! I discovered this recipe for making my own pumpkin spice blend by @minimalistbaker and I’m lovin’ it!

🎃For ~7 servings ::
1 ½ Tbsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp ground clove
1 pinch ground allspice
1/8 tsp fresh ground black pepper (optional)
1/8 tsp ground cardamom (optional)

👩🏻‍🍳CUSTOMIZE IT!
+ cinnamon = sweetness
+ ginger = spiciness
+ nutmeg = nuttiness
+ black pepper = spice
+ clove, allspice, or cardamom = pungency

It’s not *officially* winter yet sooo it’s okay if you’re still in the PSL + pumpkin pie mood (like me haha). Are you drinking peppermint mocha, pumpkin spice lattes, or both??! Share below 😘

✨For more inspo, adventure, and seasonal cheer… enjoy the journey with me @kconnwanderlust 🙏🏻✨

// YAY! 24 days until Christmas! Welcome December

// YAY! 24 days until Christmas! Welcome December 🎄❤️

What’re you most looking forward to this month? Do you have any holiday traditions? Share below 😘

// got 99 problems but autumn ain’t one 🥹

❄️Is it snowing where you are!? It’s going between cold + warm here in New England — while I can enjoy any season, I definitely feel a little antsy for snow! I’m ready to ski! Autumn and winter mixing together makes me feel excited, confused, and mostly excited haha. One day PSL, next day pepp mocha. I want it all!

In the meantime… Who’s joining me for a snow dance??! 💃🏼❄️⛷🪩 double tap into winter 😉

p.s. there’s an additional rotating arrow at the bottom (right) if this video that’s not meant to be there. Rather than try to fix it, I want to simply apologize for any visual inconvenience lol. Please instead focus on the scenery. Kthanks from a recovering perfectionist 😘

// Happy Thanksgiving! 🙏🏻✨

There’s so much to be grateful for and I couldn’t possibly fit it all in these little squares! Every night before dinner, Justin and I pray and express gratitude. These are the constants that make their way into my prayers:

✨Family—mine & ours. I love how family grows and expands, staying the constant in life.

✨Friends—old and new, tried and true. As I grow older, the number of friends gets fewer, yet stronger 🤍 (was only able to tag 20 ppl in this post so yes I missed manyyy peeps)

✨Mountains—so grateful to be back climbing, hiking, and exploring! The mountains ground & energize my body & mind.

✨My health—this has been the hardest year for my mental and physical health. Healing from a back injury, healing burnout, moving through depression. I’ve trusted my physical therapists, psychiatrist, and counselor as beacons of light through this process. I’m proud of myself for how much I’ve grown 📈

❤️My love—I’m so grateful to have you as my rock in life. Justin, I love you. You inspire me, support me, make me laugh. Thanks for making the best egg sandwiches, feeding our water bebe, letting me take over the apartment with crafts, and supporting my silly ideas like celebrating fall equinox haha. We make the best team.

✨Honorable mentions:
• My job! I love being a pediatric physical therapist 🙂
• My family across the ocean in Tanzania. Asanteni sana, my kakas and dadas 🇹🇿

What are you thankful for, my friends? Share below and tag someone you’re feeling extra grateful for today! ⤵️

// Last weekend, I took a Wilderness First Aid course with @nolsedu & @rei to renew my Wilderness First Responder cert! Kconn is still prepared for all outdoor emergencies 😁

I LOVE these classes. A lot. I took my original WFR in 2017, then took a WFR-R recert in Bend, and now finished my second recert with a WFA!

There’s so many acronyms to understand with NOLS (that’s National Outdoor Leadership School), but I’ve got my PAS and HTT exam down. It was wicked fun to refresh on all the skills!!

Have you ever taken or WANTED to take a wilderness medicine course?! Read my blog to learn about all the wilderness medicine courses offered from NOLS including:

⛑Wilderness First Aid (WFA)
♥️Wilderness Advanced First Aid (WAFA)
⛑Wilderness First Responder (WFR)
♥️Wilderness EMT (WEMT)

Happy learning and adventuring!!😘
