Summer is long gone, and we fall into a new set of monthly picks
By Kelly Hockenberry, Columnist, The Times
How is it November already? It seems as if we were just discussing flip-flops and humid weather hairstyles. Oh my! Here are my Super Six picks for November…
1.) I love funny/inspiring/clever YouTube posts and this one is really great:

2.) I buy wine based on how cute the label is. This does not make me a sommelier, I understand. However, this wine is delicious and the packaging is adorable (even though I’m the oldest sister and think they should branch out and make one for us)
AND, these adorable *wine glass charms (made by my talented sister-in-law, Nicole) are the PERFECT holiday addition to your bottle! ORDER EARLY for gift giving! www.craftynicole.com
*blatant nepotism
3.) I have posted book suggestions in my Super Six before and had to mention “The Silent Wife” by A.S.A. Harrison. I am HOOKED! Don’t you just love when you can’t put a book down?
4.) Nothing brightens up a room like a big bouquet of flowers! The Produce Place on Cypress Street (next to Country Butcher) has the most gorgeous autumnal blooms for a STEAL! (While you are there, get the caramel apple wrap…you will thank me later)
5.) I love hats and, in the winter, a blinged out beanie from Club Monaco will keep you warm AND cute! (P.S., this would be an easy DIY! Buy a plain knit hat from Target and sew (or fabric glue) jewels from Michael’s Craft Store to the front. VOILA! You just saved yourself 50 bucks)
6.) I couldn’t have a Super Six without a Pinterest recipe! This Pumpkin Thyme Mac-n-Cheese is the ultimate comfort food to eat by the fire when a football game is on. Right? Pair it with the aforementioned wine….
