Hello, friends, and Happy Thanksgiving week! I hope you're joyfully prepping for feasting and enjoying family time this week. School is closed this week and my youngest is home from college, so we're enjoying a slightly slower pace AND some cold weather to get in the holiday spirit. I may already be enjoying my Christmas Pandora stations -- I do love me some Christmas music and it always gets me in the mood to cook, decorate, and shop for … [Read more...]

Happy New Year and Happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a festive and fun New Years, even if it involved yoga pants and cups of tea. I managed to make it til midnight and then spent all day on the couch yesterday. It was a cold and rainy day, perfect for enjoying the fire in comfort. :) Today is the last day of the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale, and so I felt I'd be remiss if I didn't share some of the great deals they've got for the … [Read more...]

Hi y'all! Woo hoo and TGIF! The hubs and I are headed to the lake to celebrate his birthday with friends this weekend and not a moment too soon. While my to-do list still looms (wrapping, shipping, last minute shopping), God knew he and I needed time in a serene place this weekend. Lots of non-holiday stress has been creeping in and I think a little time in front of a roaring fire with good friends and good food is just what the doctor … [Read more...]
