Happy Friday, Friends! I don’t know about you by this week flew by! As we get ready for Thanksgiving vacation next week, I’ve been busy trying to finish up a few things around the house. Next week, I want to relax and be still.
Favorite Things to Read
Have you tried the Texture app? I am obsessed with it. As an avid magazine reader, I love that it offers so many of my favorite magazines in one place. Check out the 14-day free trial. You’ll be hooked, I’m sure of it!
Favorite Baked Good
Is it wrong to have a favorite baked good of the week? I don’t think so. If you think so, I’m not sure that we can be friends.
I’m crushing on these double chocolate cherry cookies. The dried cherries give an amazing texture and flavor to this decadent chocolate cookie. I love baking cookies on these Nordic Baking Sheets.
Favorite Handmade Gift
Next week begins the holiday frenzy. All I’ve been seeing on television are commericals for Black Friday Sales – from cars to toys, you can save money on it next week! This year, I’m going to be mindful of the gifts that I’m giving. All too often we just give a gift to give a gift. There isn’t as much thought to it as there should be. As you think about your gift giving plans, consider gifting something homemade. This lemon sugar scrub is perfect for co-workers and neighbors. Be sure to stock up on small wide mouth mason jars!
Favorite Appetizer
I love to combine unexpected flavors – like strawberry and jalapeño. This delicious strawberry jalapeno flatbread comes together in just a few minutes and tastes amazing.
