hey girl- Such a great list! Yummy food and cute clothes. My husband and I are staying home for Thanksgiving. Already bought the turkey. Now I need to decide what kind of dessert to make. Have a blessed day!
I love staying home:) There are too many dessert options..ha! I highly recommend my cinnamon swirl pumpkin cake, but I have lots of pie recipes too!
Thanks for the Anthropologie sale code, Maria!
And your new Green Beans with Pecan Cranberry Feta Crumble looks so festive- this will be on our Thanksgiving menu this year. We are hosting our extended family of six with our daughters arriving from Boston. We make mostly the same favorites every year, but I swap out several of the recipes that could become a new favorite. We are grateful for your food inspiration all year long!
You are very welcome! I am shopping too:) I love those green beans, the crumble makes them extra special. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family!
If youโre going to the Dreams Park, itโs WONDERFUL! We went when my son was 12, and heโs now 36. Itโs even bigger now! It will be a memory that your son will cherish forever!!
Yes, we are going to Dreams Park! Thank you for sharing!
Your dinner rolls look delicious. Excited for your new cookie recipe. We are cookie monsters around here.
Thank you!
