Hello Monday {11.4.24}

Happy Monday, friends! I had a super festive and fun weekend, and I am linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday to share all about it!

Friday morning started with me taking down all the fall/Halloween decor to make way for Christmas!! I listened to my fave Christmas song to get in the spirit even more so than I already was!

I made a ricotta mixture for our delicious dinner.

I didn't take any pictures, but I met Caleb and his dad, brother, and grandfather for lunch at our favorite Starkville spot- The Grill.


Lasagna soup for dinner! Definitely one of my very favorites!!

Caleb indulged me in watching a Christmas movie while we ate and decorated. We watched Christmas with the Kranks! No matter how many times I watch it, it does not get old. I love it!

Super festive Saturday morning coffee. YUM. My mom, step-dad, and Mimi got to our house around 1 am! 

Our Saturday appetizer before we ordered Papa Johns. I am now adding basil and salt and vinegar chips to all of my cheese boards from now until forever. So good!

Afternoon coffee and football- a favorite!

We did a little shopping at Marshall's and Aldi. I bought entirely too much, but everything was basically a "necessity" 😉. I mean, it was mostly all wrapping essentials for the holiday season, so I say necessity!

And we found ourselves back at The Grill. See...a favorite!

Loaded queso to start. It was really good!

I got blackened catfish. It had some sort of cajun sauce and had jalapeño cheddar grits underneath. YUM.

GLUTEN FREE peach and white chocolate bread pudding. My mom is GF due to an allergy, so this was a must, and it was fabulous!

Wine by tree light after dinner!

Another festive coffee on Sunday morning. This time with Aldi's almond milk peppermint mocha creamer. SO good!! And then we went back to Marshall's- ha!

And then it was back on school work with a glass of wine. Such fun!

Have a happy Monday!

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

 Happy Friday!! I hope you all had a great week! I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from my week. Well guess what is back tonight?? NEW Hallmark Christmas movies!! Ummm YAY!! I'm most excited about Confessions of a Christmas Letter (Angela from The Office is starring in that one!) and Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story! For some foodie faves... This right here. It made my week. I'm obsessed with the tuna from Beagle Bagel. It's amazing. I can never say it enough! I made egg drop soup for the lunch the other day, and it was really good! It's always been my favorite soup from Chinese buffets. I didn't feel great and wanted a soup...luckily I had all the ingredients. I used this recipe here. The weather this week was absolute perfection.  I mean, it was really, really cool. And it was fabulous. So, that means.... I broke out a sweater and my Sorel booties that I love so much! I always forget how good the Bible app is. I opened it up...

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...
