Hello!
This week on the blog we kicked off Thanksgiving with a comforting chicken and stuffing bake. I also shared my favorite Thanksgiving kitchen essentials, brown butter mashed sweet potatoes, roasted Brussels sprouts with hot bacon dressing, and scalloped corn.
I’ve rounded up all of my Sephora sale favorites for easy shopping.
Gift guides on the blog are live and include several thoughtfully curated lists to make holiday shopping easier:
- Hostess Gift Guide
- Kitchen Gift Guide
- Under $25 Gift Guide
- Beauty Gift Guide
You can also find all my favorite picks in my Amazon storefront and my LTK shop. I’ve put together a few gift guide collections there as well to help you find ideas quickly.
There’s a new menu for the week and a fresh “A Week in the Life” post that gives a peek into our everyday routines.
If you own a copy of the Everyday Dinners cookbook, you’re invited to join the Everyday Dinners cookbook club on Facebook. It’s a warm, helpful community for sharing recipe ideas and encouragement as you cook through the book.
xoxo
