Happy weekend!

Exciting news: the digital version of The Pretty Dish is available now for $1.99 for a limited time. If you’ve been meaning to pick it up, now’s the moment to grab it before the offer ends.

We have a fun weekend ahead, including a brunch with Santa, and I’m planning to do plenty of baking. If you’re still shopping or looking for ideas, I’ve gathered a bunch of gift guides to help you find the perfect present: women’s, men’s, kids’, kitchen favorites, cookbooks and foodie gifts, beauty, and stocking stuffers under $25. There’s so much great inspiration in those guides.

What are you up to this weekend? I hope you’re enjoying a joyful holiday season! xo
