So, I’m not OFFICIALLY back from my Christmas blog break, yet. Soon, soon. But, I couldn’t resist sharing with you a round-up of fabulous treats and appetizers for New Year’s Eve parties! I know that’s what I’m thinking about and I bet a lot of you are too. I hope these give you some inspiration!
Girlfriends! Just wanted to take a moment to wish you a fabulous Christmas! It’s been a great year and I’m so thankful for all the support, shares, comments, and contributions you’ve made to the blog. Next month, you’ll be meeting the year’s new contributors and we’ll be back to a great idea every day. I’ll…
I don’t think any other flavor says, “Christmastime is here!” quite like peppermint does, and it would just be wrong to go through the Christmas season without consuming some type of peppermint treat! So, in the spirit of Christmas, I’ve rounded-up 30 peppermint treats that are sure to rock your taste-buds’ world this Christmas. Enjoy!
I have my high school friend and then my husband to thank for introducing me to country music and for turning me into a fan! There’s just something genuine and approachable about country music, especially older country music. My husband loves “classic” country, and of course that means he has a lot of Garth Brooks’ music. I was excited to tell him (and you all) about Garth’s brand new single, “Mom.”
“Mom” is a very moving song about a conversation God has a with a little baby who’s headed to Earth to meet his/her mother. The lyrics of the song describe what a mother is, and it’s incredibly touching. I challenge you to listen to it and not cry.
Hello everyone! I’m back today with a great Christmastime round-up! With Christmas just around the corner, we thought it would be fun to pull together some of the best and most popular Christmas posts from the AMAZING contributors we’ve had here at ‘Or so she says…’ this past year. Seriously though, these chicas are some of the most creative and talented people I know. I hope you can find something here that will help make your Christmas this year even more special!
Hello, Friends! It’s Cathy from Lemon Tree Dwelling, here today to share a delicious holiday breakfast recipe with you! Believe it or not, Christmas is just one week away….and I don’t know about you, but I’m not quite ready! I still have a few gifts to buy, a few treats to package up, a few Christmas dresses to find…..oh – and some food to think about!
Delicious Pound Cake French Toast topped with cherry pie filling and sprinkled with powdered sugar. The perfect breakfast for Christmas morning!
I’ve been looking for a great breakfast idea for Christmas morning. Something easy, because I have always been a no big meals on Christmas day kind of gal…who wants to spend their Holiday in the kitchen cooking all day? I love cooking/baking and all, but on this day I just want to spend my time hanging with the fam!
So, when I saw this post that had 7 amazing pie crust designs I started thinking. That can be dangerous at times! HA! Anyway, I thought I’d whip up a beautiful Christmas Quiche with a beautiful snowflake crust (inspired by the Lovely Lace crust) that can be made the day before Christmas so that on Christmas morning all you have to do is bake and serve!
I love collecting Christmas books. They’re such an easy and fun way to create a special moment with the kids and build upon the holiday excitement. After Christmas is over, I pack them away with all of the decorations, so each year when I pull them out, the kids are excited to see the, all over again!
I wanted to add some books to our stack this year, so of course, I hit up my trusty Facebook gals! (You girls always have the best suggestions!)
Sephora. Ahhh… one of my favorite places to shop! For as little make-up as I wear, I still love trying everything! … hair products, make-up, face creams, hand lotion, body scrubs, you name it. But, you know me. I have this strange need to try all products, which is fab for you, because then I can recommend the best!
So, since I have several Sephora faves, I decided it deserves its own post…
In our house Christmas morning can be pretty busy. I’m sure it’s like that in most households. The kids get up, we have some family time & open gifts. Sometimes we get together with friends & once in a great while we travel to be with family.
This year will be quiet & I am so looking forward to it. The chaos has lessened now that the kids are older. However- one thing has not changed, the need to have something wonderful on hand for breakfast on Christmas morning.
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNER: SHIRLEY EMITT! I’m always on the look out for fun ways to help keep my little preschooler entertained and active while his sisters are away at school. I can only play so many board games, games of tag and coloring pages before I have to get some…
Surprise! It’s Kimberly from Packed with Fun, the official blog for Get Away Today and I’m back on “Or She Says” for my “real” final post of the year. When Mariel asked if I wanted to share my top 5 family vacations to give as a gift, I was so excited to post about it. Vacations are the best and it can be difficult to narrow down a destination that everyone will love.
I put together my list of top 5 family vacations to give as a gift based on places that families can all enjoy together and where our agents have been finding the very best deals.
