What's Up Wednesday: November 2021

 

Do you hear that sound Besties? It's the holidays knocking on our door! Tomorrow is Thanksgiving which in my book officially ushers in the holiday season. Who's excited? This gal! Before we get there I am linking up with Shay and Sheaffer to share what we have been up to in November and this was a pretty fun month. Take a break from your holiday prep and join me for What's Up Wednesday.

What We're Eating This Week

I know that everyone is focused on dinner on Thursday, but hey those people in your house (and you) need to eat the other days of week too! It's still a busy week around here so we will do some easy dinners.

Monday-We have a hockey game so we will do something easy or take out.

1. Share your holiday traditions

The first is that Running Daddy lights up the house outside. Depending on time, some years we decorate more than others. I am hoping to do it up big this year. Running Daddy is actually working on a small electrical fix outside to make sure we can light things up soon.

Friday Favorites Nov 12: Lots of Coffee, a Chicago destination, Cozy Fashions and a True Crime Podcast

 

Hey there Besties!  I stepped away for a few weeks and I am glad to be back. I have been knee deep in work and we were in Chicago for a hockey tournament this past weekend. Life is busy, but Good. Today's post has quite a bit of coffee for all of us coffee lovers, cozy clothes and a totally wild, true crime podcast. Join me for all the cozy as I link up with Erika and Andrea for my Friday Favorites.

1. Kuerig Duo

A few weeks ago I was gifted a Keurig duo to review. The ironic thing is that about two weeks before I received notice for this review  our coffee maker died, and we had just purchased a new one. So now we have two new coffee makers. This is a problem I gladly welcome.

We decided to put the Keurig on the bar downstairs. We had been talking about putting a Keurig in our family room but just never got around to it. Because my office is downstairs, a hot beverage near when I am working. is a Good thing.  I have K-cups and creamers close at hand for a midday break. I also like it for tea and Hockey Guy has been having a hot chocolate before bed every night.
