Hello, everyone! I’m sorry for the weird posting schedule, we are trying to survive without internet at our new place. Cross your fingers we get it soon! Anyway, today I’m sharing an engagement gift guide since this is definitely diamond season. 🙂
Christmas in Kohler
Hello, my friends. I hope you’re still enjoying a nice holiday break. We are in the middle of packing up our apartment, preparing to move for NYE! So, I think it goes without saying, I’m happy to relive our beautiful weekend in Kohler, Wisconsin.

Holiday Hostess Gift Guide
1* | 2* | 3 | 4* | 5* | 6* | 7 | 8*
Merry Christmas week, everyone! Today I’m sharing some ideas for hostess gifts that go beyond the standard wine, flowers, or chocolates. Bonus: almost all of these are currently available on Amazon Prime so you can order and receive in time for Christmas! My personal favorites on this list are the Veuve (obviously) and the Waterford 2016 ornament. Waterford makes a signature snowflake ornament every year and they look so beautiful on Christmas trees. But, the truffle oils and the custom state cheese board are also great gifts!
P.S. – Williams Sonoma Peppermint Bark is currently 20% off! You’re welcome 😉

Christmastime Mulled Wine
Happy Friday! I’m back with another festive cocktail for you and this one is perfect for entertaining. This Christmastime Mulled Wine (see what I did there??) can be made a few hours before a party, kept warm on your stove or in a crockpot, and then served to your guests.
Unconventional Charcuterie
One of my favorite little pleasures is a great charcuterie board. If you’re not familiar with that word, it’s French for meat and cheese. And, if you’re anything like my husband, that word alone is enough to deter you from ordering one. But, a few years ago I was at a winery in Arizona and they served us their sparkling moscato with white cheddar Cheetos. I’m serious. It was delicious!! They later explained that it’s a perfect combination because of the air, crunch, and flavor. That one sip is all it took for me to re-create and brainstorm other unconventional charcuterie items to pair with your wine and not intimidate your guests.
Hello Fresh Review
Like I’ve said before, I am not a chef. I do not enjoy cooking. Meals are a means to an end for me. The same can be said for my husband. We can cook, and when we do, we try to make healthy, easy, quick meals. So, when one of my friends sent me a free trial of Hello Fresh, we figured we had nothing to lose. The free trial sent us three meals and waived the cost of $70.
I had a few assumptions about Hello Fresh. First, that the meals were relatively easy to make. Second, that it’s healthy. I was half-wrong.
