Weekend Comfort: Recipes & More ❄️


Hi Reader-

Thank you to those of you that already filled out my reader survey. I love reading them!

After avoiding the germs in my house for the last 3 weeks, a cold caught me 🤧

I'm bummed because we were supposed to check out a new (to us) antique shop today but it'll have to wait. Any movie/show recommendations for me?

Friday Recipe Inspiration ✨

  • If you're also under the weather, maybe some Medicine Ball Tea?
  • Or some lemon chicken soup.
  • I actually gathered up all my slow cooker soup recipes into one place this week.
  • They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away...do you think these count? 🤔
  • If you're doing any sports watching this weekend, or just want an easy meal, these meatballs are perfect.
  • For a weekend breakfast/brunch option, this quiche has great reviews.
  • And for a sweet treat, these mini cheesecakes are easily customizable with whichever toppings you like.

In shopping news, I got three of these nightlights & think they're so cute. They're heavy and really nicely made.

Talk to you tomorrow!
