Wood US idea

Sorry Ive been MIA for the past couple of days, Ive been busy getting ready to host our first Thanksgiving. We had a few friends over and it was a success! We wish our families could of been with us too, but being so far away, traveling to the east coast or vice versa wasnt an option for both Thanksgiving and Christmas, so well be there for Christmas.

David and I made our first turkey using Alton Browns recipe, it was very good, I would highly recommend if you are looking for a new recipe! (I did cut the brine recipe down to fit in a turkey roasting bag since I didnt have a 5 gallon bucket or the space in the refrigerator. Just make sure to put it in something to catch the liquid in case it leaks) 

Ill be back next week, but to kick the holiday season off, Im offering 30% off my etsy shop this weekend. Use code: HOLIDAY30 at checkout.

Here are a few popular gift options:

If youre behind like me, heres a few things on my holiday wish list! Hopefully Davids reading ;)

Heres what Im loving at Anthro - guess Im loving white, gold and neutral :)

White chevron wallpaper - love the subtle pattern | Gold and white monogram mug - perfect for holding  pencils or your morning coffee | Script bracelet - this would be great for layering - love the simplicity | Gold polka dot pillow - enough said :) (original anthro is out of stock so I added PB Teen) | Measuring Hedgies - oh my cuteness, I suppose you could actually use these to measure things - Id probably use them to hold odds and ends on my desk | Wishbone stamp - again super cute!

The cold weather in Ohio has got me craving cozy things! Heres my top picks!



Monogram throw - Ill take one in white and black please! | Mint glittens - how great is the color!? | black pom hat - who doesnt love a pom pom :) | Stripe infinity scarf - perfect for throwing on as you head out the door | Riding boots (or if youre a 6.5 theyre on sale at Piperlime!!) - Ive been looking for the perfect boot for years, yes Im picky :) I just ordered these, fingers crossed! | Love a long sweater, this one looks so cozy - long version out of stock, boo! but heres the pullover!

Happy Friday! I hope that you have a great weekend - full of relaxing, yummy food and maybe a little shopping! :)
