For those who celebrate Christmas, I hope your week is the merriest! We had a blissfully lazy weekend around the house, checking off our last-minute holiday chores. It was a welcome break in the action after spending the previous weekend in Chicago celebrating Dave’s 40th birthday and enjoying the city’s holiday décor.

Why we kiss under the mistletoe.

Here are my favorite products of 2021.

For a fun (and easy) appetizer idea, try this antipasto wreath.

I’m beyond thrilled that Instagram is bringing back the chronological feed as an option next year.

Guidelines for achieving your new year’s goals.

These eye-catching floral cocktail rings are so much fun! I also love these sculptural earrings that now come in my favorite shade of pink.

Can an actor’s fashion contract influence the costumes in their films?

I don’t know what we’ll be doing on New Year’s Eve yet, but I will be wearing this festive headband.

How bathing suits shaped the Miss America pageant.

Six retail executives reflect on 2021 and offer insight into the sartorial trends that actually sold.

Have a very merry week!

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊

Merry Christmas! My own Christmas tree isn’t a Merry Christmas! 

My own Christmas tree isn’t as tinsel’d as this one from the Christmas museum in Salzburg nor does it rotate. Consider these goals for next year.

I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint c I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint cookies and they’re delicious, but a lot of work and they don’t hold up well. If you’re planning on them this year, don’t add the jam dollop until just before you’re ready to serve them. The moisture gets sucked in overnight. Still good, of course, just softer than the first day.
