A Wisconsin New Year

December 28, 2015 by jessica 23 Comments

NYE-1

I can’t believe 2016 is just a few days away! The dawn of a new year means an onslaught of resolutions and one last chance to dress up before the winter doldrums set in. I’m linking up with five other ladies today to share what we’re planning to wear on Dec. 31 or, in my case, what we would wear if we we were going out!

You know how much I love short swing dresses and flats, so it’s no surprise that I’d stick with my favorites for a night out with just a few favorite accessories: a quirky bag, statement earrings, and a cuff. However, I wish I had donned a major necklace. The neckline seems too bare for the year’s most glamorous night. (If only this was in my budget…) When the big night rolls around, though, this dress will remain snug in my closet. We’re visiting my parents in Northern Wisconsin over the weekend where I feel overdressed in anything more than jeans and a sweater! (You can expect some pretty great Snapchats of the glory of this bizarre Northwoods bar if you follow me at bedknobsbaubles.)

No Boot!

It’s the first full day I can go without the boot! When I first slipped on sneakers yesterday afternoon and took a step forward, it felt like I was stumbling into a hole. I had gotten used to the thickness of the boot and expected my foot to land much earlier! The transition back to walking normally is going to be a challenge. My muscles atrophied while I was using crutches for five weeks and I’m only now beginning to regain some of my strength and balance. I feel wobbly, my foot is sore, and I’m limping. But, I’m in sneakers! We’re heading downtown for dinner tonight to celebrate the removal of the Aircast and then to Louisville this weekend for a short summer road trip (we’re staying at 21c!).

Buying tickets to the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit l Buying tickets to the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit last November seemed both reckless and naively hopeful. I’m so glad I went for it though, as our first fully vaccinated adventure has been the breath of fresh air we needed. (I’m also happy to report that most people are masked up walking outside, and there are plenty of social-distanced dining options in Chicago.)
Now that we’re fully vaccinated, I'm sure Dave i Now that we’re fully vaccinated, I'm sure Dave is thrilled to be an Instagram Boyfriend again when we're out for our coffee runs. ☕️ 😉 (Don’t worry, we haven’t stopped wearing our masks yet!)

I’d also like to point out that I’m embracing the middle part as not to let my Millennial show. 😉

I'm so excited for longer days and warm evenings o I'm so excited for longer days and warm evenings on the patio -- and this subscription to @winc couldn't haven't come at a better time to usher in the new season with wine in hand! 

If you're unfamiliar with Winc, the California-based winery was founded in 2012 with the belief that wine should be more accessible. So, they've introduced an online membership experience that suggests wines based on your taste preferences making it a really fun way to try wine if you’re at all intimidated by an expansive wine aisle!

Interested in trying it yourself? Use my link to get 40% off your first order and free shipping! That’s 4 bottles of wine for just $39! Learn more at winc.mivh.net/Ryyn3v

I know everyone loves wick trimmers for their cand I know everyone loves wick trimmers for their candles, but you're missing out if you don't have a taper shaver, too! It's an inexpensive gadget that can save you from forcing a candle into a holder and risking breakage — of either the holder or the candle itself. I linked to some options in today's blog post! (URL in bio.)
When we moved into our home three-and-a-half years When we moved into our home three-and-a-half years ago, Dave added an indoor security camera to our living room. I’ll be the first to admit that the option for 24/7 surveillance (which can, thankfully, be shut off automatically when you arrive home) was a little strange, but it’s absolutely worth the peace of mind that comes with a smart camera. When we’ve been away, we’ve checked in on the cat to see what he’s been up to and we’ve been able to verify that the person detected in our house was someone we lent a key to! We’ve since decided to relocate that one outdoors and were delighted to have the opportunity to partner with @ecobeehome to try out their SmartCamera as an indoor replacement. It was a natural fit as we already have – and love – an ecobee thermostat and this camera integrates seamlessly into the brand’s app. The camera has a 180-degree field of view that lets you track activity in your home, giving us a much wider view of the main floor than the other camera allowed. Privacy is still paramount as the camera uses WiFi and GPS to detect when family members are home, which shuts off the recording option. It’s also equipped with voice controls and Alexa, allowing you to connect with the technology you need for your household. And, while it’s not the most important aspect of a smart camera, the design of this one is *really* good.
