Only a Week Until Thanksgiving!

Just one more week until my stomach's favorite holiday! I'll be cooking up a storm this week to get ready, but here are a few recipes I'll be using this holiday and some I have used before that are to-die-for! My compliments to The Pioneer Woman from whom many of these recipes originate. What can I say, she knows how to cook a Thanksgiving feast!

Cornbread Dressing with Sausage and Apples

Cranberry-Pomegranate Sauce

Creamy Mashed Potatoes (Shh! The secret is CREAM CHEESE)

Emeril's Roasted Brussel Sprouts

Ellie's Green Bean Casserole

Whiskey-Glazed Carrots

Pecan Pie

Strawberry Shortcake Cake - special for my Dad

Pumpkin Cream Pie- perfect for everyone!

Dear readers, what are your favorite Thanksgiving dishes? Will you be cooking this holiday?

This Week

I was on the hunt for a quality pair of leather boots this past weekend. I found these Veronica Slouch Boots from Frye and they are amazing! They're extremely versatile, have great quality leather, and the calf portion fits very close. I am still working on breaking them in since they fit snugly and I would like to be able to wear them with thick socks as it gets colder. 

How cute and comfy does Paris look laying on my bed? I may be biased, but she is the perfect dog!

                  

Today was a nice sunny November day in California.

Dear Readers, how has your week been so far? 

A Fashionable All-American Wedding Dress

Vogue finally printed Lauren Lauren's (nee Bush) beautiful wedding dress designed by Ralph Lauren himself! Doesn't she look gorgeous? I absolutely LOVE the lace! What do you think?

'Nuff Said

How can you resist the puppy face of this little puggle? You can't, she get everything she wants. Do you spoil your dog? I can never seem to resist giving this little one and my Paris love all day.

A Gossip Girl Wedding

One of my guilty pleasures is watching Gossip Girl each week. I especially enjoy Blair's witty banter with the other characters and her personal style. How beautiful does she look as a princess bride in an upcoming episode? Happy Hump Day readers!
