Wednesday Favorites

via

Happy Wednesday, friends! I hope you all had a restful and enjoyable Thanksgiving weekend. I was incredibly fortunate to spend great quality time with my family, cook a lot of delicious food, enjoy the gorgeous Southern California weather, and even snag some great deals out shopping (but not on Black Friday!). A very blessed and thankful holiday indeed.

Here are some favorites for your mid-week enjoyment:

I will definitely be making this Eggnog French Toast now that it's December.

Four ways to become more cultured (though, I would venture to say more educated than cultured).

For anyone else curious about what Lizzie McGuire would be up to these days :-) 

The effect left on a community when a teenage girl is recruited by ISIS.

These twice baked potatoes with kale look absolutely delicious (and not too difficult to make).

Been burning Bath & Body Works' Salty Carmel candle.

Enjoyed Marie's perspective on dealing with criticism. 

Bought of box of these from Trader Joe's...so freakin' good! Highly recommend. Enough said.
