SNOWSTORMS AND POLKA DOT CANDLES

PEOPLE!
I won't start with any small talk this week, because I am too excited!
WE GOT OUR FIRST SNOWSTORM THIS WEEKEND!

Okay, maybe "storm" is a little much, but it snowed for about 10 hours straight! Everything is so much prettier with a fresh coat of snow, isn't it? I snapped this pic early in the morning yesterday:

Friday one of my amazing coworkers hosted a white elephant/ ugly sweater party at her house for a group of work friends. She and I made the lovely background you see in the photo- and as everyone came into the party we made them strike a pose! She compiled them all into this awesome collage:
(Since I was taking all the photos I'm the last one...holding a gold unicorn. Yup, sign of a good party!)

In other news, to my fellow chosen peeps celebrating: Happy Hanukkah!! Please note the awesome pink polka dot candles I've been using:
 Besides Saturday being the first night of Haunkkah, it was also my pretty sister's birthday AND a certain couple's anniversary. Yep, happy 3 years to Beauty & the Beard! We clean up okay, right?
I got a new bittersweet colored wool coat at work the other day, and I have been wearing it everywhere. Last week I had to take a picture because I kind of looked like a box of Crayolas had exploded on me: 
(find me on Instagram here)

Oh, and in case you were wondering, here is the recipe I'll be sharing tomorrow....
Also something to look for this week is a post on wrapping with Kraft paper. I know, I can feel your excitement already- CALM YOURSELVES!

Thanks for sticking with me in the random recaps.
How was your weekend, friends?
Anyone else get some awesome snow??

  6. I'm so jealous you have snow!! I'm pretty sure it's never going to snow here this winter. It's going to be in the mid 70's today...lame. Happy anniversary!!! I love that picture! Oh and on Saturday I'm going to make those scones you posted about. I hope they aren't too hard.
