Friday Favorites

Happy Happy Friday!

Here’s what I’m loving this week:

[one] Once Upon a Time

I just watched the episode with Belle and Rumple’s wedding and I loved their vows!  And Belle’s hat!  I need that hat.  I really love their story.  I’m only on season 4 now so don’t tell me anything that I haven’t seen yet!

[two] Parent Teacher Conferences

We had parent teacher conferences this week and I am so happy that our kindergartner is doing so well.  His teacher is amazing and we are so thankful for her.

[three] Free Advent Calendar

Yesterday I shared a new Christmas tradition we’re doing this year and I shared a free 24 page Advent calendar.  Each page has a scene from the story of the birth of Jesus and a Scripture reading for the day.

[four] The Weather

I have no complaints about the current weather situation.  Fresh air and walks with the boys are so good for my soul.

[five] Thanksgiving Vegetable

I’m signed up to make a vegetable for Thanksgiving.  Someone else is making green bean casserole and a salad so I need to come up with a veggie that is not one of those.  Or potatoes.  I was thinking maybe some kind of veggie gratin.  Any suggestions for me?  Any fool proof crowd-pleasing recipes?  What veggies do you have at Thanksgiving?

Hope you have a good weekend!

    Love that advent calendar! And for your veggie: brussels sprouts cooked in bacon!

      Yes! My husband and I were talking about it last night and he mentioned brussels sprouts.

    Vegetable side dishes are difficult, I’m thinking of making a broccoli and cheese side dish. http://www.supersimpleways.com

    Love the advent calendar! For your veggie side – brown sugar and butter on cooked carrots are always a kid and adult crowd pleaser!

      Thank you! And yes, now that you mention it my sister-in-law makes brown sugar carrots like that sometimes and they are good! Thanks for the idea!

      I’m ready to launch into full on Christmas mode soon. I think this week I’m going to work on sewing stockings.
