HAPPY NEW YEAR, Friends!!!! I hope that you enjoyed yourself. Chris and I had a quiet new years eve of wine, cheese, and baby snuggles with puppy pets. Each year it seems I make resolutions that I don’t really keep but this year I’m determined to try a little harder. I even wrote them down in my planner with deadlines!

So what do I have planned for this year, TONS. I’ve decided that there are a few things I want to do this year.

Health/Wellness

Complete a Whole90

 Train for half-marathon

Focus on my yoga practice

Join Crossfit, get stronger

Personal

Read one book per month #yearofthebookworm

Pay down debt

Play more guitar

Learning

Take a sewing course

Complete the A Beautiful Mess Photography Course

Blog

Post a blog post at least 3x a week

Create a content calendar and treat my blog like a business

Family

Take family walks 5x week

Enrol Wendy in Swimming Lessons

Start a college fund for the little munchkin

Plan a date night (or date) at least 2x a month

So those are my goals/resolutions, whatever you would like to call them for 2017. We plan on making 2017 a great year! You can make your new year great too! Just be determined and remember what resolutions you made. To help you stick to your goals, I’m giving away a Creative Year 2017 Spiral Planner by Recollections. If you know me then you know that I’m a bit of a planner addict, I even wrote a review of the Erin Condren LifePlanner, and I think that good planning is key to keeping resolutions. So here’s your chance to win a great planner for the new year! Enter below for your chance.

Do you make resolutions? What are your resolutions for 2017?

Happy New Year, friends!

Although 2016 hasn’t been kind to many this year, I can’t help but feel grateful for my little one. She is such a bright spot in our lives and because of her I cant help but feel grateful for 2016.

My Favourite Gingerbread Cookies

Happy day before Christmas, everyone!!! I can’t believe it’s already here. I don’t know about you, but my day is busy with preparations for tonight and tomorrow. It’s such an exciting and busy time. But I’m never too busy to make a few treats for Santa’s plate. One of my favourite recipes to make this time of year is my gingerbread cookie recipe. I have changed and perfected this recipe over the years. This is a favourite among my friends and family, it’s even requested. Although the cookies turn out really tasty, my favourite part is actually using the cool cookie cutters that I have. I mean common, look at some of the shapes I made above, Star Wars cutters, ninjabread cutters, funny gingerbread cookies etc. It’s a lot of fun. You can even get your kids to help out. I know growing up, I helped out with the Christmas baking, especially the cookies. Rolling out the dough, cutting shapes, decorating them, and then the best part, EATING THEM. So if you are looking for something to bake today with your family, and need some cookies to set out for Santa, this is the recipe for you.

Portuguese Kings Cake (Bolo Rei) – A Christmas Tradition

Bolo Rei Portuguese Christmas Cake

If you ask a Portuguese person what dessert says Christmas, you’ll be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn’t say it’s the Kings Cake or in Portuguese the Bolo Rei. Kings Cake is a traditional Portuguese cake that is only eaten between December 25th and January 6th. In many Portuguese homes, Christmas isn’t over on December 26th, it’s over on January 6th or Epiphany (Three Kings’ Day). For anyone who wasn’t raised in a Christian home, Kings’ Day is the day that the Three Wise Men or Three Kings visited baby Jesus with gifts. The cake itself, which is actually more of a sweet bread, is shaped like a wreath or a crown with a hole in the centre and decorated with candied fruit and nuts. It is absolutely delicious. This cake isn’t difficult to make but it’s so time-consuming but the end result is totally worth it.
