Today, Friday officially meets December! I can’t believe it’s already December, this years has just blown by! I am so excited for everything the holidays have to offer! I love the cold weather, cozy sweaters, gingerbread lattes, all the shopping, baking… I wish it could be like this all year long!

As you all know, the holidays also mean crazy busy hectic days… Le sigh, I feel so behind on blogging. Hopefully, I’ll get the chance to catch up over the weekend!

For date night this week, I made Paula Deen’s Lots O’Meat Lasagna  and also got to try her garlic bread recipe (which is so good!). We called it Paula night :)

I think date night was the highlight of my week! Hope everyone had a great week? Now that holiday season is in full swing, have your schedules gotten a lot busier?

Here are some of my favorites/disasters from the week that made it memorable…
