Holiday Cards

{image found via tinyprints.com, style- joyous contrast}
It's that time again!
Time to start thinking about your holiday cards!
I have some great and easy options that will make creating and sending unique holiday cards a snap.
One of my favorite places to create a unique and cute invite, announcement or card is

They have a great sale of 25% off of Holiday cards through 11/9 using the code hol25

Another great one is through a friend of mine, Vanessa Warren of

We used her for our holiday cards last year and I loved them! She has great prices and adorable items. She e-mails you a jpeg of your design and you can have them printed anywhere that prints pictures.

Another great option is Shutterfly, they have some great designs and they are printed through Shutterfly which makes it a one stop shop!

Go out there and get creative!

Great new book!

I firmly believe in planing out your week before it even starts.
This includes grocery shopping, meal planning and even day to day to do lists.
Since finding out we were expecting,
I have been battling some serious morning ( read random times of day) sickness.
It has been hard for me to grocery shop because looking at food was gross and to do lists seemed endless since getting up meant nausea.
So for the past few months I have been pretty off my game.
As of last week I have been feeling much better and as that came I stumbled across


It's the new book out from Jessica Seinfeld and it's wonderful. It is full of food that is actually easy to make and tasty as well! All of the recipes are loaded with veggies as well, some hidden and some in plain sight.
I plan on making the chicken enchiladas one night which include sweet potato puree!
You can find the book on amazon.com or in Costco which is where I got it!
