Simply Having A Wonderful Christmastime

I cannot believe Christmas is over already. We had so much fun this Christmastime...Here is a glimpse into a well spent December with family and friends. I will be unplugging until January to spend some quality R&R time with my mom, dad and sister. There will be even more fashion, books, recipes, gorgeous homes and MORE in 2017, so stay tuned!!! I am working on some very special radio guests in the New Year as well. Au Revoir until next year!!!

My Christmas Gift For You!!!!!!

Merry Christmas!!! I have been working on this playlist for so long, most of this year. Every time I would hear a song on the radio I would snap a photo and file it away. FINALLY, I have all my songs in order and am ready to publish....so Voila. This playlist reminds me of a long time ago, actually decades ago. My peeps will remember so many of these and the places that they played and how much fun we all had. I wish I had a dollar for each time I heard someone say they wanted to go back, even just for one night, well, I hope that I can bring you back. These songs and my dear friends will always have a special place in my heart!! Happy Listening and hopefully singing!!!!!

Winter Wonderland Cocktail

So the Thanksgiving Cranberry Champagne Cocktail was such a huge hit that I thought I would keep the spirt momentum going and give you an AWESOME Holiday cocktail. This Winter Wonderland looks so good. For a Hanukkah celebration just swap out the candy cane for some blue crystal sugar or sprinkles. I think this is going to be another crowd pleaser!!!! Bottoms Up!!!

1.5 oz. Absolute Vanilla
.5 oz. Godiva White Chocolate Liquor
.5 oz. Creme de menthe white
2 oz milk of your choice
Ice

Add all ingredients to a shaker and shake
Pour over ice and garnish with a festive straw, stirrer and sprinkles

For an even more festive drink wet rim of glass and dip in crushed candy cane bits.

New Years Eve Outfits

Now that the sockings are hung and the presents are wrapped, you can start thinking of New Year's Eve plans. This year I will be ringing in the new year with my family and the Piano Man in South Florida but I wish I was celebrating with all of you. If we were going to a party together, I would love one of these chic looks. There are so many cute flare pants out now. I think they would look super fab with a sparkle or textured top. Cheers!!!

Christmas PJ's

I have been getting a ton requests from readers as to where to find cute Christmas PJ's. I always buy my kids a festive pair to wear on Christmas Eve but they usually cannot wait for the comffyness so they start wearing them as soon as they come out of the shopping bag!!!!! This year, I can't resist those adorable reindeer slippers. Sweet Dreams!!!!!
