Simple Christmas Breakfast Ideas

December 12, 2019 By Holly Leave a Comment

Christmas morning, to me, is all about hygge. If you aren’t familiar, hygge is a term used in both the Norwegian and Danish languages that roughly translates to a feeling of coziness or comfort. A good cup of coffee, warm pajamas, and relaxing by the fireplace with family is my idea of a perfectly hyggelig Christmas morning. One thing that helps keep Christmas morning relaxed in our home is having a plan for a simple but comforting breakfast. For today’s Friday Five, I’m sharing Simple Christmas Breakfast Ideas that will hopefully help you to have a more relaxing holiday morning.

Citrus Kissed Roasted Brussels Sprouts

November 19, 2019 By Lane 1 Comment

It took me a long time to discover the amazingness of Brussels Sprouts. I wasn’t really introduced to them until I was a young adult and then I wasn’t really sure what all of the fuss was about. Seemed like just small cabbages to me and I’ve never really loved cooked cabbage! But then I discovered ROASTED brussels sprouts. And better yet, these Citrus Kissed Roasted Brussels Sprouts… which are a little sweet, a little savory, a little citrus-y, and ALL delicious! Now I’m #teambrussels all the way.
