The Perfect Christmas Breakfast

Isn't having family around for the holidays just the best?!

The get togethers, the laughs, the games, and the FOOD. We love it all! 

We know a HUGE part of entertaining, especially around this time of year, involves food, and making sure any guests you have staying with you are well fed. Breakfast can often be the most hectic meal to have prepared, since it needs to be ready early in the morning. 

And sometimes that means the cook doesn't get to sit around the table and eat with everyone because they're slaving away in the kitchen...

This Baked French Toast is the perfect meal to serve a lot of people, while allowing everyone to be at the table together. You prepare everything the night before, and then just pop it in the oven in the morning!

 There are a ton of Baked French Toast recipes out there, and we've tried a lot of them, but this one takes the prize!

Nutty Christmas :)

We are officially in full blown Christmas mode. The decorations are up, and we're already starting to knock out a lot of our Christmas gifts. I don't know about you, but sometimes those random gifts we need to get are the hardest. For teachers, coworkers, clients, etc., you want to give them something nice, but also don't want to break the bank! This year we've got you covered with the perfect gift... It's super easy, inexpensive, and an awesome gift for almost anyone!

These delicious cinnamon sugar almonds are sure to please, and can be made ahead of time for gifting. Below is the recipe and instructions on how to make them :)

First you put your almonds in a bowl, and coat them with your beaten egg white

Next, coat the almonds with your cinnamon sugar, vanilla, and salt mixture.

Then spread your almonds out on a pan and bake.

…and get ready for your house to smell amazing. 

These almonds are delicious, and the cutest gift when packaged in a mason jar with a cute label and ribbon. Find the free  printables for these darling labels HERE.

We promise these will be a hit ;) Enjoy!

We made these at Paige's house, and also wanted to share some of her favorite Christmas decorations…just because there's nothing we love more than decking out our homes for Christmas!
