Louisa from Living Lou is back today with the PERFECT holiday recipe. Not your typical cookie or dinner suggestion, but the recipe you’ll want to have on hand throughout the craziness of the holidays. Now, I went on a juicing spree a while back and got totally derailed when I started to not like my…
A Perfectionist’s Guide to the Holidays
So Maxie wrote this guest post about the holidays. Of course, I was nodding my head the whole time I read it for the first time. And then! I realized that while it’s great for the holidays, the whole list is basically applicable for the rest of the year, too. A Perfectionist’s Guide to the…
