Patches the Dachshund

Good morning friends, how are you? I am very excited because today because my recipe for Walnut Basil Pesto is going to be featured in the FoodTalkDaily newsletter. I am excited for the weekend, I am feeling a little overextended this week, too many Zoom calls and too many classes this week, my brain needs a break and time to rest, regroup. I have lots to share this week so let’s get to it!

Food

Cranberry Almond Coffee Cake

Cranberries are not just for sauce, they can also be used for this sweet Cranberry Almond Coffee Cake, this cake is delicious and it freezes beautifully so you could make a couple and have them all through the season. 

Thanksgiving is just a week away and if you are looking for a new roll or biscuit to your holiday table check out the scrumptious looking Caramelized Onion and Gruyere Drop Biscuits . 

This Cheese & Onion Quiche from Drizzle & Dip is an easy and delicious brunch, lunch or dinner. 

Dutch Apple Pie is perfect for Thanksgiving, check out this recipe from Modern Honey. Or make an even easier dessert and try Cranberry Apple Crisp from Baker By Nature.

Looking for a new winter cocktail? This chocolate chestnut cocktail from A Cookie Named Desire might be your new favorite.

Finds

I love all of these ornaments from Hannah Dale, especially this little mouse. 

I ordered these Johnson Brothers “The Night Before Christmas” Dishes last year and we are already using them to add a little of the holiday spirit to our meals. You can also find some of the pieces at TJ Maxx and Marshall’s. 

Love these slip on Minetonka plaid slippers and this plaid shirt(which is on sale for $10.00) and these cute lounging pants.

Little Girls Christmas Dress

How cute is little girls dress with the cups of cocoa pockets? I don’t have any little granddaughters otherwise this would be in my cart. 

Fall Dress

I LOVE this dress!

All winter long we have a puzzle on the dining room table and as we walk through we stop and add a few pieces. We also always have puzzles at my mom’s for Christmas, it is a nice way to relax when you want a break from all of the activities, this one look like one out whole family would enjoy. 

If you would like to see more of my Christmas Finds & Gifts Ideas just click or follow my Pinterest page.

That is it for this week friends. I wish you a safe and happy weekend, wear your masks to protect yourselves and others. And, if you are feeling lonely or sad reach out to family, friends and me! 

Last but not least, if you found a book, movie, podcast, recipe or anything else that you think we would enjoy please share it in the comments. Thank you!
