If you've been next me for a few years now, you'll know I'm obsessed amongst Outlander. So, it's no surprise that I'm super excited for the fifth season, which premieres on Feb 16th. Je suis prest!
I sentinel the present via Amazon Prime using the Starz Channel, thus if you've never seen it or read the books, I recommend going that road (Starz also has an app but I've never used it).
I conception to binge-watch seasons 1-4 the adjacent few weeks inward preparation. Once that's over & Droughtlander starts, I'm re-reading books 1-8. (I already started mass 1 as well as am nigh halfway through.)

So, I'm forthwith seeing a professional person counselor. Just to beak nigh things. I'm going for my tertiary session tomorrow.

We almost ever have got a pitcher of mutual frigidness brew tea inward our refrigerator because it's my beau's favorite affair to quaff year-round (even correct forthwith inward the middle of winter). Making it at domicile instead of buying the bottled materials saves us SO MUCH MONEY. And it tastes really smooth!

My boyfriend & I love breakfast sandwiches from Starbucks (especially when we're traveling), but they are NOT cheap. To salvage money, I brand my ain version at domicile amongst English linguistic communication muffins, double the eggs (the extra poly peptide helps us remain total longer), thick-cut bacon, as well as cheddar cheese.

I've been into vinegar-based slaws & barbecue sauces lately, thus I decided to remake the tangy ruby-red cabbage slaw that I originally published dorsum inward 2014. However, this fourth dimension I updated the recipe past times adding fresh jalapenos as well as cilantro, which gives it to a greater extent than layers of flavor. I typically serve this slaw amongst crock-pot ribs or on go past times of slow cooker pulled pork for sliders.
This is the other go-to salad dressing that I love to serve on leafy fruit salads or steak salads, peculiarly amongst bluish cheese. The maple & balsamic vinegar combo is SO GOOD. Please endeavor it sometime! I hollo back it's ameliorate amongst maple syrup than love or sugar. :)
I'm a huge fan of homemade hot cocoa using cacao powder (it's salubrious & decadent), but I similar to switch things upward on occasion as well as utilization good-quality bar chocolate (especially the peppermint kind) to brand a homemade hot chocolate instead. If y'all love hot cocoa, give this a endeavor sometime amongst your favorite bar chocolate + some whipped cream. It's super-duper cozy!
This is my novel favorite cookie recipe. It's pretty dang or thus a brownie cookie for me inward price of taste, but it's cakier. If y'all love my master flourless peanut butter cookies, y'all HAVE to endeavor this one. It's simply equally piece of cake (20 minutes start to finish) as well as fifty-fifty to a greater extent than chocolatey!
Again, give thanks y'all thus much for supporting . Cheers to 2020 as well as may your novel twelvemonth endure filled amongst skillful health, peace, as well as abundance!
