Thanksgiving Attire ๐Ÿงก

Thanksgiving as you well know is this Thursday! If you still find yourself unsure of what to wear I have a few ideas that will hopefully ease those worries. Now I know we are only going to be walking from the living room to The dining room to the basement and back again! However, it’s great to look good while doing it!

My go-to is a maxi dress! A maxi allows you to move around freely and not worry too much about being cold. If you’re in a super cold climate like me(Minnesota) you should still opt for tights; however the long length adds that extra layer of warmth! Photo Credit: J.Crew.comPhoto Credit: J. Crew.com

Spaghetti-strap cha-cha maxi dress in leopard print

Another personal favorite is the versatile midi dress! It’s long enough to say “hey I’m fancy” yet at the same time is short enough to were you aren’t having to walk around holding your dress up!

Classic lace is always an option! A lace dress is perfect for being your dressy go-to! You know that you’ll instantly feel fancy when you slip on a lace dress!

Pleats are feminine and flirty and make an understated yet chic statement!

A slip dress is a great versatile option and would be perfect with a sweater layered over it! Make sure the sweater is a bit slouchy so go up a size if needed!
Note: Technical Glitch! For whatever reason the link to the slip dress and sweater below are at the top of the post! Both from J. Crew!

Nevereven seamed satin slip dress $98

Jeweled embellished Fair Isle crewneck sweater $120

If you really want to go all out opt for a sequined number!

Cool Girl Maxi Dress

$300.00

If dresses aren’t really your style a jumpsuit is a great alternative!

All Natural Velvet Jumpsuit

Last but not least a cozy sweater and jeans works if you prefer to take a laidback approach to the day!

Whatever you choose to wear on Thanksgiving I hope you have a spectacular day and it’s filled with love.

With Love,

Spring-Layers!

I love Spring! It’s one of the best times to play dress up because of the fun layering you can do! This outfit is simple yet has fun details!

For Spring layering I like to wear lighter pieces because it can be warmer during the day so you want to be comfortable and not overheat. 
I paired a netted long sweater with a short sleeved sweatshirt to add depth and interest!
I kept the bottom half of the outfit simple with a strappy sandal and dark leggings!
I hope this inspires some Spring Layering!

My Green Drink ๐Ÿต

The Hubby says I look like the perfect, milennial hipster in this pic! Yes, I’m a millennial. Therefore, I can laugh at myself; which I do often because what’s life without laughter! Moving Forward!

I, like a lot of people have embarked on a healthy eating journey this January. I actually have been doing a detox every January for the last 4 years and I have actually stuck it out each time and come away feeling better. This is not to brag, it is a challenge for me like most people to stick to a healthy eating routine. However, I have a few tricks up my sleeve to make it a bit bearable! I will share one of them here!

I typically try to eat healthy Year-round, however, at Christmas time I indulge a lot!  Therefore,  January is the perfect time to reset my body and get it back to normal. For my detox I can’t have milk, which really cramps my style because I love drinking coffee, Tea and Flat Whites, it’s literally an everyday thing. I usually drink tea as a replacement for my coffee during this time. More specifically as of late I’ve been drinking Matcha. Which are green tea leaves crushed into a powder form.

I love drinking Matcha because to me it has a creamier texture on its own. It helps me deal with the lack of milk I can have. I also like how filling it is!

Click To Buy Matcha!

 

Click the pic for a link to buy Matcha. I bought mine at Lunds and Byerlys in Edina, MN. 

Green Tea has many benefits one of which is it contains antioxidants! For me, I use it to help curb my hunger during my detox and it’s also a great way to take a relaxing moment to yourself.


You can read more about Green Tea benefits here: Green Tea Facts

Back to how I drink it!

I follow the instructions on the tea’s packaging.

Then I add: Stevia( 0 calorie all natural sweetener), Vanilla Extract, and cream when I can!


I use a honey spoon to stir my Matcha!


I hope you enjoy this yummy drink! I love to drink Matcha whether I’m detoxing or not because to me it’s delicious!

Have a great Week!

Baking and Roasting:Egg Bake๐Ÿณ

I absolutely love breakfast food and I was really craving this place called the Pancake House which serves incredible breakfast. However, it’s only open until 3PM and I knew I wouldn’t make it there in time to not be annoying to all the staff, so I employed my second option which was to make something myself! I decided to go with an Egg Bake because I wanted the meal to be hearty so my family and I could have it for dinner! This is perfect for a brunch and/or entertaining!

I call this recipe : ยฉRuby Madison’s French Egg Bake Souffle

Total Time: 1 hr 5 min

Prep: 5 min Cook: 1 hr This dish has about 6 to 8 servings

Supplies: 13 by 9-inch baking dish

Ingredients:

1 small-medium circular block of Brie Cheese

1 pound cheddar cheese, coarsely grated

12 large eggs, lightly beaten

2 cups sour cream
1/2 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 two-pack of Refrigerated Pillsbury Pie Crusts

Rosemary, White Pepper, Thyme

Butter

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Butter the 13×9” baking dish and spread one of the pie crusts to cover the bottom of the pan. You will have to flatten crust by rolling to accomplish this. Cut the Brie Cheese lengthwise and arrange flat thin slices to cover the entire pie crust in pan.
Whisk the eggs with the sour cream and whipping cream in a large bowl until blended. Season with pepper, Rosemary, White Pepper, and Thyme, blend it evenly . Pour the eggs over the Brie cheese and pie crust bottom into the pan . Spread the cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the eggs. Roll out and Cut the second pie crust into thin strips and do a criss-cross pattern if possible over the top, and bake in the middle of the oven until golden, about 45 minutes. Salt to taste. Enjoy with coffee and bacon!

Baking and Roasting!

Hey Dolls, 

This week has been so full of cooking, baking etc. I like to call it the season of eating lol. I made two things that were especially delicious and I’d like to share the recipes with you! One is a Prime Rib Roast and the other is an Egg Bake, I will share in another post.

Let’s Cook!
Whenever, I am in charge of Christmas dinner I make a Prime Rib Roast. This year I made a Roast with a recipe I got from the Pioneer Woman as a base. However, I made a couple of changes.



Total Time:
1 hr 25 min  Prep: 10 min   Inactive:  20 min Cook: 55 min  Yield: 16 servings

Ingredients

1 whole boneless rib eye (12 to 15 pounds)
Olive oil
1/4 cup tri-color peppercorns
5 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup minced garlic
My added ingredients:

Rosemary Oil
White Pepper
Add these with the other ingredients
Directions:

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.

Cut the rib eye in half (roast halves separately for more controlled/even cooking).

Heat some oil in a large skillet over high heat. Sear both rib eye halves until a nice dark golden color, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Place the peppercorns into a bag and crush with a rolling pin. Shred the leaves from the thyme and rosemary sprigs. Mix the salt with the crushed peppercorns, rosemary leaves, thyme leaves and garlic. Pour olive oil over the rib eye and pour on the rub mix. Pat slightly to get it to stick to the meat. Roast for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 275 degrees F and roast until a meat thermometer registers 125 for rare/medium-rare, about 20 more minutes (the roast will continue to cook slightly after removing from the oven). Remove from the oven and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing.

There are brunches to make, coffee to drink, cookies to bake, parties to go to etc. it can be exhausting trying to keep up. I’ve come up with a few Outfit ideas to help you get through this busy week!

Pajamas For Day and Night

Along with Athleisure, the pajama For Day trend has been gaining momentum. Make your Look work For Day and Night with a few items you probably already own!

Pair a stylish made for day robe with leggings, Tunic tee, and boots for a more casual look. To transition the look for a night out pair it with pumps.


K/Lab Kimono


Enchanted Princess Cloak

Speaking of Athleisure, this is one of fave styles of dress because it allows you to dress casually in an elevated way. Add faux fur and pumps to dress up the look!

Mirabella Sweatpants

 

Beatrice Slouchy Sweatpants

Tulle Top from FreePeople 

In Your Wildest Dreams 

Last but not least, the Christmas season is of course a time to dress up in your fanciest attire! Pretty much anything goes; lace, fur, sparkles, sequins, maxis, minis and of course Velvet!
