Getting Ready for the Holidays

The holidays are right around the corner, and my kitchen is already in full swing with recipe testing, decorating, and a whole lot of cozy chaos. This time of year is my absolute favorite, when the house smells like cinnamon, there’s always something baking in the oven, and the to-do list somehow grows faster than I can cross things off.

Between filming new holiday recipes, creating easy entertaining ideas, and pulling together the perfect gifts for friends and family, my days are packed—but in the best way. I’m testing everything from festive cocktails and air fryer appetizers to hearty soups and make-ahead holiday desserts that save time when guests arrive.

My goal this season is to keep things simple, cozy, and full of flavor. Think approachable holiday recipes, thoughtful hosting tips, and little ways to make your home feel warm without the stress. From slow mornings with a mug of apple cider to late-night wrapping sessions by the tree, I’m soaking up every bit of this festive season.

If you’re also deep in holiday prep, stay tuned for new recipes, easy entertaining ideas, and my favorite seasonal finds. Whether you’re planning Thanksgiving dinner, hosting a Christmas party, or just craving a cozy night in, I’ve got plenty of inspiration coming your way to make your holidays feel deliciously effortless. Can't wait to share the holidays with you! Thanks for being here. :)
