Baking 4 Six

Dec 2nd: December’s Habit of the month is “Self-Care”* Read on to learn how my girlfriends & I turned it into a fun “countdown to Christmas” quasi gift exchange.
I’m incredibly L-A-Z-Y when it comes to self-care. Even the basics 🙄

As I de-clutter & organize our home… I realize I have a “stash” of self-care beauty items including something I bought last December 😬 (swipe)
Building Habits is easier w/support & even better with friends and family.
Last year a couple girlfriends & I did a little 12 days of Christmas exchange. We live miles apart, so each day after opening our gifts we shared pictures in a group chat.
If you’ve been following me, you know
“I ❤️ Trader Joe’s” and while I resisted most of their holiday treats, I indulged myself in this years 12 days of Beauty.
I was hoping my friends would want to play along with me & they are 👏🏻 Since there’s 12 days & we have varied schedules, we opened Door 1 yesterday the 1st & are sharing w/each other the next day. Basically a self-care check-in. Opening a door & then sharing every other day will take is to December 24th. Fun, Easy way to connect with each other & indulge in little surprises through the month of December.
And… a bonus win-win for me; a year later, I’m finally “de-cluttering” last year’s purchase while treating myself to a little surprise each day as I work on implementing daily self-care routines into my daily habits.

*Habits by Month:
October = De-Clutter

White Russian on Holiday

A Typical White Russian is Vodka, Coffee Liquer & Heavy Cream over ice.

For a festive version substitute Peppermint Vodka or Peppermint Mocha Kahlua. You don’t need both, but why not go for it, if you happen to have them.
For a cocoa version without the Peppermint, substitute Cocoa Cream in place of the heavy cream, it’s also okay to use both.
Or be like me & mix it ALL together 😋

There are no rules here, except to kick back, relax & drink responsibly of course.
