A couple of years ago there was some freak pumpkin puree shortage, and I was so scarred by the idea that I wouldn’t have enough of my favorite fall treat that I now compulsively stock up on cans as soon as fall arrives. Of course we never use them all so I end up with a little pumpkin stockpile. Lucky for me pumpkin makes a fantastic facial mask, and with holiday parties and late nights in our future we could use a quick remedy to bring the holiday glow back to our cheeks!

Mix 2 parts pumpkin puree (fresh or canned) with 1 part full fat Greek yogurt. Add a touch of honey. Immediately spread on a clean, dry face. Relax for 20 minutes, rinse, take a peek in the mirror at your bright, glowy complexion!

Is there anything better than a roaring fireplace, a spiced cider in hand, and holiday music filling the air? I think not. Here are my top 25 holiday tunes, some make me cry, some make me dance, and some make me sing with entirely too many decibels and crazed enthusiasm! I’ll let you decide which cause what reaction.
P.S. If you only check out one song on this list make it the Kay Starr remix of Everybody’s Waiting For The Man With The Bag, you won’t be disappointed!

As you can see my newly found love of fur has spread to jewelry. How amazing would those little fur earrings look? Like itty bitty, infinitely more chic, earmuffs. I would wear them day and night, likely until the spring flowers popped up! And just think, it is cold outside, these pieces might keep you a bit warmer (the necklace would definitely feel lovely on a chilly neck), so technically you need them. At least that’s the argument I’ll be using when I put these at the top of my wish list.
