Snow days and Cocktails

I just had the most amazing, much needed snow weekend which extended to a snow day on Monday and a projected two hour delay on Tuesday. Won’t he do it!

My snow days consisted of copious amounts of hot chocolate, snacks , and organizing and planning in my happy planner. There also might have been the occasional Hulu and Netflix streaming happening. My snow days are not complete without the occasional cocktail as well. Its just a little cheers from me to me for you know surviving possible impending doom!

These cocktails i’m posting I actually made this holiday season, they are great if your hosting any type of get together this winter, a girls night, or just hanging at home on a snow day. I found both recipes on Pinterest and have linked them both below.

The First is an eggnog Martini. Although eggnog drinks are viewed as mostly a Christmas drink, many stores carry eggnog throughout the winter season so no worries you can still totes make this drink after Christmas. There are also tons of recipes on how to make homemade eggnog if your really trying to be an overachiever! The nutmeg and cinnamon just give me all the winter feels and the brown sugar rim so cutee.

FYI as you can see in the photo I used disposable martini glasses so clean up was quick and easy okurrrr!

The second drink I linked is a Christmas Sangria. Again you can make this white wine sangria throughout the winter into spring and super forreal forreal. The cranberries and green apples give it a tart and crisp taste and offset the dryness of a chardonnay or another dry white.

The Last Single Gal!

So my long time friend ( the Carrie Bradshaw to my Charlotte) got engaged last month and I’m all the way here for it!

She asked me to be her maid of honor which I feel like was a job I was born to do! Fun fact: I love planning parties, and habitually doing the most! I also love finding any reason to celebrate with a bottle of champagne! I have done a number of bridal and baby showers for my girlfriends and so i’m really pumped about it!

I will be in charge of planning her bridal shower, bachelorette party and a few other details which I am super excited about. I will be of course posting all about the events and the planning along the way and sharing my inspiration and findings for anyone else currently in the position of planning some of these events for an upcoming wedding!

I gifted her this super adorable bridal journal and of course some accompanying bubbly. I got the bridal journal from Barnes and nobles linked here

I got the champagne form total wine, I linked it here also

Ok, let me tell you about this champagne y’all! It is legit my go to under $10 bottle of Champagne. its a Brut CAVA., it’s so good and perfect for any occasion. It legitimately looks like you spent and ton of money because the bottle is gorgeous!
