Thanksgiving is around the corner!

Hello, my lovelies!

We are entering November, which means time to start thinking about our Thanksgiving day menus. I have some of my Thanksgiving family favorites featured below. The new post up on the blog this week is my Sweet Potato Casserole which my family has been making for as long as I can remember. What's Thanksgiving without those mini marshmallows, am I right?

Printables Shop Update: I have been posting new listings and even more are to come! Scroll down to see what's new. Plus this entire month is a Holiday sale, everything in the shop is 10% off! The sale ends December 1st so don't wait.

Talk to you soon!



I have to admit this is practically dessert, but it's ok if you eat it only on special occaisions right? This sweet potato casserole is definitely a Thanksgiving day tradition.

I go over my favorite We R Memory Keepers items, what I think are essential for paper crafters like me!


Thanksgiving here we come!

These vegan stuffed mushrooms have a delicious italian flavor and are one of the most popular recipes on my blog!

Stuffing is an essential Thanksgiving recipe! This simple recipe has been passed down in my family and it can be easily modified to be gluten free or vegan!

This sweet fancy plaited challah bread is sure to impress anyone at the table.

Instead of pumpkin pie, make these hand pies instead. Easy to grab, even easier to eat!

More Recipes:

Ratatouille
Apple Crumble Tart
Apple Hand Pies (can be made vegan)
Cranberry Orange Mocktail
Vegan British Treacle Tart
Mushroom Lentil Soup
Golden Milk


Here are my favorite We R Memory Keepers products! Plus one bonus item that I can't wait to use.
