Cranberry Orange Bars...

Happy Monday! How excited are you for Thanksgiving? I'm stoked, and even more excited for Christmas. This past weekend set the "holiday" tone for me. I work at a restaurant at the airport and we were crazy busy, everyone going to see their families put me in the holiday spirit.

Just as promised another quick recipe before Turkey Day. These are a snap to put together, you can use a stand mixer or by hand if you choose. Today I had no choice but to make them by hand because I was at Boo's house, and his kitchen is lacking all the equipment that I'm used to. Its nice to actually get your hands in there and feel the product coming together.

This recipe will carry you through the rest of the holiday season as well, great to bring along to a party. I shared these with coworkers and received many compliments. Perfectly tart with sweet, buttery crumbly topping. These might make it into my annual cookie tins.

Citrus Herb Roasted Chicken and Blogging...

My morning usually begins with reading my favorite blogs and today was no exception, except I felt a little discouragement from one. The question she asked, "are you reading blogs less?". I'm still new to the blogging world and I love it, I love to share stories, pictures, recipes, DIY, I love it all. I wish I had more time to write posts, but unfortunately I do not. Everything I've done has been a learning process, from taking an OK picture to writing. I'm not the best but hope to one day be a blogger that is followed, I love sharing with you. To the people that follow me, THANK YOU! I hope that you enjoy what I have to say and are making a good meal or a fun DIY. So I will keep on keeping on, BOOM!

Now onto some good food...

Orange, lemon, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and olive oil; whats not to love? I first came across this recipe on Pinterest, via HERE. I've made it a few times and always go back to it, Liam loves it so much. I love the crispy skin and bright rich flavors. Its a go to recipe and could easily be used for entertaining, freezes well if you have leftovers, and is put together in a snap!
