holidays

Halloween is just around the corner and if your kiddo hasn't decided on a Halloween costume yet, I'm here to help! I've got a list of Amazon's top-selling kids Halloween costumes and I'm not afraid to use it!

It's nearly time to deck out your yard for Halloween and make everybody in the neighborhood do a double-take when they walk by your house! I've included some archways for your sidewalk path up to your door, some inflatables that could sit on your porch and one that can even hang from your tree! My point is there's something for everyone here, so let's get to it!

A reminder to remember this weekend. If you've lost a loved one who has sacrificed his or her life for our nation, I want you to know we are thinking of you.

Maybe we didn't eat enough noodles the last time New Year's Day rolled around, and that's what was wrong with 2020. More noodles this time! And black-eyed peas of course.

I love the extra sparkle during the coldest season of the year. And honestly, couldn't we all use a bit more sparkle in our lives after the year we've had?

You've worked hard finding that perfect gift for Christmas, but in some cases what you thought was perfect really wasn't.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas because you have a hammer, a screwdriver, and a power drill next to the recliner in the living room. Once the gifts are opened, the assembly begins, and the process could drag on for five hours or so.

It's the thought that counts. Unless the thought includes something that creates more work for mom and dad, or noise, or trash. There are some gifts that make parents cringe!

Thank you, gift gods, that there are still one or two gift ideas that still seem to be well-received by most people and come across as thoughtful, even. Ready?

Bacon solves a lot of problems as it is, and now it can be a pile of treasure at the end of a bad-gift rainbow. An unwanted scarf might turn into a year's supply of free bacon if you use the right hashtag.

Whether you're home for the Holidays, stuck inside with your roommates and away from family or just bored on Christmas day, I have a list of eight super fun games you can play with family and friends to make this Holiday season feel a little less miserable.

I guess my parents thought we needed a present-opening "appetizer." We obviously never complained. And who doesn't wanna dream of Santa in new threads?
