✨ Something sparkly + something snacky

Published 4 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

As we get ready to welcome the new year, I wanted to share two easy little treats you can make for New Year’s Eve.

The sparkling cranberry punch is festive, refreshing, and alcohol-free. You can make most of it ahead of time, just wait to add the ginger ale until you’re ready to serve.

And the potato chip canapés are one of my favourite low-effort appetizers: crisp, salty chips topped with smoked salmon, a little creaminess, and fresh herbs. I imagine they’d be good with champagne, but I rarely drink these days, so if you try it, let me know how it goes!

I'll be ringing in the new year from the comfort of my couch, but I hope you have a wonderful time wherever you are. ✨

It's National Brunch Month! Here are two recipes to try.

Hi Reader, April is National Brunch Month, and I'll take any excuse to make a special breakfast on the weekend! I thought about sending you my pumpkin waffles, because the pecan syrup is really good, but then I thought maybe you won't be in the mood for that... I mean, it JUST became Spring. So, instead, how about some rich Nutella pancakes with a delicious mascarpone cream? I'm also including an easy-to-make granola parfait, in case you'd rather have something healthier that can also easily...
