Westchester’s Winter Wonderland

I love this place. We go every year. Is about a twenty five minute ride from Norwalk. You drive through and it’s so beautiful.

There’s a real Santa at the end. You put your radio on the station they suggest and listen to Christmas music as you drive through. It’s really cool.

They have a snow machine too so snow is blowing.

Picture don't do justice. If you can try to see it. It’s really perfect way to get you in the holiday spirit.

Santa’s Little Helper Holiday Liqueur

My boyfriend’s mom and step father sent me this bottle. At first I thought it was spiked eggnog but it’s actually peppermint and chocolate liqueur. We poured it over ice and it was delicious. They drink it in hot chocolate too. They got it from Twelve 33 distillery in South Carolina. Can’t wait to check it out when we go visit them.

You can order it here https://twelve33distillery.com/santas-little-helper-cream-liqueur-is-back/

Date Night!

Being older means harder firsts when dating. So whenever my boyfriend and I can experience something new it’s always a great time.

He’s never done Korean BBQ so this past weekend we did Wafu in Westport for dinner. As always this place is so delicious. We had a blast. They changed their menu a little but we got their pork belly- my favorite and it was delicious.

We have been wanting to go to hookah. A first for him. But everywhere has been closed due to Covid. Olive Tree Hookah lounge in Milford was open.

I have been here years ago. We got Orange and mint. Was delicious. We picked up liquor on the way and hung out here for hours. There was a DJ. It’s very relaxing.

I was happy I was able to show him some new places. We love that the world is getting a little easier to have fun date nights. Date nights are so important. It’s a great way to reconnect and of course have fun! When was the last fun date night you went on?

Celebrating 13

Was a great day celebrating her turning 13.

She wanted a Greys Anatomy themed party. So I had to get creative with decorations.

I bought gummy shaped bandaids. There was operation for the kids to play. I even bought syringes that are for Jell-O shots and made it for the adults.

The kids I put ice box cake, which is pudding and graham crackers in theirs.

They were a hit!!

There’s a Teenager In My House

13…..

How can that be?! I have a teenager in my house. She’s actually amazing. She’s so smart and sweet and kind and really my best friend. I would never tell her that…. To her I am Mom. But she’s so special. She’s really so special. She still always hugs me goodbye and tells me she loves me whenever she leaves the room. We are so close and she’s made being a mom so enjoyable and easy.

She’s different.

She doesn’t follow the crowd. She doesn’t give me trouble. She’s not a typical teenager girl. She loves us. She cares and is kind and honest. She loves being with us and she makes my heart so happy. I hope she never changes!

13 years ago I became a mom and she’s made the journey so easy for me.

I will always be her number 1 Fan!!!
