Tis the season

Tis the season to go shopping, fa la la la la la la la...

How are y'all coming on your Christmas shopping?  I am done!  Totally dunzo!  And mostly everything is all wrapped up.  Now, I am super behind on the decorating, but that's another post for another day.

If you still have some shopping to do, you should check out Rue La La. 
If you aren't familiar with Rue, it is a flash sale (2 days for each vendor typically) with really great products and great prices too.  Right now they have Tom Ford, Judith Ripka, Brooks Brothers, Waterford Linens, Destination Resorts-Snowmass & Aspen, Park Hyatt Chicago, Little Rue (kids vendors), Honora, Tommy Hilfiger Home, etc. 
It's a membership only thing, but I'm a member so I can invite you.  Another great aspect is that they have free shipping for most of the month-so great prices, plus no tax, plus free shipping means a little more cash left in your wallet at the end of the season!

Another great thing is that I just got notified that if you sign up with my invitation, you get a $10 credit!  So, if you aren't already a member, I will gladly send you an invite.

You can either give me your e-mail address in your comments, or send me an e-mail (located over on the right under "About me" and I will send you the invite.

Also, I have received a discount code for Vera Bradley (good Saturday and Sunday).  Enter FFVB20 at Checkout online and you receive 20% off (excludes sale and rolling luggage).  If you want to shop in a store, you can shoot me an e-mail or leave your contact info in comments and I will send you the e-mail so you can print out the coupon.
This isn't a paid advert, I just LOVE to pass along a deal!  Happy Shopping.

Swiss Oatmeal {Copy Cat Recipe}

I'm obsessed with Swiss Oatmeal.  I particularly love   Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal.  If you are not familiar with Swiss Oatmeal, it is a cold oatmeal cereal with fruit and nuts. I've had a similar recipe for years, but it was only similar.  It wasn't close enough for my liking.  So I finally set out into the land of Pinterest to find a recipe that was a good Copy Cat.  I found a few, combined them and came up with what I think is a very close Copy Cat Recipe of Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal. Here's what I do (note, this recipe is really just pictures, because I don't really have measurements for these things.  The photos aren't great, but it's easier if I show you what I do)... Here's the Phase 1 ingredients...   Milk Honey Yogurt (I use a vanilla greek yogurt) Oats (old fashioned, not quick...you probably could do steel cut too)    I've simplified this to where you only need a bowl and a spoon for Phase 1 becau...
