In this week's Favorite Things I have lots of wreaths and garland options for decorating your home inside and out. I've got recipes that are perfect as we head into the Christmas season and my latest favorite things (including a new Christmas movie I really liked). I'm sharing some women's boots and shoes that are perfect for winter too.

Stuff I Love
What I'm Watching - All the Christmas movies! I really liked A Boy Called Christmas on Netflix. I also really enjoyed Nantucket Noel and Time For Them To Come Home For Christmas on the Hallmark Channel.
What I'm Reading - I'm reading The Sisters Sweet by Elizabeth Weiss. It's about a vaudeville act in the early 20's and flashes back to their parent's story too. So far, I'm liking this book. I also just added The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave to my to-be-read list before they release the tv series starring Julia Roberts.
What I'm Listening To - I've been listening to new album The Future by Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats in between all the Christmas music.
What I'm Loving - I've been dealing with low phosphorous and some other low mineral levels. I'm loving Vital Proteins Beef Liver Capsules to help me get those levels up without having to cook and eat liver. I know some people love it, but I'm not one of those people.
What I Want - I order myself a Recollections Planner every year. This is where I plan my recipes for each month and then add my tasks and appointments each week. It helps me to have a physical place to look at all of this. Plus, they're on sale right now!

My Favorite Things From Around The Web
I love these mixing bowls, this baking set and this cake stand from the Pioneer Woman line. They are great for all the holiday baking and the prices are amazing.
I'm a huge fan of the KitchenAid hand mixer my parents got me. It is perfect for mixing pancakes, frosting and baking. It is an amazing gift for under $30!
I've been looking at this really pretty 20 piece baking set and they've marked it down to $20. I think I'm going to have to order it!
It's pie baking season and I highly recommend having a reusable pastry mat. It makes clean up so easy!
I love all the holiday gift sets and mini sets this time of year. It's a great gift and a great way to try new products. I've been looking at this Ilia gift set. I've been wanting to try their clean products. I also saw this Makeup Eraser set, this Burt's Bees set and Scunci scrunchies pack.
Target has some really pretty tins for gifting baked goods this season. This berries tin, tree tin and feliz navidad tin are all really cute!
Target keeps adding really fun baking stuff. This batter bowl is lovely and so are these plaid matching oven mitts and apron.
