In case you haven't noticed, I'm a wreath girl.

I love something a little unexpected in a wreath - like a Christmas wreath with fresh flowers or even just hanging a wreath somewhere other than the front door.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like I'm deep in the holiday spirit a little earlier than usual. 

You'd think with how early Thanksgiving was this year, none of us would be ready to face Christmas yet, but it's definitely had the opposite effect on me. Of course, our early heavy snowstorm here in Skaneateles may have played a role in things too, but I feel like I actually have time to enjoy prepping for the holidays, as opposed to our usual speeding through it all and basically just hanging on for dear life!

A Festive + Elegant Thanksgiving Table Setting Idea for When Your Guest List is Short

Is anyone else feeling the crunch of our oh-so-early Thanksgiving Day this year? I feel like we've only just shut the door from our last trick-or-treater and it's already time to make the turkey!

You know I love hosting small dinner parties for friends and family, and when our wedding anniversary rolled around, I knew I wanted to celebrate with a handful of friends here at Teaselwood Farm. But I didn't have any good anniversary party ideas

There's nothing like a late summer picnic to squeeze the last bit of that kicked back feel out of the season. 

But say, "Nope!" to soggy sandwiches and cardboard-ish packaged cookies. Making the best foods to bring outside isn't just better tasting - it's a huge part of the experience.
