Food Themed Christmas Tree: My Themed Tree

One of my favorite things this holiday season has been my food themed Christmas tree. Growing up, my family always had a sentimental Christmas tree with a mix and match of ornaments that my brother and I made and that my parents collected over the years. I’d always been drawn to themed Christmas trees but didn’t know what theme I’d want to commit to. A few years back though it came to me; I’m a foodie and loved the idea of having a food themed Christmas tree. And so my holiday tradition began.

How I Upgraded My Bed Without Buying a New Mattress

Time to come clean: I’m a hot sleeper. Still even with being someone that was regularly waking up sweaty (#yikes), I was sleeping on jersey sheets. On top of regularly feeling overheated, I found myself also debating whether or not to purchase a new mattress. Ultimately, I decided to make some less expensive choices which meant I upgraded my bed without buying a new mattress.

Following discourse and analysis around the Great Resignation has been interesting especially seeing it play out among friends and even at the company I work for. The combination of the labor shortage and pandemic has led to lots of open positions and opportunities to seek out higher paying roles for some. As a disclaimer: things vary by industry, position, and geographic region so be sure to do further research with all advice.
