hello new year. hello monday.

Linking up with Lisa Leonard for hello Monday and Carissa at lowercase letters for Miscellany Monday.

Hello to a new book.

I'm reading, How Luck You Are. It was recommended by Working Mother magazine and I think I'm going to love it! I just finished The Good Woman by Jane Porter. I really liked it. There is another "good" book coming out soon by the same author, The Good Daughter and I'm so excited!

Hello to getting all of my Christmas decorations put away. 

Right now my bedroom is full of crates anxiously waiting to be packed away in the attic till next year. 

Hello to meal planning. 

Do I say this every week? Yes, yes, I do. 

This week I'll be trying a crock pot recipe for chicken parm, which just happens to be one of my hubby's favorite meals.

Hello to a fun leopard print sweater that I borrowed from my sister. It's cozy and pretty! I love dressing up.

 Have a good week!
