We hope this joyous and relaxing holiday season has recharged you. Every year brings new adventures and many possibilities and opportunities. As one year winds down and the New Year approaches, I encourage you to take time to prioritize cultivating joy in your day.
Incorporating little things, like a warm cup of your favorite tea or a fun playlist, can bring life into the daily routine and make it a great day ahead!
I love to bake and enjoy sharing our granola and recipes with you all. Our cranberry orange blondies are a great treat to share with family and friends. The orange and cranberry flavor combination is a match made in heaven. This recipe can easily also convert into a breakfast blondie by cutting back on the sugar. No matter the occasion you choose, I hope it brings a little joy to your day!
