It’s finally Friday!! Does anyone else feel like time flies at the speed of light from November to December? The fact that it’s almost 2018 freaks me out a little (or a lotta) bit. In an effort to slow down and enjoy this cozy time of year, I perused the internet for some self care goodness and things that are just straight up FUN. Cinnamon rolls and adorable mugs of hot chocolate, legooooo.

The Magnolia collection at Target is even dreamier than we could have imagined. If you haven’t seen it out yet, run, don’t walk to Target. I have this pitcher, these kitchen towels, this plate, and this dinner plate to name a few.
Is there anything better than snuggling up with a mug of hot cocoa? I think not. I’ve been experimenting with recipes and this secret ingredient one is next on my list (don’t forget the marshmallows, please).
This list of Best Unknown Travel Destinations of 2017 includes a colorful little town called Malta’s Popeye’s Village that I’d like to be transported to um, immediately.
What’s hot chocolate without a festive mug? These ones are so adorable that I think I need all three!

Maple cinnamon sticky buns are a brunch dream come true. Icing on bread for breakfast? I’m so into it.

Girl I will! I’ve tried sweet potato in tacos, brownies, and cookies so why not hot chocolate?!

I’ve been looking for a solid cinnamon roll recipe for Christmas since it will just be my fiance and I for the first time. Looks like I found one!

They look to. Die. For. Let me know how they turn out!!

I just came back from a Mediterranean cruise, and Malta’s Popeye Village is as cute/stunning in real life as in the pictures! Malta is definitely worth a visit! And sweet potato in my hot chocolate totally needs to happen.

No way!! You’re totally living my travel dream. That must have been nothing short of magical!!
