We are a little out of sync this week but I wanted to get this recipe to you sooner than later….I am hoping you still have some of your turkey left overs. I have a huge container sitting in my fridge and I am going to make this soup tomorrow…It is such a good and easy recipe and a great way to use up all of your leftovers. I like to cook the pasta and add it afterwards. Not everyone in my house likes pasta in their soup…go figure!!!! Bon Appetit!!!

Black Friday is a hard day….no one really wants to go out and shop…the crowds are intimidating but everyone loves a good sale. This Black Friday, I have partnered with Saks Off Fifth for their 50% off sale (making some of the items 90% off retail). I have found some great gifts and the prices are really a huge bonus…Over the past couple of years, I have had the best luck at Off Fifth…especially when their sales go this low!! Happy Shopping!!!

I’ve attended a few events lately and one night at a dinner in New York City, I looked around the table and noticed that I was the only one not wearing an Apple Watch. I could not believe it….I felt the entire room was wearing Apple Watches. I really loved the way that each person styled their watch. One girl told me that she has a band to match every outfit, someone else had a repurposed Louis Vuitton watch strap and there was even an Apple Watch on a chain (I love the pocket watch idea below). There were all sorts of bracelet stacks along with the watch. I started thinking..the Apple Watch is the “IT” accessory of the season. Here are some fun ways to style your own watch. As for me, I am still Apple Watch free!!!!
