The Best Croissant French Toast Recipe You Must Try ASAP!

Croissants are my kryptonite.  I love the fresh, I love them the next day, I love them as sandwiches, I love them stuffed with Nutella, ham & cheese, you name it- I love it.   There's just something about the buttery, flakiness that just gets me every time.  

Now, it's time to croissants to another level- french toast.

Hot Cocoa Popcorn Recipe (Best Treat For a Movie Night In)

This hot cocoa popcorn is seriously the best.  It pairs perfectly with a movie night in and cuddling with those who are dearest in your heart!  

It's not a secret around here that movies are our jam.  I tend to call myself a movie hoarder or a movie junkie or a movie buff- depending on which way the wind blows.  My daughter is also a lover of movies and we love any opportunity to make some popcorn, wrap up in blankets and watch a movie together.  It's a great way to decompress and just spend some time together- just mother and daughter time.  

One of our favorite things is making various popcorn recipes- like this one for Hot Cocoa Popcorn.

I have made several vows to get out more and enjoy more of what Arizona has to offer and become more active.  One of the best things about living in this state is the weather and how easy it is to take advantage of what there is to offer.  

Since Christmas is nearly here and the weather is still perfect (low 70s!), what better time to get out and enjoy Christmas lights and events!  My sister, Em and I recently went to Glendale Glitters and it was perfect!
