On the List

Time for Tea / Oil on Canvas / Gina Brown

I’m writing this edition of On the List on our first snowy afternoon of 2025. The pediatric practice that I work at closed early since we don’t want our littles out in the weather. For those of you not living in the South, you’re probably not aware of the fact that no one can seem to drive when the weather is even slightly dicey out.

Before we get into this week’s list of picks, I thought I’d give a sneak peek into what we have coming to the blog next week. There will be two author Q&As, both with authors that I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing before, and I can’t wait for you to get an inside look at their new books!

Evelyn Henson just released her collaboration with Chappy Wrap, and the Safari Blanket and Boykin Blanket in the Classic size are my favorites from the collaboration.

Need a good soup recipe to get your 2025 started right? Try out this One Pot Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Soup. (Damn Delicious)

If you love florals as much as I do (and like keeping your iced tea cold all day long) the Enchanted Rose cup from Brumate is a must.

It’s time to pre-order the first book in author Kristen Bird’s new series, A Beauty Queens Guide to Murder and Mayhem.

I adore polka dot dresses, and this Dotted Button Godet Midi Dress (Loft) can be worn from fall to spring.

You’ll want to eat this Chocolate Cake (Curly Girl Kitchen) with a spoon.

Spend a week on a super yacht (Jenny Cipoletti) from the comfort of your couch.

The Perfect Evelyn from Sarah Flint is giving me all the feels!
