For a second there, I didn’t think it was going to happen! Letting the husbands into the annual meeting of the Girls That Eat club was definitely a controversial decision — it even had to go to a vote! 😅

But I have to admit… the guys brought a whole new level of fun to our Holiday Edition night. Thank you to all the husbands for making it extra special! My face still hurts from laughing, and my belly definitely still hurts from all the incredible food.

A special shout-out to Dasha ( Tebet Daria ) for the gorgeous (and ridiculously delicious) cake — you were missed so much, and we can’t wait to see you next month! 💛✨

For our one-year anniversary of officially becoming husband and wife, we decided to celebrate at National Harbor. And since Sofia couldn’t make it to the courthouse last year, she refused to be left out again. This time she basically handed us her own itinerary and said, “I’m coming.” End of discussion.

One of our favorite things to do together is definitely fine dining—nothing says love like judging food as a team. So we decided to give Grace’s Mandarin another try.

Service was amazing.
Drinks were flawless.
Sushi was underwhelming. Either our taste buds have changed or we’ve officially become sushi snobs thanks to our neighborhood spots. This round the sushi gave serious “you could’ve skipped me” energy.

But the whole fried fish was incredible. We demolished it so completely the waiter probably thought we hadn’t been fed all day. The only survivors were a couple of bones.

The décor is gorgeous, the ambiance is stunning, and the place is definitely worth visiting—just maybe let the sushi live its own life and order literally anything else.

The black caviar form Quince is actually amazing! Must have for new years!

Nathan’s New Favorite Toy 🦀✨
Black Friday Amazon Find!

I had to share this because Nathan is obsessed! We grabbed this adorable crawling crab toy on the Amazon Black Friday sale and it’s already a total win. It lights up, plays music, and crawls away so fast — perfect for keeping him entertained (and giving mama a minute to sip her coffee 😂).

It’s great for tummy time, crawling practice, or honestly just letting them chase it around! If you need a fun little gift or a boredom-buster, this one is so worth it — and it’s on sale today! 🙌

Linking it on LTK for you!

👕 Cozy and Versatile Base Layer: The Jmierr Ribbed Long Sleeve
Layering season is officially here, and this ribbed long-sleeve shirt from Jmierr is the perfect staple! It’s comfortable, has great texture, and works seamlessly as a base layer for so many outfits.
I love how easily it transitions from a simple, clean look on its own (swipe to see!) to a warm, layered look with my favorite vest for those chillier days.
✨ Why I love it:
• Great Texture: The ribbing adds a subtle visual interest compared to a plain shirt.
• Perfect Fit: Snug but comfortable—ideal for layering without bulk.
• Versatile Color: This deep blue/grey tone pairs well with almost any color pant or jacket.
• Dressed Up or Casual: Looks sharp with black jeans for a casual weekend or can be worn under a blazer for a business-casual vibe.

• Shirt: Jmierr Men's Ribbed Long-Sleeve Shirt (Navy/Blue)
• Layering Piece: Puffer Vest (Similar linked)

My Husband in His New Favorite Tracksuit 👀🔥

Okay, I had to share this because my husband put on this two-piece sweat tracksuit and… wow. I did not expect a simple lounge set to look this good. It’s soft, clean, and somehow makes him look like he actually tried — even though it’s literally sweats.

The fabric is super cozy on the inside, the joggers have a comfy waistband that doesn’t bunch, and the top fits him in that relaxed-but-still-put-together way I love. He’s already claimed it as his new weekend uniform. 😅

Why he loves it:
✔️ Soft and warm without being too heavy
✔️ Perfect for errands, lounging, travel — all of it
✔️ Joggers fit great and don’t sag
✔️ Comes in tons of colors (and yes, he wants more)

Sizing: He’s in his normal size and it fits perfectly — relaxed but not baggy.

✨ Cozy Husband Fit Check ✨

I cannot get over how good this JMIERR shawl-collar cardigan looks on him 🫶
The cable-knit texture + deep wine color = holiday perfection. It’s thick, soft, and has that relaxed-but-put-together vibe I love on men.

Paired it with a simple white tee, black jeans, and loafers — effortless, clean, and so flattering. This is the kind of cardigan that works for Thanksgiving dinner, date night at home, or casual weekends but still looks elevated.

Sizing: True to size
Color: Wine red
Fit: Structured but comfy, not bulky
Why we love it: Warm, stylish, and makes any guy look instantly more polished.

I’ll link it below in my LTK! 💫
