I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific. — Lily Tomlin

Worked. “Emotional Labor” is just labor, pure and simple.

Sale. Bloomingdale’s Friends & Family is on.  Love this Lucy Paris top for parties.

Mingled. Six tips for mastering first impressions at professional events.

Glam. Bardot has wonderful pieces right now. Love this coat for holiday parties!

Repaired. Have a snag in your sweater? This $3 tool will fix it right up.

Every year, we talk about holiday desserts, specifically cookies.  We post favorites recipes for cookie swaps, holiday gatherings, and late-night snacking.  Because baking is one of the best parts of the holidays.

This year, these Gingerbread Cupcakes caught my eye.  (But they’re decorated with cookies, so it still counts!)  I’m also going with a classic, Peanut Butter Blossoms.

Have a cookie recipe that you love or one you’re planning to try?  Drop it in the comments.
