Last Christmas in Paris by Hazel Gaynor and Heather Webb Last Christmas in Paris  is a beautiful, slow-burn romance wrapped in the tragedy of war. It’s melancholy and hopeful all at once. As Noted By Me There’s something so intimate about reading letters between characters—it made me want to write one myself. The holidays can feel nostalgic, and this book fits that mood perfectly. It reminds me how precious connection is, even when the world is falling apart. Coming next month: Start the new year with a twisty thriller about sisters, secrets, and the ugliest kind of beauty.

(A Classic Worth Repeating) Every once in a while, a recipe from the archives deserves a little spotlight again; and this one is worth revisiting. Think: all the cozy flavors of yesterday’s feast, stacked up, crisped up, and reinvented into the most comforting day-after treat you didn’t know you needed. Here’s the beauty of it :: The waffle starts with your leftover stuffing, but it needs a little help to hold together. In a bowl, mix your stuffing with eggs until it forms a scoopable, sticky mixture. Then pack it into your waffle iron and let it cook until the outside is golden and crispy and the inside is still soft and savory. From there, pile on all your favorites:     •    A cloud of mashed potatoes     •    A drizzle (or let’s be honest… a flood) of gravy     •    Warm, tender turkey     •    And a bright spoonful of cranberry sauce right on top It’s leftovers… but make them feel brand new. It's s imple, cozy, and downright delicious Happy leftovers, friends- Jos

Jenny's Cheeseburger Bake by As Noted By Me Life lately? We are team quick dinners. I love a slow simmer moment as much as anyone, but some weeks… dinner needs to be fast, family-friendly, cozy, and something everyone actually cheers for. And this one right here? Ohhhh this one delivers. Introducing… my sweet friend Jenny's Cheeseburger Bake . A little knock-off, but in the MOST complimentary way possible, because it truly tastes just like your favorite fast food cheeseburger. You know the one. :) It has all the nostalgic comfort we crave… layered with a tiny bit of at-home pride because you made it in your own kitchen. And trust me when I say, the flavor is IDENTICAL. This is the kind of recipe that saves a Tuesday. The kind of recipe that gets eaten in full. The kind of recipe that keeps busy family life moving forward with full bellies and no complaints. Serve it with: • pickles on the side (duh) • ketchup drizzle over the top • extra yellow mustard for the team mustard people I’ll share the full recipe below and I know you'll be making this on repeat, just like me. Fast. Familiar. Fun. As Noted By Me (and Jenny) -Josie

All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker This was one of the most emotionally devastating books I’ve read in a long time but I still loved every minute of it. Chris Whitaker doesn’t just write characters, he builds lives. The mystery kept me turning pages, but it was the heart of this book that left me breathless. As Noted By Me I cried. Like, real tears. It’s a book about trauma, survival, and the hard beauty of connection. I highly recommend reading this one with a cup of tea and a quiet afternoon. Coming next month: Let’s time-travel to 1914 Paris, where love and war unfold in letters.
