Zucchini has easily become a favorite in this house hold! We put it in everything we can! I just love it. I wanted to share with you my moms zucchini bread recipe! This is a great Breakfast bread. It tastes great just by itself or warmed up with a little butter on top!

You will need ...

OUR FIRST REAL CHRISTMAS TREE

The past couple years we have used a fake tree and every year i have wanted to get a real tree and finally this year we did! I mentioned before our cottage is extremely tiny! With many doors and big windows, this place has been a challenge to decorate ! I'm constantly moving things around to make it more functional for us, So The fact that we were able to fit a Christmas Tree in here still baffles me ! But some how we did it and we love it!

WINTER DECOR

I thought it would be fun to do a room tour of our little cottage and the holiday decorations i put up this year! This is my wintery rustic room and the room we will be putting the christmas tree =) I had to go pretty simple since our place is so so small, but here is the dinning room! I'll put up more pictures after we get the tree!

 







Happy decorating! Leave a comment and link your decoration posts below i would love to see them!
