Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree With Blue Apron

This post is sponsored by Blue Apron

Foodblog (2 of 3)

‘Twas an unseasonably balmy winter night when all through the house

the Christmas decor was unpacked; watch out for an attic mouse!

The three year old was hungry, setting was the sun;

What should we cook for dinner that’s special and fun?

“Ah ha!” said the mommy, I know just the dish –

Blue Apron sent us our Christmas dinner wish!

And so the family prepared dinner together – Seared Cod & Garlic-Ginger Rice sent from Blue Apron’s special North Pole headquarters.

This dish was FAN-tastic!!! I loved the fish – I’ve never used rice flour before, and the Ponzu sauce on the broccoli was really, really good.

We had such a fun night stringing lights and hanging ornaments. Although surprisingly Mazen wasn’t too into the ornaments!

    Lovely post, as usual. I can’t believe I am the first person to ask this– Does your shirt say “Everyday I’m brussellin’? (I have no idea how to spell that as a verb!) LOVE IT! Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family.

        Annndddd…just because everyone probably thinks the other is for a new baby, gotta have a symmetrical fireplace!

          Haha, I thought both the stockings were probably for Mazen (probably because my three year old would definitely try to sweet talk me into that…)! I agree that it would look odd with just one stocking 🙂

        Grown ups still need stockings! It’s part of the fun of Christmas. 🙂

    I’m always curious about seasonal decor! Do you just buy seasonal shams for your current pillows or new pillows entirely? And then store them during the year? I’m not the best decorator and just stick to some streamers or banners we can hide away in a small storage bin as the holidays change. 🙂

      The red and green pillows and the joy one I bought at Target, so they covers don’t come off. The striped pillows are from our downstairs couch, so I just swapped them with our coral summery ones. I do store the three Xmas pillows in the attic.

    I disagree on grown ups not needing stockings, they’re my favorite. I am the one that stuffs them though so it’s all my favorites lol. Where did you get the tags for the stockings?

    I love all of your decorations! I really did love working PT at HomeGoods holiday season 2013 as I waited to take my RD exam. They have such cute things!

    I bough Matt and I each an, “Everyday I’m Brusslin'” tee for a fun Christmas gift. I love it, and I can’t wait to give it to him and then wear mine soon. 😉 Lovely post!

    Maybe you could use this post to talk about how you give back to the community. (Okay, you don’t have to post this, I was just being funny. :D) I love reading the comments to see what random things people are going to say sometimes. Your house looks beautiful, and I hope you have a very Merry Christmas, two stockings and all!

    Here’s an awesome tip: if you peel and freeze knobs of ginger, it’s SO much easier to grate!
