Cranberry Sauce Swirl Coffee Cake

Let's pretend that Thanksgiving isn't a week away and that we've made menu plans and picked up a turkey. Forget all that. Let's bypass straight to the weekend after Thanksgiving when we get to eat leftover turkey sandwiches, listen to Christmas music (officially), deck the halls, and start holiday baking! This Cranberry Sauce Swirl Coffee Cake is a great use of leftovers and perfect for serving lingering Thanksgiving guests over coffee. 

Thirsty Thursday | Cranberry Shrub

Drinks are always over looked on Thanksgiving. Sure someone always brings wine and maybe there's a few beers in the fridge; But what about those adults who don;t want to imbibe? They get stuck drinking water or too-sweet-to-stand-up-to-turkey-cider. Let's change that this year, this year let's shrub, Cranberry Shrub.  

Barley, Apple, Feta, and Pomegranate Salad

      

This Barley, Apple, Feta and Pomegranate Salad is the epitome of a Mama's lunch. It can be thrnow together quickly, keeps well for a good long while, and can be eaten straight from fridge or at room temperature - you know, in case you get pulled away from it by a work phone call or a crying toddler. 

Ok, so maybe you're not a Mama - but you are a busy working gal or guy and having a healthy lunch during the work week is a challenge. This Barley, Apple, Feta, and Pomegranate salad is for you too.
