I am a 5 year old trapped in a 35 year olds body… per my birthday party.
I turned 35 on the 28th and had an Animal Crossing Themed birthday haha. Thank you Levi, Lo and Amazon. The decorations were so cute, and they had even streamed the ACNH birthday song on youtube for when I walked inside. It was a Cozy Gamers birthday dream. IYKYK.
Find all the Amazon ACNH Decor here!
Now that Thanksgiving and my Birthday has passed, we get into the busy season. Holiday’s! Christmas / Holiday parties, travel plans, family, and the the thought of taking time for ourselves goes out the door… and then is buried in snow. I vowed to myself that it was not going to be like that this year, even if it meant saying NO more.
One of the things that used to get thrown to the wayside during the holidays was my eating habits and workout routines. I would get so busy that I would make excuses as to why I could not workout or why I did not meal prep and then when I ate food I normally did not indulge in I would beat myself up over that, which lead to forcing a workout in when I probably should have let my mind rest from the stress of the holiday season.
This year is different. No more obsessing over food, no more missing workouts or forcing them when I don’t feel good, no more saying yes to things I do not want to do which leads to putting myself care last. 35 is time to shine.
Why am I bringing this up you ask? Because today I was busy AF running errands, Christmas shopping and trying to find outfits for a trip I have planned so my meal prep this week is boring, and it took 5 minutes, but I DID IT ANYWAYS and I know having this prepared ahead of time is going to be super impactful for the busy week ahead. No excuses.
2 bags of Green beans and Red Potatoes + 1 lb of Ground Chicken = 4 Lunches for the week. 5-10ish minutes to prep and clean up (By throwing all the shit in the dish washer)
Being fast and efficient during the holidays means more time to enjoy the Holiday activities! Like the Luminaria Light Show at Thanksgiving Point.
It has an amazing light show, and lots of Christmas cheer as you walk through Ashton Gardens and it is lit with tons of lights! They even have a a Tulip Field Light section which was so beautiful. They have General Admission and VIP options which allows you to book your own snow globe to stay warm. If you are in the area this holiday season, it is a must see and great date night adventure. BUNDLE UP! It was cold.
Now what you are really here for, my holiday gift guide recommendations!
Okay, so these are going to be done in themes so each post I have now until Christmas will have a gift guide section. This weeks gift guide:

Those are just some of my favorite things that I would love or gift to any cozy gamer I know. I am not affiliated with any of these products or sites, just my personal favs.
The beanie is also a small business so if you like that, they have a lot more creators on the site that have such cute things!
