Valentine’s Day Gift Guide for Him
T-Minus 12 days until Valentine’s Day. I am following up my gift guide for her with a new guide just for the special men in your life. If you have a guy as awesome as my hunk of a husband, then this guide is for you!
Our first Valentine’s Day, Neil surprised me with 20 red heart balloons and a huge bouquet of roses along with other fun gifts. Now, years later and a zoo full of kids, he feels it’s a holiday made up to buy expensive marked up roses and chocolate. The restaurants we frequent will add a new Valentine’s menu of the same items and charge three times the price because why….oh it’s Valentine’s Day. I get it, Neil. I understand where you are coming from. However, sometimes you have to just pony up for the sake of love. Ha ha! I love Valentine’s Day! Sure, do I think you should celebrate the love you have with your significant other every day? Yes. I just think it’s great to take the time out and pause to show that special person how much they mean to you. You don’t need gifts, or fancy dinners. One year, I made Neil a booklet of handwritten coupons for him to cash in. Needless to say, I will probably never do that again, and if I do, he will know they are worthless because I don’t let him cash them in! Well, sometimes. Although, he seems to do it when I am annoyed with him on purpose. Oh, you want a back rub? Sure get to that yourself, hun. That coupon is expired….
I am poking fun at Neil, but I will also add that he is the most loyal person you will meet. He works so incredibly hard to provide for the kids and me. He took care of me for months when I was not able to care for myself, and although he’s very stubborn and a huge know-it-all, he will drop everything to be there for me if I need him. How many husband’s do you know that would totally support your crazy wife’s idea to start a fashion blog, research and buy a camera and then learn to be the photographer behind all those pictures? I am so lucky to have him in my life. Anyhoo….. Some of these items on my gift guide list I have purchased for my husband over the years and he thought they were awesome. I hope my guide gives you some ideas for the perfect V-day gift, because you just can’t go wrong with a chambong. Am I right or am I right? Check out the list below and let me know your favorite item!
.1. SugarFina The Vice Collection 8-Piece Candy Bento Box Why can’t you get a man candy? Love SugarFina
3. La Mer “The Eye Concentrate” A great eye cream for dark circles, eye puffiness and it has a nice seaweed scent perfect for men
4. Fitbit Ionic Watch LOVE!
5. Ugg Scuff Slipper So cozy!
6. SugarFina “Vodka is Always a Good Idea Candy Bento Box”
7. Chambong Set of 2 Curved Champagne Glasses In my cart as I type!
8. Crosley Radio Cruiser Deluxe Turntable This is soooo cute and also Bluetooth!
9. The Art of Shaving Morris Park Razor & Travel Kit
10. Corkcicle Whiskey Wedge We have this!
11. ‘Letters to My Love – A Paper Time Capsule’ Book What a sweet idea! Maybe better than my makeshift coupon book!
12. Tom Ford Private Blend Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum
What a fun idea for a monthly subscription for men! Great price too!
14. S’well The Wood Collection – Teakwood’ Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle How fun to use at the gym!
15. Man Crate Pit Master Crate Bought this for Neil last year and he LOVED it! You can choose between so many different options. It ships in a crate they have to pry open and can even be wrapped in duct tape as well. Very very cool!
I hope everyone has an awesome Valentine’s Day full of love and happiness! If you missed the Gift Guide For Her, click here.

This past weekend it snowed here in the foothills and now today it’s going to be 80…. Today will be spent gardening. I’ve noticed that when I’m in the yard planting flowers in my flower box and spend time out there, it really makes me happy and relaxes me. What’s something you do that makes you happy?
SAVE AND SHARE THIS TIP! Want your fresh #hydrangeas to last longer? I have the perfect tip for you! You can repeat this tip multiple times on the same bouquet to get maximum use out of your fresh blooms! Simply, cut a small portion off the bottom of the stem, dip in ALUM (found in the spice section of the grocery store) and stick in cold water. I promise you, this trick works. If you are a hydrangea nut like me, and hate spending so much on flowers, then try this out and let me know! #hydrangea #homehack #hydrangealove

SAVE AND SHARE THIS RECIPE! This festive #stpatricksday recipe is the perfect lunch/snack for everyone! Being the Irish gal that I am, I like to make fun recipes for the kids and this one is s favorite.
•puff pastry sheets
•corned beef (or you can use pastrami)
•Dijon mustard
•Swiss cheese
•clover cookie cutter
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Use your cookie cutter on the puff pastry. Add Dijon mustard, corned beef and Swiss cheese to half the clovers. Put the remaining puff pastry on top. Use a fork to put down the sides and seal the puff pastry. Then, brush egg wash over them. These will bake for approximately 20 min. Trust me…..these are super easy to make and soooo yummy! #puffpastry
I’ve always been a fan of wearing prints. This skirt is an oldie but a goodie. #jello #printedskirt
SAVE AND SHARE MY MOST VIEWED RECIPE ! This is one of my favorite and most watched recipes and for good reason! My Ham and Cheese Croissant Bake is SOOOO easy to make and perfect for brunch! This can also be frozen and eaten later! Don’t take my word for it….make it and let me know how fast it was devoured.
•4 large croissants
•12-16 oz of cubed ham
•6 oz of shredded gruyere cheese
•6 oz of shredded cheddar cheese
•1/2 cup chopped chives
•6 eggs
•1 cup half and half
•1 tsp. honey
•1 tsp. Dijon mustard
•salt and pepper
Preheat your oven to 375. In a baking dish (spray with non stick spray) add in croissants, ham, cheese and chives. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, honey, mustard and salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the bake and press down with a fork.

Gosh, I love tulip season. They’re in every vase right now 💐
Here’s to hoping this week is a less chaotic week than last 🙈 #mondaymood
Been a little MIA the last couple weeks. It’s been jam packed with root canals, kids with pneumonia and double ear infections 😑. Spent yesterday at the Drs and then hospital for chest x-rays. In between that, Neil and I got away for a weekend to Las Vegas (my first time) and it was so fun and MUCH needed. I also loved that Neil planned it all this time (usually it’s me). He had shows and restaurant reservations all taken care of. It was a nice treat! Now, I’m dealing with getting all the germs out of this house and cleaning from top to bottom. I started with our room first, love when it’s clean and pretty 🤣 #mainbedroom #primarybedroom #masterbedroom #blueandwhiteforever

I’m loving #11 and #15! We don’t really do gifts on V-day, just because, but I do always get my hubs a card. I love giving cards and feel that they are really thoughtful! I’m for sure saving this for future reference for guy’s gifts too!
xoxo, Natalie
