We are Thankful for You in our LIVES
The month of thanks. As we enter into the holiday spirt let's remember to be thankful for all that life has to offer. We are grateful for each and every one of you for being not just our clients, but our family and friends. We can not wait for Lexie and Addison to come home this month and celebrate Christmas as a family. November came and went too fast. We enjoyed Thanksgiving and Friendsgivng, celebrated some birthdays including our pups Winston and Lucy, and broke out the Christmas decorations. We hope you have a safe and healthy holiday season with your loved ones.
The Holiday Salad
The salad that everyone will love. One of my favorites and extremely festive. A salad even the carnivores will love. Super simple and can be made the day prior or the day of. I never measure the ingredients out just kind of eye ball!
Ingredients
-Cranberries
-Walnuts/Pecans
-Kale
-Roasted Sweet Potatoes
-Feta/Goat Cheese
-Sliced Apples
-Quinoa
Make the quinoa and the sweet potatoes either the night before or a few hours prior to the event so they can cool off before creating the salad. Wash and pat dry kale. Throw all your toppings together and top with dressing. We used champagne dressing with a balsamic glaze, but you can use anything you'd like! Toss together and enjoy.
*Typically, if setting up for an event or making enough for leftover leave a few dressings out on the side so the salad doesn't get soggy and it gives people the option for which kind they would like and how much!
Skipping the Booze
I have been limiting my drinking since finishing 75 Hard because I realized how much better my body felt and how much more clear my mind was. With a holiday party or event every weekend between Thanksgiving and the New Year, you may want to take a couple nights off drinking but still be apart of the party, or maybe you want to avoid the questions and the peer pressure at the parties. Whatever your reasons are, my boyfriend and I have found a few alternatives to get you through the holiday season without a hangover every weekend.
Athletic Brewing
Hop Water
Both can be found at your local Total Wine or sometimes you can get it delivered through Amazon!
Holiday Gift Guide
Unsure what to purchase this holiday season? Running out of time pretty quick? Here are a few items you can not go wrong with for men and women!
You can never go wrong with some good smelling cologne or perfume. Something that no one wants to buy, but something that everyone needs. The link below will take you to a discounted site and I have provided a couple of my favorites!
The brand that everyone knows and loves, and if they don't they will! I got my whole family on Vuori and that is all I pretty much wear. They have clothing from athletics, casual day to day, to business. Free shipping on all orders over 75$ and 20% off your first order! Below are some of my favorite outerwear for men and women.
For the Chef
Whether they love to cook or bake, or anything in between, a huge holiday sale at Sur La Table that you can not go wrong with. They also offer cooking classes which I have taken on a date night, a perfect gift for a couple! They have gifts of all price ranges and for all your cooking needs. They are located in Carlsbad as well so if you are local to the area stop in and shop around.

A Note from the Agency Owner
As usual we come to the month of November to give thanks to all that have supported, promoted and have believed in our Family Insurance Agency. Without you, we would not have a business to open each and everyday. Without you, we would not be able to provide peace of mind and protection to our clients, family and friends, of their personal belongings, home and lives. Without you, we would not be able to support our church and many other non profits and schools. Thank you again for trusting our agency in your homes, business's and lives. We are grateful that you are part of our Farmers Family and our personal relationships and sphere of influence. God Bless you always and may He always grant you Protection, Prosperity and most of all Peace.
Kindly, Glenn & Amanda Domingo, your Insurance Agency for LIFE
