Instead I watched part of the Pens game and part of Dancing with the Stars (guilty pleasure and I adore it.) I&#8217;ll be honest, I feel a little empty missing\u00a0Martha and Snoop and I&#8217;m not sure when I&#8217;ll get to watch the episode (sob). Brace yourselves because it&#8217;s holiday time and while I still plan on eating well and working out, I will be indulging in some fun food items. \u00a0Oh, I will fully share that with you but buckle up because I love the holidays and all the food that goes with it. Snacks were consumed last night, I had a small plate of ham, some Spanish cheeses from a TJ&#8217;s little variety pack, and some carrots with jalapeno and artichoke dip. \u00a0I also had some bourbon because Thanksgiving week. \u00a0That will be a theme so just roll with it. <a href=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/2016\/11\/breezy-and-chilly\/ham_cheese_carrot_plate\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17309\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17309\" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/ham_cheese_carrot_plate.jpg\" alt=\"Ham, Cheese, Carrots, Dip\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/ham_cheese_carrot_plate.jpg 600w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/ham_cheese_carrot_plate-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a> Dessert was three mini dark chocolate peanut butter cups from TJ&#8217;s.

I did some chores around the house and worked on some Thanksgiving prep. \u00a0After the house was clean, it was time for lunch and I kept things easy. <a href=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/2016\/11\/breezy-and-chilly\/brat_greenbeans\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17311\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17311\" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/brat_greenbeans.jpg\" alt=\"Brat, Green beans\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/brat_greenbeans.jpg 900w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/brat_greenbeans-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/brat_greenbeans-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/brat_greenbeans-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a> Green beans and a jalapeno cheddar brat by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.continentalsausage.com\/\">Continental Sausage<\/a> (I love this sausage so much!). \u00a0I also made a smoothie but forgot to grab a pic because I was chatting with my mom.

I guess we like to play Gears during Thanksgiving week. We played for a bit and then it was time for dinner. \u00a0I heated up some leftover beef and veggie soup that I made on Sunday in the slow cooker. <a href=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/2016\/11\/breezy-and-chilly\/beef_veggie_soup\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17312\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17312\" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/beef_veggie_soup.jpg\" alt=\"Beef veggie soup\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/beef_veggie_soup.jpg 900w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/beef_veggie_soup-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/beef_veggie_soup-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/beef_veggie_soup-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a> I used leftover beef roast, potatoes, carrots, cabbage, and diced tomatoes with a beef stock base. \u00a0It made for the perfect dinner on this chilly and windy day!
