Show your appreciation for that special someone with a little help from Zoës Kitchen and this free printable “Seasonings Greetings” from mamachallenge.com. #delivergoodness

Christmas came quick this year (as it seems to do the older you get), so are working to get your last gifts together? Don’t worry you can still do something thoughtful, but still doesn’t take much time or money to put it together? 


For me there are many people that make my world happen. From the mail man, the UPS guy, the dry cleaning lady and the gal at the gym, these people all help me make it through any given day. And although I try to say thank you, sometimes a thank you in the from of a small token of appreciation goes a lot farther. 

SeasonsGreetingsZoes

This holiday I was excited to partner with one of my favorite new restaurants, Zoës Kitchen to share how to #delivergoodness the season for their “Selfless Giving” campaign. By coupling their seasoning mix appropriate called “Spice of Life,” a $25 gift card Zoës Kitchen gift card along with this free printable from mamachallenge I had an easy gift that said “THANK YOU!” and Season(ings) Greetings! 

zoes-tag

Known for healthy and innovative menu items for every palate, Zoës Kitchen, is one of our favorite family g0-tos. And with 165 locations in 14 states (including several in the Dallas/Fort Worth area), it’s makes it easy for anyone to find a location nearby.  

Zoes-Family-Meals3-MamaChallenge

While you could make your own seasoning mix for this holiday homemade gift, Zoës Kitchen’s “Spice of Life” can make everything taste that much better. I often use this on a quick way to season veggies or roast a chicken and the kids keep coming back for more. Plus – it’s already bottled and ready for giving when you pick it up at Zoës Kitchen.

zoes-logo

For me, I wanted to #delivergoodness to those people who make a big difference in my life and thank you just doesn’t begin to say how much I appreciate them. Here’s how I shared my three of my “Seasonings Greetings” gifts: 

Coworker: Working with this coworker for 10 years, she’s not just someone I work with, she’s a friend that has shared birthdays, deaths, births, weddings and more. However, on a daily basis, she’s the one that reminds me when I forgot that action item, prints off an extra agenda when I’m running late, and continues to make me look good, when you have one of “those” mornings. 

Neighbor: Oh, this neighbor is also one of my best friends, but she was a neighbor first. She always there to borrow the sugar from, watch the kids in a last-minute pickle, and opens her home for the holidays. I can only aspire to be the hostess with the mostess like her! 

School Secretary: I wonder if anyone talks to their school secretary as much as I do. But for every time I need to pick up the kids early, drop them off late or ask them what I missed in the school newsletter, she always answers the phone with a smile. And just think, I bet I’m not the only one. With more than 600 kids at our scho0l, I bet she does the same thing for a lot of other parents. 

Here’s the printable available to be printed in small 3.5 X 5 in. size (4 per page), 9 per page, or you can “save as” to download in your own smaller size to be printed with your Seasonings Greetings gift.

🚨 ACT NOW: Keep Public $$$ in Public Schools! 🚨

Click Here (takes less than one minute): 
https://www.txpta.org/take-action

Tomorrow, March 11, the Texas House Committee on Public Education will hear HB 3. Let’s make it clear: Public money demands public accountability!

Texans have rejected vouchers since 1957—yet lawmakers are once again pushing them through with SB 2 and HB 3.

💰 Vouchers drain public school resources.
📉 They don’t improve student achievement.
❌ They aren’t about "parent choice"—private schools choose their students.
🏫 Texas parents already have school choice.

Governor Abbott is making vouchers a priority, but Texans are pushing back. Lawmakers are feeling the heat from voters who refuse to let public schools be undermined.

📲 Take 1 minute to make your voice heard NOW!

📷Jackson and Taylor are 2 of the 5.5 million reasons why Texas must keep public dollars in public schools. I was a product of public schools and had an amazing experience in a rural community with some of the best teachers. Change needs to happen, but taking away resources like these from schools is not especially when they ste already underfunded and our teachers’ morale is at an all time low. Communities work better together not when you separate them further apart.

🌲 Coca Cola Classic Christmas - Choctaw Stadium in Arlington  
🗓️ Now through Dec. 29

Growing up @cocacola made the holidays magic, so when Coca Cola Classic rolled down the road, we had to go peek! Partnering with @enchantchristmas, the experience is part lights, part photo opps and for my kids mostly FOOD and overall a lot of fun - all washed down with (of course, a Coca Cola!) 

What was also great was a little walk through memory lane with Coke Christmas moments throughout the years - cue the polar bears and 18 wheeler!

Experience: 
🎅Market Square (definitely hit up the t-shirts - reading each one is half the fun)
🎅 Snow Tubing (always our favorite)Ice Skating (truth: we don’t skate, but it’s perfect people watching) 
🎅 Interactive Light up Dance Floor
🎅 @cinemark Theatre with holiday movies 
🎅 Coca-Cola Lounge - 21+ Cocktail experience (looked great to go with the girls)
🎅 Santa Landing

And of course, the Eatery! Eyes (and mouths) got big here with featured food from State Fair of Tex winners like The Drowning Tacos (SO GOOD we then ordered the Birria Tacos, too all cooked onsite and with all the sauce!) 

It’s the real thing!

🎄 Prairie Lights, Lynn Creek Park in Grand Prairie 
🗓️ Now through Dec. 31 (NYE) at 6 pm 

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without @prairielights- with a packed car with blankets, Santa hats, hot cocoa and coffee, and blasting holiday music while we sing them even louder.  

A stunning two-mile drive through light park complete with a midway stop - The Holiday Village with carnival rides, amazing bites (corndogs, funnel cakes and more, oh my!) And this year we were surprised with a new light tunnel, reimagined walk-through forest and new displays, great photo opps, gifts, visit with Santa, a lighted strollable forest.  It’s perfectly timed for food, fun and a little time on foot! 

PRO TIP: Go early, get tickets in advance and spring for the fast pass on the weekends and prime holiday times. And enjoy it and don’t try to rush it - enjoy it! That includes entry and the experience (so bathroom before you go, but thankfully there’s one at The Holiday Village and you get the corn dog.)

Named after Bangkok’s legendary road of entertainment of all kinds (Sukhumvit Soi 11), it seems fitting this newly imagined destination would find its home in Arlington’s Entertainment District. Anchoring the NEW @loewsarlington, @soycowboytx (also from @bbbutchers / @berghospitality) recently swung open the curtain this summer with an opening that made heads turn at every corner of this 12,000 sq. ft. of sexy space - with 3 unique bars, patio, viewable kitchen and dining room. 

To call it a “Pan Asian restaurant” doesn’t do it justice with its rich menu of fresh sushi, dim sum, caviar, truffle, lobster, waygu (all things you don’t find in the home of the margarita machine and ballpark nachos.) And if you’re looking for entertainment, just take a peek into the expansive kitchen and watch your rolls or omakase be made. The cocktail menu is just as extravagant with everything from mezcal to Japanese whisky, you’re eyes will be just as happy as your lips upon your first sip. 

While we experienced live music, fashion show and more as part of the opening, the cool smoke installation and the people-watching is definitely just part of the menu at Soy Cowboy you’ll have to explore. 

Food Nerd Note: SoyCowboy is on the upcoming @dfwrestaurantweek menu for just $39, so it’s a steal to take your own trip on a budget. (Make your reservation.)
