Catching up with the Kelnhofers-125

This week on Catching up with the Kelnhofers, we’re keeping it short and sweet! It’s a new year and we’re looking forward to a fresh start.

The week between Christmas and New Years is a blur, I think we can all agree on that! But I do love the week leading up to New Years and taking a look back at the past year (and byeeee 2021)

Before we dive in to the newsletter, I thought I’d share some content highlights of the past year:

98 new Blog Posts
52 new Love Lists
42 new Meal Plans – this is a series we started this past year!
43 new recipe videos created + shared (they’re on the recipe blog post and on the SweetPhi Youtube!)
Note: all of this wouldn’t be possible without your amazing engagement and support and the help of the SweetPhi team big big thank you to them!

This is what my holiday break looked like:

Line 1: lots of cookie baking and eating/enjoying
Line 2: Christmas eve, and leaving cookies for santa and carrots/apple for the reindeer
Line 3: Christmas morning, Santa came and the kids made the holiday so magical!
Line 4: More holiday break fun

5 Ingredient tomato and white bean soup – made with super easy ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.
Butter and tomato poached white fish – easy, healthy and delicious. Perfect for the new year!

I swear by this lotion. My hands get so dry in the winter; they literally crack open and bleed. It’s awful. The only hand cream I’ve found that works, is this (it’s only $3!)!
