Friend, you don’t have to do all the things this D Friend, you don’t have to do all the things this December. 🤍

In fact, it’s better if you don’t. Some of our sweetest Advent memories have come from gathering on the couch with a good book. And for my older kids, it’s been sitting down with their Bibles and really slowing down to consider Jesus. 

Here are some book ideas:

📖 For the little ones:
✨ Holy Night and Little Star: a gentle, glowing retelling for your youngest listeners
✨ Unto Us a Child Is Born: beautiful words to read slowly and savor together
✨ Shh, Baby Jesus Is Sleeping: sweet and quiet, perfect for snuggling up before bed
✨ God Gave Us Christmas: not new, but a cozy reminder of the true reason we celebrate
✨ God in My Day: not technically a Christmas book, but a darling new bedtime favorite that reminds little hearts God is with them all day long

📖 For middle and high schoolers:
🤍 Making Room: An Advent Bible Study for Teens: this is what my older kids are doing this year! Use code juicebox10 for a discount.
🤍 Consider Jesus by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: a rich, thoughtful way to fix their eyes on Christ this season

Pick one, read it slowly, and let that be enough!

Looking for more? I’ve gathered some favorites, old and new. Comment “Christmas” for the list.

Maybe it’s the cooler mornings. Maybe it’s the cal Maybe it’s the cooler mornings. Maybe it’s the calendar feeling full. Either way, fall is when the mixing bowls tend to come out at home.

There’s something about baking that slows me down in the best way. Flour on the counter, a teen measuring spices next to me, simple conversation (and high kicks apparently) while we wait on the oven. Food for the family, and filling for me too.

Here’s my go to most every fall. Lightly sweetened, cozy, and easy enough for a weekday.

🍂 Lightly Sweet Pumpkin Muffins (makes 12) adapted from Sally’s Baking Addiction recipe.

Dry:
1 3/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Wet:
1 can (15 oz) pumpkin purée
2 eggs
1/3 cup melted butter or coconut oil
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt or milk
1 tsp vanilla

Optional: a handful of chocolate chips, pecans, or a sprinkle of oats on top

1️⃣ Preheat oven to 375°F and line a muffin tin.
2️⃣ Whisk the dry ingredients in one bowl.
3️⃣ Whisk the wet ingredients in another.
4️⃣ Gently fold together until just combined. Add any extras.
5️⃣ Fill cups nearly to the top and bake 20 to 24 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.

Save this one for your next slow fall morning. What’s YOUR favorite thing to bake when the weather cools? 👇
