Today I thought we would set the table for Thanksgiving. Some must haves for a family filled week.

16 mini York Peppermint Patties

Directions

1. Oil an 8-inch square pan. Prepare the brownie batter according to the package directions.
2. Spread half the batter in the prepared pan. Top with the peppermint patties, leaving an even border of batter all around the edges of the pan.
3. Spread the remaining batter on top and bake according to the package directions. Let cool, then cut into 16 squares.

Structurally Sound

Everyone needs a sturdy top handle bag to have as a grab and go closet staple. No matter the shape or size, this silhouette is no nonsense bag that instantly pulls together any look.

Target, Who What Wear Striped Top Handle Bag, $29

What did I tell ya? Perfect.

Amazon, Aldo Orange Top Handle Bag, $39

Does the orange terrify you? Pair it with a navy scarf tie on to tone it down.

Asos, Leather Top Handle Bag, $48

Really can't beat this price for such a ladylike blush bag.

Amazon, MG Collection Structured Satchel Doctors Bag, $49

I love this bag because it's a classic. I love this bag more because it's two toned. Turn it to the side and, bam!

A simple and structured bag is great for Monday through Friday. You can throw everything in and no one will know.
