Whew! What a busy week we’ve had here in the Hood household! Holidays are fun but boy are they exhausting! So I created this delicious Holiday Sangria Punch Mocktail for the whole family, kids included. to sit back, relax, and enjoy! 
I also teamed up with one of my favorite clothing lines {and the perfect “Mom wear”} prAna this week to share a classic and comfy outfit ideal for relaxing in on a cold winter night. Scroll down for a discount code for www.prana.com for you to get 15% off too!

prAna is that something. 
Their mission is to inspire healthy, active, and free-spirited living. 
prAna loves to combine classic & urban style with sustainable materials, and they are always mindful of where and how their creations are made. 
 prAna is an ancient Sanskrit word for breath, life, and vitality of the spirit. They started out in 1992 making clothing that worked well for climbing and yoga. prAna creates versatile, stylish, and sustainable clothing and accessories that you can wear during every activity, every adventure, every day.

 I have a couple pairs of pants from prAna but my favorites are the Kara Jeans. 
Don’t you just love this fun Grapevine color?

I also have the Kayla Jean {pictured above} in Cargo Green. These are great because they are available in a short inseam for me and have a nice stretchy comfort feel just like the Kara Jeans! 
This super soft Stacia Sweater in the Winter color is perfect for the holiday season since it goes with everything and looks classic and stylish all at once!

Holiday Sangria Punch Mocktail

Makes 4 drinks

Ingredients

  • 1 25 oz bottle of sparkling apple cranberry juice
  • ice
  • 1/2 cup fresh cranberries
  • 1 green apple thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Fill four glasses half way with ice.
  • Add a few thin slices of apple and a scoop of fresh cranberries.
  • Fill with sparkling apple cranberry juice.
  • Add a straw and serve.

Notes

You can substitute cranberry juice and sparkling white grape or apple juice.
Or make it an adult drink by adding sparkling wine!
 This drink only requires three ingredients and couldn’t be more simple.
But it is absolutely gorgeous and completely delicious! 
 For this sangria inspired drink I decided to use two popular winter fruits: apples and cranberries. 
Even better, they are Christmas colors!
 Originally I was going to use sparkling apple juice and add cranberry juice but I got lucky and found sparkling apple cranberry juice at the store! 
Add a hand full of ice to each glass.
 Thinly slice {do not peel}a tart green apple. 
 Now add a few slices of apple and a scoop or two of fresh cranberries to the glasses.
 Fill the glasses with the sparkling apple cranberry juice,
 How pretty are these? 
 This is a festive drink the whole family can enjoy!
 Add a straw and serve! 
Nothing better than relaxing with a refreshing drink while watching a Christmas movie!
I love this time of year!
 I was sent a free prAna outfit to review from Iblog and prAna sustainable clothing. 
All opinions are 100% my own.

Final Florida lunch with my Dad at a local hotspot: @stewbyseafoodshanty on Okaloosa Island. They have multiple locations but this one is by far my favorite. New, clean, beautiful scenery, and lots of space inside and outside.
🐟🐠🎣
I could eat here every day. Their seafood is the BEST. For lunch we tried their grilled grouper sandwich and seafood combo plate with amberjack, grilled shrimp, fried oysters, and all the sides and sauces to go with it (check out those scrumptious cheese grits)! 
🐟🐠🎣
Next door they have a seafood market, gift shop, and new steamer restaurant with steam buckets of shrimp, crab, and flounder with all the fixins. ⬅️ I know what I am ordering next time! Their motto: local fish at local prices. Check them out and thank me later.

🦀 Check out our lunch yesterday at my parents favorite local spot, @soiasianbistro . We tried a variety of items off of their massive updated menu.
🍣 The sushi was by far the best thing we ordered. Another must try is the Shiso Mono appetizer, which is tempura fried Japanese basil leaves stuffed with spiced tuna. 
🍤 We also ordered cucumber salad, pork ramen, udon noodles, and chicken katsu curry. All were tasty and big enough to share with the sushi appetizer. 
🍜 I recommend checking out Soi Bistro if you are in town and enjoy fresh seafood and Asian dishes like we do. But save it for a date night or special occasion b/c their price point was pretty high for a casual meal. ❤
