Seafood Chowder, Seasonal Decor, Sandra Sallin and More

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We sure did. Let’s join Mary Ann and Annie, and talk about Seafood Chowder, Seasonal Decor, Sandra Sallin, and More.

NINE AND SIXTEEN ON INSTAGRAM

One of my favorite Instagram accounts Nine and Sixteen by Tricia Foley really shines at Christmas. I love Tricia’s charming traditional holiday decor.

OUTFIT OF THE WEEK

This darling shirt from Free People would be great with this Anthropologie Tulle skirt or just as fun with jeans for a night of holiday shopping. Inexpensive rhinestone earrings from Amazon, and my favorite Emma boots keep it comfy. No need to overspend on a Whiting and Davis clutch. You can find several on Ebay here.

I originally picked out the great plaid shirt from J Crew, so here is that version as well.

SHOP THE OUTFIT OF THE WEEK

THE SPRUCE EATS CRAB & SHRIMP BISQUE

I have been making a variation of this recipe for years. I sometimes add a cup of corn and/ or pepper to the mix and I substitute half and half or yogurt for the heavy cream to make this Crab & Shrimp bisque a little healthier.

SANDRA SALLIN ON YOUTUBE

Sandra has a great new youtube video on unusual gifts that you might enjoy. I know I did!

BLACK FRIDAY SALES

If you haven’t already shopped yourself to death, you might enjoy these sales.

J CREW 50% OFF + ADDITIONAL 10%

I think this sale is one of the best out there. I picked up some cashmere items for my family. They have some great quilted items as well included in the sale, and I picked up some cute things for Summer as well.

JOHNNY WAS 25% OFF SITEWIDE

WILLIAMS SONOMA BLACK FRIDAY WEEKEND DEALS

All the men in our family have this pizza oven and it is on sale. I don’t know about you but I don’t like gadgets on my counter. I have my eye on this compact air fryer.

That’s it from my desk. Thank you for reading Seafood Chowder, Seasonal Decor, Sandra Sallin, and more. As always you can find all of my Sunday Fab Five here. I will be back tomorrow with the Christmas tour gang. I will be sharing my courtyard decorated for Christmas. Now let’s pop over and visit Mary Ann and Annie to see what they are up to.

    Hi cindy,
    This is NOT a duplicate comment

    Thank you for all your beautiful posts! One in particular caught my eye, but unfortunately I lost it and hunting through your collection has not turned it up, perhaps it was by one of your fellow bloggers, it recommended a book for a birthday man, of a certain age, which I thought was perfect for my soon turning 80 year old husband, can you help me locate it?

    Cindy, I LOVE everything plaid from JCREW and have many of their plaid shirts from years past. This year at the sale I bought the cashmere too.

    As for WS, we have the pizza oven and love it, and I have the Phillips air fryer and use it at least 4-5 times a week to make something.

    I do not eat seafood but I am going to pass this recipe off to my husband who loves it.

    Love Sandra and 9 x 16! Off to check out both to see what is new.

    Have a wonderful week Cindy!

    My favorite Blog to read on Sunday. Thank you so much for including my YOuTube channel. I so appreciate your support. I’m going to make that Bisque this weekend. Goodness it looks delicious. Love the plaid blouse with the skirt. You just have my taste!! Thank you again.

      Hi Karen

      I hope you have recovered from the visitors! My house is a complete disaster with all the company and now Xmas decor everywhere!

    I know you like statement jackets and was wondering if you knew about Soft Surroundings for statement jackets, etc.
    I ordered a lovely embroidered skirt from them this past Summer and it was absolutely dreamy to wear.

    • Cindy Hattersley says

      Hi M

      I do know about Soft Surroundings but haven’t ordered anything from them in years. I will give them another look!!

  8. Leslie says

    Love that plaid blouse. Bummer that it’s only available in a 00. Guess I didn’t need it!! I’m finally recovered from Thanksgiving. Are you?

    • Cindy Hattersley says

      Hi Leslie

      I knew things were going to sell out fast with that sale! Come visit on Wednesday. I have a Holiday shirt hack that you might enjoy!

  9. Gray says

    I got a navy tulle skirt last year from one of your links. Am thinking of wearing it with a black cashmere sweater, if it’s not too hot. Would like to wear it with boots, but am afraid that I might combust. So flats? We’ll see.

  10. Donna says

    Love your Blog, ,Cindy. Can you please tell us if you have ever used canned crab? It is a little more cost friendly than the kind that is sold fresh and refrigerated in a can. The bisque sounds delicious!

  11. Francesca Lobbe says

    Good morning Cindy,
    I am glad for the suggestions!
    Like you I tend to drag my feet and I thought I missed all the sales.
    Thank you and have a good day.

      Hi Francesca

      I know! I am trying to be better about that Francewsca. I did order some cashmere from J Crew

  12. JackIe says

    I always enjoy your Sunday Fab Five picks, and can’t wait to try the Seafood Chowder! I would love to find out more about the plaid blouse with the bling buttons. Where can I find it?

    • Cindy Hattersley says

      Hi Jackie

      I am sorry I failed to post the links!! They are live now! I have to quit burning the midnight oil on Saturday night!
