This week, random.org handed me Mama Kat prompt number five: Put together a holiday outfit you’d love to wear at a holiday party should a holiday party ever be on your list of things to do.

Throw in a manicure so my nails are just right, and I’d be ready to indulge in some holiday festiveness.
Who’s ready for a girls’ night out?
Wife of one, Mom of two, Friend of many. My pronouns are she/her/hers.
