If I had to pick a theme for my life right now, it would be simplicity.

I have spent most of my life going overboard and to be honest, it hasn't always brought me happiness.

Right now, one of my biggest goals is to focus on the things that matter - time with family - and to simplify everything else.

I have to confess that many years, I’ve planned such ambitious holiday menus that I was so tired and cranky by the time the big day rolled around that I wasn’t able to enjoy a thing.

A few years, I might have even crossed over from cranky to angry. Why? Because everyone else was playing and having fun and I was on glued to the kitchen for the fourth day in a row.

This year, I am focusing on planning easy, delicious recipes that the whole family will love.

Today, I’m excited to share a perfectly simple recipe for the holidays - Mashed Potatoes Gratin.

Who doesn't like mashed potatoes?

Are you simplifying your holidays this year? How?
