Aaaa…Christmas time in New York City! We’ve seen the city captured during the holidays in countless movies and in our dreams. I guarantee you that it lives up to all the hype (and the crowds). There’s no shortage of things to do, see and eat during the holidays in NYC, but I’ve rounded up the 10 must-dos for you.

Alexa and my Echo Show 5 have made me the hostess with the mostest this holiday season. We’ve baked a pumpkin pie and apple crumb pie for Friendsgiving using the Food Network Amazon App!

No matter who you're shopping for, you need look no further than my beauty favorites from Dermstore. Dermstore is one of my favorite places to check everyone off my list. Founded by a Dermatologist, Dermstore offers professional-strength formulas from top skin care brands (otherwise only available at a dermatologist’s office), hard-to-find spa care and natural beauty brands, professional hair care and makeup products, and specialty brands from around the world.

Not having a mantle or all the living space in the world can make you feel like you’re SOL when it comes to decorating this time of year. With a little bit of imagination, anything from a stairway to a windowsill is ripe territory for the Christmas spirit. So, c’mon…let’s deck those halls!

Are you all pumpkin-ed out yet? No? Good! Because I have one more treat you need to bake before we move on to the holiday season. This recipe is a bit of a hybrid between a mini galette and a Danish pastry (which have the centre filled with custard), the result is a crunchy buttery tart with a creamy pumpkin center, topped with a drunken apple — seriously good!

Whether you’re hosting a sit-down Thanksgiving or a Friendsgiving buffet this year, these recipes give our favorite dishes a modern twist. On the menu: a boozy cheese board (yes, it’s a thing), an unexpected salad, a next-level turkey and ombré pears (also a thing).

Seasonal spiced cocktail served with a side of dessert. Could you ask Santa for anything more?
