Christmas Greetings!

I used to have this idea of what home security was.

I thought it was like an alarm that goes off after someone tries to break in and that scares off the intruder.

Maybe it gets your neighbor's attention.

But what I learned is that's really a reactive approach.

By the time the intruder's in your home, it's too late.

And you know, that's one of the things I really love about Simply Safe, because their system is designed to be proactive, not reactive.

And here are ways that they are proactive.

They use smart, AI-powered cameras to identify threats lurking outside your home and immediately alert SimplySafe's professional monitoring agents.

You also might be wondering, how do I design my home security system?

And I can tell you from personal experience, their website is so easy to use.

They literally have a toggle that says build my system and you click on it and you go through all the different features that they offer and there are so many.

I've found that really helpful.

Some of the cameras they offer are like the outdoor cameras, the video doorbell pro,

which that one I really like because you can see who's coming right up to your front door.

Hey, office ladies listeners.

Hello there.

Happy holidays.

We want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, a happy holiday, and let you know that we are off this week and next.

Yeah, guys, we want to hang out with our families, you know, get in some fun time with the kiddos, and we hope you're having a great time with your family as well.

I am going to attempt to make my very first panettone.

Do you know what panetone is, Angela?

Jenna, I don't know what that is.

So you had mentioned it, so I googled it and it looks like a very fancy bread.

Yes, it is a spiced holiday bread.

It has dried fruit in it.

It takes about two days to make.

Okay.

So a year ago on Christmas, I went to my friend Lindsay's house and she served a Panettone.

Didn't you say Lindsay, though, is like always in like a ball gown, but always has amazing food.

Like this is a very put together person.

Yes, she's the person who recommended that cleanse that I went on.

She also serves amazing holiday bread.

She's my goals, basically.

Yeah.

And this started me on my breadmaking journey.

It's my one-year anniversary of baking homemade bread.

Even my bread making teacher, Bonnie O'Hara, told me she will not make Panettone because it's too difficult.

She said she made it once and she'll never make it again, but I am determined.

I'm going to take it on.

I'm going to make a Panettone this year.

So for the holidays, this is like our kids' wish list.

They want to see Star Wars.

So we're going to go see Star Wars.

They want to go to an escape room.

Oh, they're so fun, Angela.

I've never, is it scary?

No.

Well, you have to pick the right one.

I don't want a scary.

This is like with our kids.

They have some that are special for kids.

Okay.

You have to, I'll send you a link.

Will you?

Okay, so they really want to do an escape room.

And then, Jenna, I'm glad you're sitting down because

I'm going to make bread.

What?

You're going to make bread?

I'm going to make bread because, okay, so our family came out at Thanksgiving.

Josh's sister makes this rosemary bread from scratch.

It's so good.

And she showed me how to do it.

But as you know, I don't have a ton of patience with any kind of baking or crafting.

And this takes like two days.

And I don't.

You're making a two-day bread.

I'm making a two-day bread.

And I'm making a two-day bread.

Lady, and we didn't even plan it.

We didn't.

That's best friendship right there.
