Do you know what today is? Today is 7 days before Christmas! I’ve already begun to pack up my things for the long stay at my mother’s house. I’ve got most of the gifts wrapped and I’m planning for all of the sweet treats we’ll be bringing to share. Oh, and did I mention itsRead more
Happy Monday to you all. This past week has been a busy one, baking 3 pecan pies, countless sugar cookies, and wrapping all sorts of presents.

Its officially December. For me, December means a great deal of things. There’s the usual Christmas, and Holiday parties. There’s shopping for gifts, wrapping and decorating. December is also my birthday (precisely one week before Christmas) – so that’s thrown into the mix. December means seeing people I haven’t seen in a while, catching upRead more
Happy first Monday in December!! Its one of those amazing sort of months coming up- where joy and goodwill somehow resonate over business that threatens to overwhelm. This week I’ve got Hubby’s work Christmas party, and on Wed I’ll be visiting nursing homes with little gifts to brighten their month. But don’t think I’ve beenRead more
I’ve had this idea in my head for a while, ever since I saw this Candy Buttons post by the Amazing SugarBelle . I never particularly cared for candy buttons when I was a kid, but The concept of it has always been intriguing. Candy arranged neatly on a peice of paper. But what if itRead more
