Hello again! Hope your holidays were merry and BRIGHT! Speaking of which, I've discovered flameless candles. I can't believe how realistic these are. This one is from Land's End, it has a nice vanilla scent and is programmable--it turns on and off automatically. Love that!!
Our holidays were spiced up with other sweet things too. The girls made lots of cookies, including these tradtional favorites that we all helped decorate. And eat. Of course.
And they made organic chocolates for their Dad...which they hid in empty ice-cream boxes in the freezer. He never suspected a thing. Seeing his face light up when he opened the boxes on Christmas morning was well worth all their efforts.
My mini apple turn-overs were also appreciated.
When the presents were opened, Lilly was absolutely delighted to claim her place under the tree again.
New card games like 'Apples to Apples' kept things lively. 'Horse-opoly' went on for two days. With lots of knitting and nibbling in between.
Ahh...and now it's all over for another year. Thank you for the Happy New Year wishes. Here's wishing you all a mighty fine 2011!
