It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas!

No, seriously.  I was in Target yesterday, and there was a Christmas aisle set up RIGHT NEXT TO the Halloween section.  I’m thinking that’s a little bit premature.  But then again, I suppose it’s NEVER too early to start thinking about Christmas. In fact, there have been years that I had my Christmas cards bought, [...]

Why do I feel the need to post not one, but TWO times on Christmas Day? When only two people in the whole world are probably online anyway.

Snowy Day Family Fun

cookies making

What do you do when you’re snowbound?  Well, make cookies, of course! (Um.  WHAT is that vacuum cleaner doing in my Norman Rockwell moment?) And then eat the evidence. At least C stops to admire her creation before popping it in her mouth. And guess who’s the third child?  Doesn’t she look so proud of [...]

In which she tackles perhaps the most contoversial topic of the 21st century…

Christmas Tour of Homes with The Nester

It’s that time again!  In fact, it crept up on me this year.  I was on Twitter last night, and I saw the link to The Tour of Tours and realized it was already up and running and I had missed out!  Oh well, better late than never, right?  I immediately set about taking pictures [...]

It’s Better to Taste Good than to Look Good

Originally posted December 16, 2008. When I married into my husband’s family, I inherited the family molasses cookie recipe.  Supposedly this recipe goes back to Moses.  Or at  least to the 19th century.  At any rate, it’s been around for a while, and there is a reason for this.  They are GOOO-HOOOD!  And they are [...]

What Makes Your Season Bright?

This post is sponsored by Target.  The winning number for the Target gift card, according to Random.org was 20.  Congratulations Shelly @ Life on the Wild Side!!! Okay, don’t kill the messenger, but are you aware?  Christmas is six weeks away.  After summer, Christmas is my favorite time of the year.  Yes, summer.  I’d take [...]

Pumpkin Carving

Don’t I slay you with my creative post titles? R was quite enamored with the pumpkin guts.  Her brother was, well, NOT. “Mom, can we make pumpkin pie?” Then it was time to carve him.  Daddy had a lot of help. Happy Halloween!
