Holiday Season!


We had a great Thanksgiving! I cooked, ate, napped, cooked some more, ate some more, etc etc.


I actually made HOMEMADE ROLLS - thanks to www.thepioneerwoman.com - her recipe for no knead dinner rolls is awesome ! I made them on Thursday morning and again on Friday night and baked that batch Saturday . Both family dinners I took them too RAVED over them and there were none left even though I made 3 dozen each time!

On Thursday night I went to bed at 8 30 pm ! I usually go to bed around 3 am - so this was big news! That thing about turkey making you sleepy must be true! Or maybe it was the fact that I have been going on about 4 hours of sleep a night for the last two weeks trying to get my new clients websites all up and running before December?

We put up the tree and decorated for Christmas yesterday - my home looks very inviting and I love how our tree looks in its new spot infront of our living room window - last year I stuck it in a corner - this year it is front and center. MUCH BETTER!

Notice my untrimmed window arch? I have ordered the trim 3 different times, everytime it comes in with the WRONG angle, wrong size, doesnt fit! I am trying again this month - maybe someday my window will be trimmed!

I have almost all my Christmas shopping done! woo hoo! Thank you ebay and amazon.com!

I want to thank you again for helping make a dream of mine come true. Working with you on the web site has been a great experience.
I'll be talking with you and you go girl on getting all that shopping done.
