First, I want to pat myself on the back for actually accomplishing a goal I set for myself . . . and that would be blogging every day in the month of December. Surprisingly, it wasn’t actually that difficult. There were only a couple of [...]

Tuesday, December 30th, 2008I made these puppies from scratch. And I’m so glad we’re finally done. The kitchen’s a mess now with all the decorating icing and candies and chocolate and coconut everywhere. But we’re done.

Saturday, December 27th, 2008I knew I was going to have family over today . . . but I procrastinated getting their Christmas gifts together. Par for the course.

Thursday, December 25th, 2008I’m so exhausted I accidentally published this post before I even wrote it! :duh:
I haven’t slept on Christmas Eve for the last several years, which always leaves me a bit loopy on Christmas day. But in a way, it’s a good thing because I’m so mellow, all the yelling and screaming in joy and excitement [...]
