Made up a Chex sweet snack mix with grand kids today

they were going at it I could tell we may have to keep this for next year!

I baked cookies yesterday!

The tree is up and watered, right on time (I once decided Dec 5 is a good date for getting a live tree - you have 3 weeks with it until the day after Christmas).

The stamps and return address labels are on the addressed card envelopes. I printed out the extra sentiments we are enclosing and have half of them cut and ready now. Just need signing, sealing and the very important thing - stickers!

I noticed our local CVS has really lovely pre-wrapping done for their Whitman's Samplers this year. I'm going to remember the tower they have of those if gift-giving gets too harrowing!

[Nancy]

Way to go Harriet!

[blessedw2]

Yeah dharriet!!!

Brownies are in the oven now for cookie tins later on.
Worked on the back of the house this week and that sure felt good!
