Friday! There is a happy dance going on here! Almost like a starting line really as I have not even put our tree up yet. I know right? Life gets busy and I well.. yeah. Today’s the day. I am also not done Christmas shopping… but between today and tomorrow… I plan to be. 🙂
Recently (yesterday) I won a copy of the upcoming gorgeous looking book, Evertrue from Amber at Me, My Shelf, and I. When Amber emailed me for my address and I responded back, she emailed me this:
Shut up. I could drive this to you!
Turns out, Amber lives about two hours from me in Minnesota. 🙂 I love that!
I also recently had a win of a bookish ornament from Ashley at Papyrusaurus that arrived in the mail yesterday. How cute is this:
This morning I am having brunch here at the house with three great friends. We will do our little Christmas exchange and hang out over great coffee and conversation. Then this afternoon I have coffee with another friend, and then tonight we attend an annual Christmas party of friends. In between all of that, I will be trying out a couple of caramel variations off my recipe and maybe… maybe a little shopping.
Hope this start to your weekend is wonderful!
Oh – and I have two giveaways going on – dont miss out:



Sounds like you have a busy start to your countdown to Christmas. Party Girl that you are. I wonder how do you get all those book read? Oh , maybe I should ask , When do you sleep? Have a great holiday. See you back here, Monday!
Oh yeah…. party girl….lol 🙂 Audio is my salvation when times are busy like this 🙂
Congratulations on a couple of great wins! All I have left to do is plan our menu and grocery shop. I’m not sure when I’ll get either done, though. It’s a busy time of the year!
That is not ever on the agenda yet Kathy..LOL
I’m doing tree this weekend too, after I clean the house and mop the floors! A lot of work ahead. Have fun.

I have the house cleaning part done – maybe tomorrow I will get that tree up this later afternoon was really a crazy day that I do not wish to repeat any time soon.
Good luck getting everything accomplished! I have to tackle wrapping… I hate wrapping. That’s why I haven’t started!
I dont mind it – I just need to do it 😀
Sounds like a fun weekend, and that you’ll have something to do every minute between now and Christmas. Enjoy!
Right? That stresses me out a bit 😉
That is adorable!!!
Isnt it? She said it was made from a Sherlock Holmes book!
Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas Care! 🙂
I love that ornament! It looks wonderful. Congratulations on your wins. I love it when I find out that someone from bloglandia lives close to me!
Thanks Athira. I get excited too – go Minnesota bloggers!!!
I love this ornament, but knowing me, I don’t think I’d be able to resist painting all the edges with aurora glitter paint 🙂
