Dear Karen~ Oh, The Gift

Dear Karen.

Larry ran across the parking lot

waving the gift and yelling: Stop! Stop!

But, you  and John were gone.

I am so sorry that I forgot all about it.

I was thinking about our dinner with you and John

and it certainly was a gift to us.

Did the visit go fast or was it my imagination?

Do you know what else was a gift?

That DESSERT! Oh My GOSH.

I am off to the Mailing Room to mail your gift!

Love you.

Can You Guess? OR On The Christmas List

It is guess time.

Can you guess what I have been doing?

Well, I have been testing a new kitchen gadget.

It is time to plan party menus, guest lists

and decide how I will set my table……

one of my favorite times of year.

For my birthday I was given a waffle bowl maker.

{I wanted one for ages}

I have saved it till now, the holidays.

Today was test and taste test day.

I made them.

I ate them

and

I cannot wait to make a dozen of them for the freezer!

{I used Bisquick waffle mix for the batter}

If you are looking for a Christmas gift for someone

who likes gadgets like I do,

this is one for the list.

I LOVE this thing. {it was easy to use too}

I have a list of ideas for fillings….so excited!

Presto Waffle Bowl Maker, I love you beyond the  moon.

Me.

 

 

Just A Smile

Yesterday, My Larry and I went to McDonalds and bought 10 gift cards.

{he is taking 5 and I am taking five}

Whenever we see anyone who might need a meal,

a thank you,

a  hug

or a Merry Christmas!

We will give them a card……

maybe you have something you would like to share

with someone in need.

Even if it is just a smile.

Love you,

Me.
