a little more Christmas love …

… because I am really feeling the season here.  Presents are wrapped.  379e

Goodies are baking. (yes, I’m still in the baking mood!)   Snow is on the ground.  The kiddos are excited.  Yes, it’s Christmas in our house. 

I went ahead and copied that idea from the designer’s show house with the hydrangeas on the kitchen windowsill.  I had a hard time with the light between it being overcast and the snow outside.  The window grids are still being painted, but they’ll be back soon to finish it off. But I think you get the idea.   They make me smile every time I go into my kitchen.

Another thing that makes me smile is all your sweet comments on my posts.  I wish I could share Peppermint Patties and Red Velvet Truffles with all of you. 

And now the star of the show … plain, and extra sparkly versions…

More to come … I hope you’re all enjoying the season as much as we are.

Best,
Stephanie
