Happy Thanksgiving to all my Secret Santa Swapper friends! Enjoy your day with family and friends!!


                                   HAVE A GREAT TURKEY DAY!! GOBBLE, GOBBLE11

Has been a very busy week so far and I'm thankful that we had a half day of school today so that I can get some much needed work done here. Just wanted to mention that I got my Secret Santa package from Valerie in LA. What a terrific and sweet person she is to send such a nice package. Some beautiful homemade items and a great looking book. My favorite candy to boot. She stalked my blog well I think. Can't wait to get some pics to post, but just wanted to make sure she knew I received it. Thanks Valerie! Will be writing more soon!

The Apron For My Secret Pal

I have tried over and over to take pictures, this is as good as it seems to want to get. What I was hoping you could see are the pockets that go from side to side, but with all the adorable little penguins, they just seem to have blended right into the apron.

I really think this is going to be a happy edition to my package!

OMG! as I live & breath! my morning started out uber great!
So true to my word, first thing today I went to the Post Office to mail off 2 packages, one to my childhood BFF in Germany, and the other to my 'Secrete Santa Swap Partner'... when what to my surprise,,,, I have 2 packages waiting to be picked up by me.... one from my 'mommy' and the other from my other secrete Santa Swap partner...Jennifer!
So I had to wait until I returned from town late this evening, to be able to open my package from Jennifer.... Squeal!!!! I luv all the goodies and will be wearing my flirty apron this coming Thursday.
So here is a photo of my goodies and the second photo is of my sweet apron and pot holder...oh and No, the glass and bottle of Merlot were not in the package,,, It was my treat  to myself for a long day in town!
Thank you so very much Jennifer for all the fun goodies....a proper Thank you will arrive by mail....

 Notice the 'Wine Ornaments'?   heeheehee, Thank you Jennifer  :>)

 Is this cute or what! I love purple & green...... even my bed room is done in purple and green.
HoHoHo & Bingle Jells!

Snowing You A Peek...

I decided to use the word SNOW since it is a joke in our home that I am the Snow Witch and if I want it to snow it will...snow, snow, snow.  So, in a word, it fit!

S is for seasons, spring, summer, fall and winter and a mug rug for each...

 So here are 3 of the 4...a purple violety one for spring, a starry red, white and blue for summer and a Halloween one with a candy corn cupcake for fall....winter is right around the corner....

   




















I like to recycle/repurpose so since N is for notions and nifty, I put together from a Crystal Light container a nifty notions button box and yes, there are some buttons inside.  Even my hubby thought it was cute!

O is for ornaments and I picked up 2 silvery glittery snowmen to go with the O:

 For W, of course it is winter, so I chose a wonderful winter fabric that was fun and by the way, ahem....whimsical for the apron which I will be finishing up this week.

 Of course I will have to add some yummies and goodies and it will be complete!
