forgot to take a picture of this cake I made for our Church's first ever baking contest....but a friend took a picture and emailed it to me!
So here it is, the first place winner....

(hard to tell on this picture, but it is a wreath, the flowers are at the bottom of it, with a purple bow at the top)
 
Good evening,

Just got done watching the Bruins vs Penguins game, the Bruins won (sorry CJ & Sugar) great game between my 2 favorite hockey teams. Tomorrow is wife and my big finish up Christmas shopping excursion, we've been really looking forward to this. My only issue is it is going to be an unchristmassy warm day nearly 60*F, this is New England, it needs to be colder.
Besides the fact we are hosting Christmas Eve, we are now hosting Christmas Day also, I will be limited on what I can do to help out, but that is what everyone wants this year.

Have a great night!

Beautiful work!
 
And the recipes are where??????

I am taking a break from baking. So far I got white chocolate orange walnut cookies, rocky road chocolate candy, vanilla creme cake balls and sugar cookies made. I am about to make snowball cookies, chocolate chip cookies and orange creme cake balls....QUOTE]
 
And with this post, Sugar is poster 26,900. For her efforts, she wins a tape recorder so she can record her husband's voice to play back when he works extra hours. Way to go!!!

Thanks for understanding, CAH! It is hard, on the both of us. He is my best friend, truly. I know a lot of married couples say that, but he is. He has been since high school. We started dating our junior year and have been insperable (sp?) since. We do things apart too, but also love the time we can spend together. He was glad to hear that once I get the kids to bed, I will have you guys to talk to and keep me company, along with the Hallmark Channel. :)



Sounds like a lovely time. I am glad you guys had a lot of fun!
 
Good evening, all!

It's been a crazy Monday, had to work late. I just ate a quick dinner, took Harlowe out back for some fetch, and wanted to stop by here to say a quick hello.

I have the Santa Clause on & am going to watch it as long as I can before I doze off. Hope all is well in your lives! Thinking of you, friends~

:merry:
 
Good morning! Well I start graveyard shifts today at Wally;) woohoo... I am garaunteed Christmas eve off:)


Merry Christmas to all & to all a good night!
 
150 meatballs cooked and 130 of them are now in the freezer. Now I just need to get started on making some candy.
way to go made,you are really on the ball w/ your baking. i've not even started!! boohoo
Good evening everyone! Well I got my trees up and decorated and I also wrapped all my gifts. Been a busy 4 days off. I go back to work tomorrow and hope on my next days off to do some baking. I still need to sit down and look over my MMC cookbook. Hope everyone is doing well. I decided to put the little white Angel (left on picture) on the top of my vintage tree. It looks really nice with all the different vintage ornaments on it. Have a good week!
oh i love that one, i bet the tree is gorgeous!
EA and I are watching "Charlie Brown Christmas" and enjoying a bowl of popcorn. Lol...but she's already asking me when we can watch Dora. Geez...I was hoping maybe she would watch something different tonight. I guess I will be popping the Dora DVD in as soon as this is over...
we watched Charlie Brown too. me, daughter, & hubby. hubby couldn't wait for it to be over...he's such a party pooper!
Good evening all! I have benn enjoying my bro visiting me from California,but he leaves in the morning so I will be back here full time! We have been having HOT weather for December, today was a high of 79F,and it was humid. Boy they were not kidding when they said it would be warmer in the south this year! I have 2 more days of work until Christmas vacation!!! I go back to work on monday Jan 2nd! I am looking forward to time off and enjoying the last few days with Brandi before the baby comes!(due date jan 3rd) Have a good night everyone!
i hope you & your bro had a nice visit. speaking of the warm weather, we are too. i even had the a/c on yesterday! yuck, i wish it would get cooler. hope brandi is feeling good this close to due date. i know it's rougher towards the end sometimes.
I will have my Christmas shopping finished hopefully by Thursday night. Was hoping to finish it all today, but with an emergency stop at the dentist for a toothache that didnt happen.

Have to go back next week for two fillings and the nerve endings to be pulled from where a crown came loose and I swallowed it :(.

Please pray for my grandma and uncle as we are having a tough year. My uncle is mourning the loss of his father (passed in September) by heavily drinking, which ironically is the cause of him being unable to mourn in September with the rest of the family (he was drinking alot and fell down the stairs and was in ICU until right before Thanksgiving).

Grandma cannot see very well (85 y/o) and both her sons use that to their advantage to sneak booze into the house.

Thank you
i'll be praying for your family....sounds alot like some issues my rents have @ their home. you take care &congrats on the shopping almost complete! now if i could just get started!!!!8-)

Good Morning all! Going to a Christmas concert at my daughter's school this evening. All of those annual events that help make the season happy. Everyone have a great day! :merry:
 
No never have been there, I live less than 200 miles away from NYC, so it would be an easy daytrip.
I sure hope you get to go someday!

I think your weather is here in Texas. Freezing weather and snow just west of us.
And the recipes are where??????
I just googled them on the internet. I just love the internet!!! =)
If you would like any of them let me know which one and I will post them!

I'm sorry your family is having such a hard time. Alcohol can ruin an entire family if it gets a grip on one member. Praying that your family can heal, both physically and from the hold of alcohol.
 
Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

Wifey-poo finally came home from her overnight trip to Atlanta with her sister. Of course, the kids had to study for 5 tests scheduled for today, so she came in and went to work with them. Welcome home, honey!

I finally got the cover put on the pool yesterday afternoon. I am tickled to death! I was told that if I didn't want to drain the pool below the skimmer and drain the pump completely, I'd have to get a timer so that it runs at night, to keep it from freezing. I can't decide whether or not to drain it. Since it's supposed to be 80° today, I might take the cover off & go swimming!

I went to my last city council meeting as a councilman last night. The next time I walk into that building, I'll be the mayor! We always meet on the first Monday in the month, but the first Monday in January is January 2. That means I'd have to be sworn in on New Years Day...unlikely. So, I asked the council to reschedule the first meeting to the next Monday. That will give us time to do the swearing-in and plan a reception for the outgoing mayor (and his wife, who is currently our clerk). Busy, busy!

Lastly, Best Buy has another tablet on sale! It's a 10" Android by Asus. I think this is the one! Linky!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy
 
It was very cold all day yesterday and made for a perfect day to bake. I baked all day long!

I had Christmas music playing real loud and singing my lungs out. I am glad there was not a hidden camera, that would have been an embarrassing site for me! :lol: My doggies were looking at me funny and I told them to sing and dance along with me! When I said that to them they wagged their tail. =)

I have not baked like that in many years and it was nice to do so. Everyone in the family will be getting their goodie plate from me today. =)

Thank you so much! This is a hard Christmas for my family anyway, and with the added stress from my uncle, who was just taken back to the hospital by my father is going to make it even more difficult
