Christmas Countdown - 2014

[snowflake22]

Hello everyone.

Well, Happy has been acting increasingly strange (even more so than usual ), so I took him to the vet yesterday. Some tests have been run and he doesn't have a tumor. The vet did diagnose him with dementia.

They said he will get progressively worse, but we may try to slow it down with medicine. We are going to try for a month and see.

I hope you all have a great day. See you at the Pines!

Keeping Happy & you all in my prayers.
(((Hugs)))

See you at The Pines!

Thanks made - for the drink & the prayers. LOL!! ;-)



Here you go:



http://www.madetobeamomma.com/2013/12/holiday-recipes-using-pillsbury-crescent-rolls.html



2 cans of Pillsbury crescent rolls

1 package cream cheese

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1 can cherry or strawberry pie filing



glaze:

Powdered sugar

Milk

1/2 tsp vanilla extract



Set two roll sections aside for candy cane stripes. Lay out remaining crescent roll sections in the shape of a candy cane making sure to overlap the edges slightly. Use a knife to cut out your candy cane shape. Mix together your cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Spread on top of your candy candy shape.

Spoon pie filling on top of cream cheese filling.

Using the remaining two roll sections, cut off long strips, twirl and lay on top of your filling to create a candy cane look. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until bread is golden brown.



Glaze:

Mix together ingredients alternating between powdered sugar and milk until desired consistency is obtained.



Drizzle over baked candy cane and enjoy!

Thanks for sharing!! Yum!

I'm not too knowledgable with this type of stuff... Some of the tests from today are in. My brother's wife has Stage 2B breast cancer. She will begin chemo on Friday. She has 18 weeks total with chemo happening every third week. It's going be an exhausting fight for her, but I know she will come out on top.

Thanks again to everyone!

Sending up many prayers for Cassandra, your brother & your entire family!

Enjoy your day off with Kim. I hope you find something festive to do!

I hope making lunch and listening to Christmas music counts as festive. We might take a walk tonight, depending on the temperature.

I hope she does very well with the chemo! Some people can get through it without too many side-effects, I hope she is one of them & she has a 100% recovery!!! Sending prayers!

I hope making lunch and listening to Christmas music counts as festive. We might take a walk tonight, depending on the temperature.

Sounds festive to me!! I hope you can get a walk in & check out Christmas lights!!!

Sweet!!! Ours is still showing a mix of rain and snow but the weathermen are saying it's trending more towards snow at this point.
