Beginning To Look Like Christmas

In a counter strike against the ol' homesick blues that like to sneak up and bite me on my ample booty, I've been decorating and getting stuff ready for Christmas.  I made cards this year (it didn't go well, please keep your guffawing to yourselves when they arrive), I'm baking and making fudge for gifts for Larry's office mates, and getting gifts ready to bring home.  It's been fun, and it's been a good distraction.  The minute I let myself be quiet for a little bit though, the bug takes a good chunk...so...busy I will try and stay!

Our cute little Charlie Brown tree from Ikea, flown all the way from the US in a refrigerated container!


Larry brought this little guy back from China.  I added the festive hat.

                                    Chestnuts roasting over an open fire...in Chinatown.



This is Frank and his big hairy butt on the Christmas place mats.  (don't worry, if you come over for dinner, I won't give you that one to eat off of!)

                   This a Singapore Santa...I found him at a craft fair...we think he's pretty nifty.

Hope your Holiday prep is going well too...today I attempt my first solo fudge making of the famous Rick Schuler Christmas fudge...results tomorrow!
