This year we decided to make our own little cards for the children to hand out. We started with 8 1/2 cardstock in black, white and light blue. Glitter pens and markers, a few stamp sets and some fun foam shapes. Here's what we came out with!
My little hens are doing so good! I'm so thankful that they have continued to lay eggs for me. I usually collect 3-4 per day and a few times we've got 5 from them. Which is really great considering I now only have four hens. You don't want to know what happened to the others. I still have some roosters though.
Oh, I just love baking during the Christmas season. My whole family likes to have little tins sitting around, filled with all sorts of goodies! And for the week before Christmas I like to have my family's favorite meals ready to serve.
Camille and I were planning our menu for Christmas week. Here's what we're having.
Monday 21st: Potato-Corn Chowder w/Homemade Croutons
Tuesday 22nd: Baked Ziti w/Steamed Veggies & Garlic Biscuits
Wednesday 23rd: Shepherds Pie w/Brown Gravy, Carrots & Butter'd Bread
Thursday 24th: Broccoli Braid w/Barley & Sesame Sticks
Friday 25th: Chunky Beef Stew w/Brown Rice & Corn Cakes
One of the reasons I chose these items for our menu is because they're easy, quick and some of them can be made that morning or even the day before. I can just pop them into the oven and have a hot, hearty dinner ready for comfort on those cold nights!
