some december highlights so far.
1. i’ve had three etsy orders this month, two of them big!
2. i have done no prep work for 2014’s year of blogging. 🙁
3. i haven’t even looked at my devil’s syrup book
4. but my presents are wrapped, tree is up, and tonight i plan on hanging my railing lights and tinsel.
5. and most baking shopping is done. ready for cookies this sunday!
6. but i need to get going on my christmas movie watching.
7. and mail charlie’s xmas presents!
8. and i feel like i have no time to get anything done…
i’ve already started on my christmas movie watching.
1. rudolph – my mom and i watched it when it was on tv before thanksgiving. sacrilege, i know! but dang, it looks good remastered and on a decent tv! ready, santa!
2. national lampoon’s christmas – i actually watched this t-day night, i believe. i was waiting for old navy to start their bf sales, and popped this up on amazon streaming. i think i like it more each time i watch it.
3. elf – it was so early to watch this one! but i did anyway since my mom requested it and jane was in the area. i might have to watch it again closer to the date.
what else is on my list?
i’m sure i’m missing something. we’ll see as the day gets closer!
welcome december! this morning i got to open door one on my lindt advent calendar. unfortunately, the prize was a white chocolate ball covered in milk chocolate. boo!
i put up some christmas lights outside on my front door pole thing and hung a star with lights on it outside. also put up my LED branches with my fake poinsettia in a vase and put together the small tree i got for next to my front door.
i’ve decided to put up my tree next sunday. this is a weird year for figuring out when to put up my tree. if a weekend fell on the 12th, i wouldn’t have a problem. it was either next sunday or friday after that. since friday i’ll be prepping for cookie weekend, sunday it is. woo!
speaking of cookies, i want to make these macaron. they’re so pretty!
more cookie posts to come, i’m sure.
