A cozy day


Normally I keep my opinion to myself, but since its the holiday season...
In my opinion.......this is true Christmas music!! Why?? Because it reminds me of my childhood and my dad!! I have a hard time with all the new bands screaming Silent Night, Away In A Manger....etc over the electric guitar!! In my opinion......no one should sing those songs except Nat King Cole, or Bing Crosby, or Dean Martin !!
And that is my opinion that is worth nothing to anyone else but me :)


I made a big batch of bread yesterday and set it by the fire, on the hearth, to rise!
The men folk were at a wilderness first aid course all day and it was cold out, so I planned for their arrival home....,.,.



A big batch of meatballs and sauce, with homemade breadsticks, salad, and sugar cookies for dessert!!





These little Christmas mice were made by my talented Mama!! Aren't they cute??? I just had to post them for you to see.....
