I mean, really??? We never have a white Christmas but we usually have cooler, brisk days around Christmas time. I wouldn't say it's ever coat weather but alot of times, it's cool enough for a light sweater. Not this year. Nope. Air conditioning just kicked on and the humidity is at 89%.
Christmas in the South!
I took a stroll around the house....
As most of you know, I'm addicted to crazy looking elves! The kinds with crazy faces and eyes. My daughter in law has always made fun of my love for them. Well, fast forward to now and my 6yr old granddaughter, Josey, who now thinks I'm even more cray cray for loving the elves. She goes around my house, in every room, counting them and shaking her head at me!!!! Which, of course, rocks my world!!
These are just a few of them. Like a very few!!!
Funny story: My plan for today was to make some Christmas goodies. Needed food processor. Couldn't get my Cuisinart to even turn on. 💁
No clue what's wrong with it and got a leetle mad because I had everything out and was ready to work. Then thought 😵 I wonder....looked under my island and what to my wondering eyes...Found the old standby..
A wedding present from 45 years ago!!!! Worked like a charm!!! Cannot believe I still even have it!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Tried new recipe for my peanut butter balls this yr. Instead of the peanut butter/confectioners sugar/butter concoction, I tried this:
NUTTER BUTTER TRUFFLES
1 16 oz. pkg of Nutter Butter Cookies
1 8oz. block of cream cheese, softened
1/2 lb white chocolate bark, melted
1/2 lb chocolate almond bark, melted
**I used semi-sweet chips and dark chocolate chips with a lil parafin**
Blend cookies in food processor until fine. Add softened cream cheese.
Roll into balls and place in freezer for 20 min.
Coat in chocolate and swirl white chocolate over top
Got to watch my youngest grandson perform yesterday in his kindergarten Christmas program!!
💓 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
Now.....on to my menus and more grocery shopping to finalize for our Christmas Eve gala!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND MAY YOUR HOLIDAYS BE HAPPY!!!
