Wrapping
Well, unwrapping! This is the best money I have spent on Groupon lately! The cats adore it! They were even excited while I was unwrapping it.
As for wrapping, I have all gifts wrapped except an odd shaped one for my son. I'll probably have to get a bag for that.
Baking
Since Thanksgiving just passed, we can share our baking things. Candied Sweet Potatoes, Made from Scratch Green Bean Casserole and the meat and cheese platter shaped like a turkey. I did make cranberry sauce with some garlic in it. It was so good with the ritz crackers! I think because they were shaped like snowflakes, it made them taste better.
Lighting
The Christmas Tree! I thought I misplaced my lights and I purchased new ones. Then, I found them in the bottom of my decorations bin. Why in the world did I put them there? I have extra lights now and they are up on the tree. Also, enjoy the Kibben.
Sending
I sent a book swap out. I am going to attempt Christmas/Holiday cards!
Enjoying
Time with Family! Love their faces!
Yay for the book swap. I have one to mail out today.
ReplyDeleteWhich other ones do you participate in? I feel like I need to find another one since the busymamabookswap is going down to quarterly.
DeleteBook swaps are fun! I have a few secret santa type of swaps that I need to get wrapped and mailed out too.

I'm participating in a secret santa too! I don't even know what to get my person. I asked for a wishlist through the app though, so I hope she gives me one. Otherwise, I am guessing or I'll ask around about her. :)
DeleteOoh your Thanksgiving spread looks great! And I love this idea of a book swap - I've got to get on one of these :) Happy December!
ReplyDeleteHappy December! Book swaps are a lot of fun! I like for people to surprise me with books!
DeleteI'm so jealous of your copy of My True Love Gave to Me. I went to Barnes and Noble to get it and it's out of print! I will have to check online. I love your cheese platter turkey!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! My niece ate all the pepperonis off it before anyone else could have any.
DeleteI hope you find the book, if you don't, let me know and I will send you my copy when I'm done. I've read a few of the stories already.
A book swap sounds like my kind of thing...I can't bring myself to join a book group. I hear too many stories about people not reading the books, just showing up to chat, and I think that'd made me jump out of my skin! So Book SWAP really entices me! Looks like a fantastic Thanksgiving!!
ReplyDeleteIf you look up hashtag #busymamabookswap on Insta, you will find the one I participate in. I would love to find another one, since this one has gone quarterly. I don't do book clubs either. I'm better at reading at my own pace.
DeleteI can't wait to get more cats so I can get my hands on a little cabin for them! That is SO DANG CUTE!
ReplyDeleteAlso, tell me about this book swap thing! I LOVE books/reading and am always joining book clubs haha.

Hi Amy! If you look up hashtag #busymamabookswap on Insta, you will find the one I participate in. It's gotten so big that she is doing it quarterly now, instead of once of month. It's a lot of work for one person!
DeleteI feel like I should have ordered more than one cat cabin, one of the cats likes to hog it a little bit. :)
Those books look fun! And the food looks fab. What's the recipe for Made From Scratch Green Bean Casserole.
