It's when you hit a monday and you don't have to go to work that it really starts to feel like you're on vacation. Today I finished up the last of my Christmas shopping. I was almost done, but needed a couple more stocking stuffers for my family and the rest of Brad's present. I also had wrapped myself right out of wrapping paper, so I picked up some more of that and wrapped what was left. So everything is bought and everything is wrapped...and it's only December 21st. One year, Brad and I got home from Puerto Rico on Dec. 21st and pretty much started our Christmas shopping then. So for us to be all done, is pretty amazing. I've started a little baking as well. I tried out some new recipes from a magazine. They turned out okay, nothing amazing. Today I went for some old standbys - Ritz bits in almond bark and pretzals in almond bark, all topped with M&Ms. Perfectly bite sized and great for snacking :)
Brad has been working like crazy since he finished work. I think he's pretty much spent most of the past four days in the basement...working on the basement bathroom and repluming the entire house. So I don't have to worry about doing the dishes after baking since there's no water in the kitchen :)
