I went a little overboard on stocking stuffers.
Organic chocolate, raspberry chocolate, peach buds, ginger candy, rice candy (no idea what that's like, but that's part of the fun), Swiss Army knife-shaped chocolate, chocolate from England and Switzerland, maple candy from Vermont, rose candy from somewhere, mini-hot sauce, mini-saffron tubes, mini-summer sausage - the list goes on and on. I stopped by World Market, and their international food section is such fun.
SO started feeling lots better on Friday (thanks, mjrube94!).
We baked and baked and baked this weekend - spiced biscotti, orange almond biscotti, chocolate almond biscotti, honey lavender biscotti, snickers fudge, raspberry truffles, orange truffles, and chocolate covered pretzels. SO dipped some of the biscotti in melted chocolate as well. Most of it is packaged up and ready to go out. What happened to "I'll start this earlier next year"? I'll say it again - I'll start this baking thing earlier next year.
In addition, we finally tossed lights at the tree and bought a few ornaments. The living room is so cozy.
Work is so incredibly slow...I could be so much more productive at home, wrapping gifts and packing.
Tonight our massage friend is coming over for the last time. She is moving back to her home country. We will miss her, and our monthly massages!!
Thursday I'm getting together with a friend; Friday we're having dinner with relatives; Saturday we've got to give the frog prince to the birthday girl; and then I'm off to my parents' house for a week! Yowza!
stockings will be stuffed!
