Awesome challenge and great "things"! Love the inspiration cards!
Fantastic!! So many terrific ideas for creative thinking for your blog and the joint competition with UYS!! EXCITING!!!
My sweet Christmas memory (it's difficult to limit to one!) would be the foods always brought to my paternal grandmother's home while I was a youngster! She always prepared home-made rolls and noodles, mashed potatoes and then my aunt Barb made divinity and fudge and my mom made her vanilla and chocolate caramels!!! Yum!!
I'm back again! Thank you to Sue for letting me know that I missed linking up at Use Your Stuff - not sure where my head is these days but thanks for the nudge - I have now linked up at Use Your Stuff!
As for my favourite sweet memory about Christmas, it would be my Mom's homemade chocolate chip cookies. She always made these when we were young, and then after we were older and moved out, she would give us each a can of them at Christmas. Sadly she doesn't bake them any more. They were so yummy!
When I was young, there would always be a Christmas party at the factory where my father worked. They would distribute little items for the workers to take home for their children. And each year we got a nice, sweet, juicy orange. What a treat! (Way back then.)
Thank you for the fun challenge(s)! What a fun blog concept. Looking forward to participating more often! Best, CG
Sweet challenge, growing up in my house my dad would bake Christmas cookies and they would always be laid out and covered over on the dining room table the hoildays. So you know when your little a choice between breakfast and a homemade shortbread which would always be 1st ... shortbread. Hugs Nikki C
This is my first visit to this blog. Must take time to study it out thoroughly but for now an entry and my drink - eggnog latte.
