Good Morning and Welcome to Wednesday the 3rd day of December, 2014.
Another day closer to Christmas.
I am so excited to do some Christmas baking this Saturday.
The plan is to make sugar cookies, macaroons and fudge.
Those are the main ones and if something else sneaks in there that would be fine as well.
I love to bake.
I am going to try and be a bit fancy decorating the sugar cookies this year.
Will have to figure something out …. no ideas at the moment …. just know that I want to make them different and pretty.
I hope that you have your list made and that you are zipping along with each task on it.
Just take one day at a time.
That is what I try to do.
If you look at the number of days left you might just feel overwhelmed.
Also even if you do happen to run out of time …… Christmas always turns out.
It is more the feelings that you have and are surrounded by than actual physical things.
More than a feeling …….
Well almost time to go to work.
Today I work at the office and then tonight at the store.
I love helping people find just the right gift.
Thanks again for reading my blog.
Have a fantastic day.
Oh, by the way I went to have my eyes checked yesterday afternoon and they are actually better distance wise and a bit less so close up.
No surprise.
I ordered some new specs and sunglasses and then there will be a new me.
It is like dressing up in a costume …. I always feel like a new person when I get new glasses.
The same applies to hair cuts.
Which reminds me …. almost time for me to trim my hair.
Yes, I cut my own hair.
Just basic but it works.
Happy Wednesday.
Always, Carol and Alvin

Why don’t u decorate your cookies with a small version of your Dear Stella logo or something printed on rice paper, even little pics of your puppy or the ones u just got done……….hmmm.. U can make a bunch on the computer and send it to a bakery and they will transfer it to rice paper….then after a thin layer of icing, you can drop it on. Won’t those be original and cute! Your talented daughter can help u out with them.
