I am doing the same thing but with a small cup of oatmeal and water.
BUT my Christmas tree lights are still on! The tree will most likely come down this weekend.......... :cry:

I'm so jealous that you still have your Christmas Tree up. :elf:

Sounds like a Christmas dream!

Can you share your Christmas project with me? Michelle loves doing pallet projects and has a few in the garage just waiting for inspiration.

Merry Friday Christmas! It's a cruise weekend..........well tonight anyway. Someone asked me how much our cruises cost. A quick over night cruise with a nice dinner, breakfast buffet and lunch usually cost 1-2 weeks of groceries. This was an "I need to get away from the stress cruise" so we are "bum". B cabin (twin beds, no window), dinner buffet and breakfast, no lunch (they have a coffee, sandwich, sweet roll type café) was around $70. Since we don't really have any expensive hobbies, I guess cruising is ours. We go about every 4-6 weeks. In March we are taking a day cruise and a bus ride to Åland (island republic between Finland and Sweden) and then a day ferry home for Palm SUnday weekend.

Christmas Crazy I pinned 4 stocking pallet projects to my Christmas Pinterest board. The one I'm working on uses the whole pallet. At the top it's says 'And the Stockings were hung...' And has hooks for the stockings. A strand of white lights weaved in and out of the pallet boards would really set it off. I also pinned some that require cutting of the pallets. I actually like the idea of not painting the boards. It makes it look rustic. Rustic is my thing! :treegifts:
