A Christmas Wish

 
 
Has it really been a month since I last posted? Please forgive me and I owe a bunch of emails to people and those are coming over the next few days. Work has kept me busy nonstop, tis the season! But I’ve stop for the next week to enjoy this wonderful season. We have been busy decorating our home with all natural things and this mantel was hugely inspiring with it’s sugared pomegranates and live trees.
 

 
I’ve dragged out my antique mercury glass……
 
 
And wrapped the gifts........
 

 
 Now it's time to get some serious baking accomplished!
 


Before I go have some fun in the kitchen I wanted to take this moment to wish each and every one of you both new and old followers a Happy and Joyous Holiday Season!
 
Enjoy the magic of the Season!
 
XXXOOO!

  1. Debra,
    I am heading out to do Christmas shopping! LOL! My problem is that I get so excited when I buy someone a gift that I give it to them right away...then I have to buy more!
    I love the mercury glass and teal ornaments...love! very time I see something I love on Pinterest I scroll down to find out that it was YOU who posted it!
    I mentioned you in my "Solstice" post. You'll see why if you have a chance to look!
    Remember, you are always welcome here if you come to visit Aurora!

    Merry CHRISTMAS!

    Lovely images. I love the mantle and the candles in the little pots. If the picture of the brownies is yours, how do you round the corners of them? I love the way they look.
    Enjoy your holiday with family and friends. Your blog always entertains and inspires, thank you.
