Now that things are starting to look like fall around here
and the long weekend is over
and the turkey is all gone (or will be after I make turkey pot pies for dinner tonight)
it's time to move on to Christmas =)
we bought a Christmas tree that was almost longer than our car and received many strange looks from the locals (some children even pointed and laughed and grown adults almost got ran over/feel off their bikes because they were distracted by our strange American traditions...next year, I'm taking a video of all the gawkers!)
put out the few decorations we do have (the beautiful flowers were a hostess gift for Thanksgiving. thanks Melissa!)

As for me, a few things I wouldn't mind seeing under my Christmas tree this year:
1. a paella pan
2. a panini press
3. a flash for my camera
4. this FABULOUS necklace (with the diamond moved to the lower left corner)
5. since my computer is on it's last leg, a MacBook
Love that first picture, so neat!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes. Macbooks are the best! Hope Santa is kind to you :)
I just saw those necklaces last week...and I thought Oxford was in the perfect spot for the stone!! lol :-)
ReplyDeletegreat wish list! just wanted to let you know that I tried your turkey recipe and it was FANTASTIC. My first turkey was a hit! Definitely using this recipe from here on out, so thanks!
ReplyDeleteOoh, thanks for the link to those necklaces. I totally want an Illinois one!
ReplyDeleteAs the ball is about to drop, the vendor calls out, “no extra bets,” and passes his or her hand over the desk. Wherever the ball lands, the vendor will mark the number, clear the desk of losing bets and pay winning bet.
