Holiday Cheer
Oh yeah! The holidays are here! Happy Chanukah everyone! Tonight is the 7th night of Chanukah. In my family, it's tradition to receive a small gift on the first and last nights. I've been scrambling around for gifties for tomorrow night! I attended my cousin, Amie's jewelry and craft sale on Sunday. There were so many beautiful items displayed. I ended up buying myself a gift!!! Isn't that always the case? You have every intention of buying gifts for friends and family, then end up buying yourself a goodie.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh007Tm7ygXiPbDzv1XmFNjlq2YMrtWGeMH3BlVFpYeK6oak-itSRBcxcNg_8dj64a_BlGcjegyv8kVe90pGGFOiw7GAJo40OT-iM2x-KjmG2p7__fMa58WUQdnOclvA28S7djWcQ/s400/UnderTheTent.jpg)

On Saturday we attended our first holiday party of the season at Nancy's house. It was so festive. Nancy's decorations were great! Everyone brought special dishes to share. I was most impressed by the Reindeer-Peanut Butter cookies (above); Jackson Pollack brownies and that divine Honey-Baked ham! Yum. I contributed my "secret recipe" mac 'n cheese. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjANfop_PSwWE5nDbkzXiDDqgmJBTazBp5N5U4nmWJ8j0_98j-ylom5qS55ZiZ5B5QGbwYauAfL-9CyXeMB9RSV4NZ1sUnRcX9wp5-hPvBCzgg4v7IchX3rCe8YBywmrBaeGIxSbA/s400/JPollackBrownies.jpg)

I'm still working on holiday gifts for friends and family...crocheting and knitting away!

Mmmmmm...for taste alone I think I'd want to try those Jackson Pollock brownies - I've never met a brownie I didn't like. But the reindeer cookies win the cute factor prize!
I love that necklace! I did the same thing at a friend's jewelry party and took home 3 for me, 1 for each of them. This is how I ensure I'll have a good Christmas; buy myself what I want (within reason).
Happy holidays, Ellen!
