Loved reading your comments for the cookie giveaway. A few of you touched on my dream holiday vacation ~ Christmas in NYC with my entire family, both sides. I'd like to get several suites for all of us (the Plaza hotel would be perfect) and just enjoy eating and drinking and laughing because everyone is nuts... though the love is undeniable. Oh, and if not NYC than Ireland. How's that for dreaming? The lucky winner said she'd prefer to stay home at Christmas... "but home with snow would be fun!"
Yay! Gail wins the little box of cookies (send me your address and I'll ship 'em right out!) but I'd like to mention I'll be selling a handful of kits in my etsy shop, so you can make your own! The kits will include pre-cut cookie shapes, pre-cut frosting in pink, white, and chocolate, an assortment of "sprinkle" beads, polyfill, and floss. All you'll need is a couple of needles and thread, a bit of relaxing time, and a cup of hot cocoa!
I hope to have these in the shop on Monday. Another item that might go in (if I can bear to part with it), is this little winter pillow I finally finished up today. Really I was just trying to see if my sewing machine missed me too... so I picked out an easy project (I did the embroidery a year ago) and sat down with my old friend for a few stitches... voila!
Well, I'm off to celebrate my most favoritest boy in the whole world... who is 6 today! Happy Birthday, Nicholas!!!
And, lastly, Happy Friday faves!
