Just a short Christmas Blog post!

 Not much happening here but Christmas preparations!  It snowed and it's beautiful here...looks like Christmas for sure.  Snow makes everything more quiet I think.  Buffers the sound of the city.  


I made fudge for a christmas party, froze some for us for Christmas dinner, gave some to a nice neighbor, and we ate a lot.  I love to make Miss Eisenhower's Million Dollar Fudge!  Goes a long ways!!


I finally finished this cross stitch quilt before going to the party for a young lady and had just enough time to wash, dry, and wrap.  Forgot to take a picture but here is the picture that it came with.   So glad it's done and I want to wait a long while before I attempt something like this again.  Many hours of work but she loved it!  

How's your Christmas preparations going along?
