Time to make Aunt Emma's fruitcake receipe. A family favorite. This year I added some pecans. It is fun to give them to special friends and family. I treasure this old old receipe. Next up is another family favorite cookie "no names". We have always called them that because we don't know the name. I have made these since the boys were young. This year I hope to have my granddaughters helping me make them.
We always vow to not get a tree too large and we always get a tree too large. This is my favorite kind of tree, Frazier Fur. With lots of room for ornaments and cats to explore. Lizzie seems to be spending the most time around the tree.
I love creating things. I love to use vintage materials when I can. I like playing with paper, paints, wire, fabrics, beads, I guess this list could go on forever really. One of my most favorite things to do is soldering. I love spending all day in my studio.
I enjoy spending time with my family and being with my grandchildren. Reading and learning. I love nature and being out doors.
