Christmas Kitchen

Hi Everyone, It has taken me  f-o-r-e-v-e-r  to get my Christmas  decorating act together. Thanksgiving at my house, then my daughter's 10th birthday  party put me a little behind. Not to mention band concerts, basketball games, shopping and  all the other things that go on this time of year. You all know what I'm talking about, right?  I have mostly pictures from my kitchen today and I will also share my favorite holiday decoration. These are salt & pepper shakers ~ aren't they little cutie pies? A little candy cane bouquet! I kept things fairly simple in some areas by just adding in a little more green.  A little "button art" on the wall by the fridge. In the picture below you can catch a peek of my favorite decoration this year ~ do you see it? I love, love, love this window frame. A bought it a couple months ago and have been saving it for Christmas.   I spent a lot of time

A Favorite Thing

A couple days ago I saw that Nesting Place is having a  Favorite Things  linky party.   It should be something small and simple that costs less than $30.00. Nothing really jumped to mind at the time but when I was making my daughter's birthday cake, I thought of something. It's this white silicone spatula from Crate&Barrel. I have had it for probably 2 years and I use it ALL THE TIME. I love that it's one piece and has a long handle. It's just so handy and easy to wash. It costs $3.95 and here is the link at Crate&Barrel in case you're just dying to immediately  order one! : ) (In case you're wondering, Crate&Barrel is not paying me to say this but if they want to, that would be ok with me! : )  So that's it for my favorite thing.   If you have a favorite thing, come on over and join the party at Nesting Place ! ~ JoAnne
