Christmas 2016

I've been wondering...can Santa Claus be bribed?

nope, nooo, niet, nay, not, untuh, pffft.


I have tried.

 

[CaraBou]

nope, nooo, niet, nay, not, untuh, pffft.

I have tried.

You just aren't offering the right cookies.

 

[Hazel]

nope, nooo, niet, nay, not, untuh, pffft.


I have tried.

I'm doomed...unless I can get CaraBou's cookie recipe.

16 now Hazel.

 

[Hazel]

Oooh! That's a pretty gif. Shiny.

I'm doomed...unless I can get CaraBou's cookie recipe.

Don't look at me; mine are untested. My husband snarfs them long before the reindeer land. He'll eat anything with sugar and chocolate!

Only 3 sleeps to go. :smalltree::smalltree::smalltree:

Ahh, you know that you have reached adulthood when Christmas feels more like a deadline than anything else.

Holy cow! So much to do not much time to get it done.

I gave up. My co-workers are getting New Year's goodie bags instead of Christmas ones. Most of the stuff is made, but I still need more lotion, and the wire on my new shrink wrapper broke.

I'm not ready yet!
One day to go before the visitors arrive. Aghhhjjj...

I was thinking of making shawls and scarves for family and friends for Christmas, but ran out of time. Now they're getting "sticks, string and DIY" instead. My knitters are gonna love that. The not-knitters, not so much.

I will just start planning for next year...now

I have the FOs, so if I make the soaps within the first half of the year, they will have a nice long cure.
And in the mean time I can gather yarn for knitted wash cloths or something else, experiment with lipbalm ingredients, learn how to not make my otherwise perfect body butter seperate, plan giftwrapping and so on.

Next year, I swear I will have *my* idea of the perfect christmas gift bag realized.

On another note, I can definitely feel the rush towards christmas on other craft sites I visit
Where there is usually a busy chatter on the boards, there is now an eery silence as everyone tries to scramble to make that last gift and do last minute christmas prepping.

The kids and dogs just left.
We did Christmas early this year.
Nice to see them when they come to visit and nice to have the quiet house back when they leave.

Here's hoping you all have as merry a Christmas as we have enjoyed here!

It's here and the day is turning into evening. It's 29C and a cool breeze happening.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS DAY. :santa:

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! Have a wonderful day!
