Christmas Cheer For All

So, all week I've used every spare moment of my time to do Christmas baking

which isn't a negative thing, I really like baking!

Tonight I was finally all done! I had baked 5 different items and they looked delicious!

Then I packaged them all up in pretty tins and cookie bags.

Then I loaded them all up in a sled, bundled myself up and went all over town

delivering Christmas cheer to one and all!

I was almost done when I heard something behind me, it was a dog.

This isn't unusual; there's a lot of dogs roaming free in this town.

I told it to go away but it continued to follow me at a safe distance.

My next stop wasn't home so I was standing outside his house thinking when said dog approached me.

Against my better judgment I put out my hand and encouraged the dog to come closer for a pat on the head.

Miiiistaaaaaaaaake!

As I continued on my way I felt a tug behind me, on my sled.

I turned around and wouldn't you know it, that sneaky dog was stealing one of my

cookie packages!

I chased after it yelling, "STOP!"

The cookie bag went flying, landing on the street and sliding several inches.

I picked up the cookie bag, inspected everything and gave that crazy dog a stern look.

I then proceeded to pick up my entire sled and carry it home, dog trailing along behind me.

I really hope someone was watching out their window because

I'm sure they would have been entertained!

This is my happy face...:D

I can't even explain how excited I am!

I'm going to Debbie's for New Years!!

We havn't seen each other since July, that's a long time.

I can hardly sit still!

Guess what, guess what, guess what?!?!?!

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeahooooooooooo!

Pick of the Week...

In the spirit of all things Christmas why don't you go ahead and click here

to watch a funny video of some guys singing

many, many Christmas songs.

The guy laughing like the count just adds to it really.

Pick of the Week...

On Saturday after a full day of emptying my wallet in the beginnings of the tradition that is giving gifts at Christmas I went to "Voyage of the Dawn Treader"

It. Was. Fabulous.

I didn't have very high expectations after Prince Caspian and all the creative licence that was used there. However, the third installment in the beloved classic series penned by C.S. Lewis was so well done! I was pleased and amazed. I plan on watching it in theatres again, and I never do that.

Go watch it!

Somehow, somewhere along the line I became one of those people.

You know the type,

The ones who have to have their CD's organized according to genre

and their cups placed just so in the cupboard?

Only I don't do those kinds of things.

I'm more the type who does dishes in the same order every single time.

[First plates (but make sure the cutlery is already in the water) then bowls, then cups, then sharps, then cutlery, then anything else in order of cleanest to grossest.]

and also who tries to make things fit together just so when I put them away in a box.

I'm not sure how that happened.

So anyway, today in the fight against that I went against the grain,

I opened a chip bag upside down.

It drove me crazy for the first minute but then I got over it!

So maybe I'm not so bad after all...

Pick of the week...

Once upon a time I was watching funny videos on youtube

and then I decided that I wanted to watch the music video for "Fireflies"

So I did.

On the side where they have all those 'suggestions' videos I saw a cover for the song

It looked interesting so I clicked on it.

My life has not been the same since.

Ok, so maybe that was a bit dramatic but I discovered some very talented people.

That was the first youtube channel I ever subscribed to.

Their names are Kurt Hugo Schneider and Sam Tsui and they are aaaamazing! I can even ignore all the stupid songs they cover because they are just that talented!

Find Kurt's youtube channel... HERE

And now here's a couple of my fav videos from them.

my 100th post?!?

I came on here to blog about...well nothing really.
You see I was cruising through some blogs that I read on a regular basis and it came to my attention that the blogger world is bigger then I even knew!
Did you know that some people make money from their blogging?
How can I get a piece of that action?!
Also I've noticed that every ones blogs are waaaaay cooler then mine...
button sharing, completely original buttons to navigate said blogs with, original photography for their banner...
How do you guys all do that??
I can see in my head how I want my blog to look but for the life of me I don't know how to make it happen.
That's not it though, here I thought that blogs were something that you shared with your friends and family so they could either a) be updated about your life or b) be entertained by your witty antics. Apparently though there are blogs out there that have thousands of followers...some that are strangers even! It becomes somewhat of a community.

So anyway, that was all going through my mind so I came to blog about it.
Then I saw that I had written 99 blogs thus far.
and I thought, "This is my 100th blog! It should be something fantastic, something mind blowing, something worthy of being the 100th!"

But all I could think about was these things I realized about blogging.

You see, this is why I don't have a thousand strangers following my blog, waiting for what amazing thing I'll think up next.

*Oh and just so you know, I am very thankful for my 5 followers! You guys rock!
