Holiday decorating pictures! I an feeling the need to revamp some Christmas decorations, but we are putting our house up for sale HOPEFULLY before the spring. So it would be better to wait for my new space.

I would.....

LOVE this table for a little studio space... if I had space for a little studio. Aaahhh, perhaps one day!

Happy Thanksgiving

This year I hosted Thanksgiving. I made a killer turkey + even my picky niece declared that my turkey was delicious! One bummer [besides my gravy] is that my mom was sick + unable to come. I sent a care-package to her with a good dinner + desserts. A couple pics of the day...

flashback!

Last night was my 20 year grade school reunion. It was so great to see friends that I haven't seen in years, yet spent so much time with growing up. I didn't get too many pictures [a couple are blurry + eyes are closed], but I like this one of me, my friends Chris + Cathy.... I get to see Chris when I can, but this is the first time I have seen Cathy for 15 or more years. She is just as sweet + wonderful as I remember!

froyo?

I have been working hard to get in better health/shape/weight... taking vitamins, eating more veggies + less baked goods + even getting to the gym on a regular basis [well, that needs a bit more work:)] I am down a jean size which feels GREAT!

At school the other day, a co-worker walked by with a white cup filled with almonds + strawberries. I asked. She answered.... A low-fat, low-sugar frozen yogurt from Saxby's down the street. I had to give it a try. It was nice + warm in the Philly area, so a good time for a cool treat.

Verdict... worth it! It was tangy rather than sweet. I got the small with berries + sliced almonds, rather than chocolate or coconut. It would be more fun to have a friend to enjoy one with, so any takers?
