We can't believe we have had another snow storm. So whats to do on these cold winter nights and days. We certainly can't hibernate like the bears but we can get cozy and warm in our houses and prepare our homes for the Christmas season. Unfortunately we will not have the wonderful smells in the house from all the cookie baking as we are taking this year off from all of that. We have decided that we do not need all those wonderful goodies to eat as we are trying to watch very carefully how much sweets to inbibe on. Doesn't sound like much fun but we will suffer through it with lots of nuts (very good for you) and lots of wonderful fruits. As you can guess we are doing this since my Husband needs to take better care of himself (which we have always done) but he is having some heart problems and we do not want them to get worse. So enjoy those wonderful cookies and breads and we will be thinking of you and praying that you will have a wonderful Christmas holiday.
