Christian & Alyssa, Braden & Dalton, in front of the Roanoke Christmas Tree. Last Friday night when we attended Dickens of a Christmas (see Monday's post)....I wonder how long they've been decorating this tree? I couldn't find anything on it.
Are you ready for this? Willy Nilly Time a la Christmas:
1) Back when Braden and Dalton were teency weency, I found the BEST recipe for Oatmeal Choc Chip cookies in one of the Southern Living Christmas books. I used to love those books and made sure I ordered one each year. Kind of been slacking in that department the past couple of Christmas's but I STILL make those cookies, which happen to be the EASIEST cookie recipe on the planet, plus they are Ashlyn's faves...you can find it HERE
2) When I was a kid, my Grandma Greer used to make Peanut Butter Fudge and these Peanut Butter Pinwheel thingy-majiggies. They were her specialty. They were scrumdiddlyumptious. Sadly my grandma passed away when I was in Jr. High, too young to have even thought about getting the recipe from her. BUT thenagger researcher that I am has led me to believe that these are quite possibly "Potato Candy" or "Peanut Butter Pinwheels"...Not being exactly sure, I am going to have to let my taste buds be the judge and try out these 3 recipes: recipe #1 , recipe numero dos , and numéro de la recette de trois ...thank you Google Translate ;)
3) Have you been to any of these Christmas light displays? Six Residential Streets With Amazing Christmas Lights
(There's a Candy Cane Lane listed in LA but I remember as a kid having a Candy Cane Lane in San Diego that we'd go see. I think they shut it down some time back though.)
4) Will you be having a white Christmas? We have a little snow heading our way Saturday but it doesn't look promising.
5) “Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before! What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!”
― Dr. Seuss, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!
