Every Thanksgiving it is my tradition to cut some branches off my neighbor's pine tree (LOL...) and make myself a wreath. Last year I forgot. And when I finally remembered I decided I just didn't care. I could live without a wreath. This year I am not feeling as apathetic although I admit I have no patience for Christmas music on the radio lately. Donning garden shears I attacked the tree with new-found vigor. I even added some holly from my holly tree:
I didn't stop there! Hmmm...time to dig out the Christmas tree. It's fake and small. I haven't set it up for years because it just seems like such a waste of energy, but I did it anyway. Not sure what is possessing me.
Then I went to the Black Friday sales and bought some new Christmas lights. I love Christmas lights and they were cheap:
Oddly enough, I'm even considering making Christmas cookies this year. It might be dangerous. I used to make decorated sugar cookies and give them away, but since starting the gluten-, sugar-, dairy-free diet, I fear I wouldn't have the willpower. We'll see.
I like your 'enthusiasm'!
ReplyDeleteHaha!
I'm trying. It's waivering! LOL I am eager to make some cookies...
DeleteMake cashew bread instead! Haha!
DeleteOr cashew cookies.
The only reason you are suggesting cashew bread is because you don't know how much of it I have eaten!!!! And it's expensive. I think it costs at least $7-$8 for just the cashews. I'm trying to stay away from it for a while because I have no willpower. Yum. I found a recipe for gluten-free gingerbread cookies I'm going to try.
