So how’s it going? Are you staying ahead of the Christmas Tide? Keeping up with the shopping and the wrapping and the decorating and the baking and the hosting and the pageants and the concerts?

It’s crazy isn’t it? This is the second year in a row that I’ve promised myself an afternoon at the Singing Christmas Tree at the Keller only to miss it almost before I even realize it’s started!! I AM proud to say though that I got my tree up right on time and even managed to make chocolate covered cherries this weekend! My mom and I started a tradition of making them 5 years ago or so and we try to do it every year. The problem is that chocolate covered cherries have to sit in the fridge and “ripen” for like 6 weeks before you can actually eat them, so we almost never get them made in time for that to happen. So we end up eating them with the goo that’s supposed to be in the middle not really gooey, but more like frosting-texture. NOT that there’s anything wrong with that.

Chocolate covered cherries are the bomb.
