ScrapTiffany's Thrifty Thursday
It's Thrifty Thursday today on the ScrapTiffany blog and it was my turn to post. I wrote about how I got thrifty with my Thickers. Here's a peek....
Head on over to ScrapTiffany to see the rest.
ScrapTiffany Monday
Chocolate Mint M&M Cookies
Christmas, Weekend Round Up and a Turkey
(p.s. the picture for the frame is being printed today to go with the Christmas theme)
Yes, we put up our tree and decorations the weekend before Thanksgiving. I have to work the Friday after Turkey Day and we host the meal every year. So several years ago we stopped trying to do it all after Thanksgiving and moved the inside decorating to a week before. I have a few finishing touches to add after a trip to the store, so I will share some more photos soon.
It was sad putting this away.
As we head into the home stretch for my two favorite holidays of the year, our challenge at ScrapTiffany this week was Food/Recipes. So on honor of the big bird I'll be cooking later this week, I featured Turkey My Way. I have perfected my bird over the past 15 years that I have been the holiday host. And I am pretty proud of it.
I'll give you two of my secrets, a fresh organic turkey and Reynolds Oven Bags. The rest is my secret, ;)
Birthday Boy Weekend & ScrapTiffany Monday
Last week got away from me, and I didn't get a chance to post the winner for my drawing from the ScrapTiffany Holiday Blog Hop. So without further delay the winner is (as picked by Random.org)... Scrapfaire said...
2 Years Ago Today....
ScrapTiffany Holiday Blog Hop
Happy November!
We had a very busy and very fun weekend with all the Halloween festivities. I baked pumpkin spice cupcakes and burned sugar cookies on Saturday morning.
We went to the pumpkin patch at Schnepf Farms
And played in the train park at the farm
We decorated the burned sugar cookies. Nicholas likes to decorate but doesn't like to eat cookies with frosting on them. So Mike will eat those, and I set aside the cookies I did not burn for Nicholas to eat, sans frosting.
I carved the pumpkin and Nicholas had a chat with him
The boys dressed up in their costumes
Jackson really didn't like his at first, but he got comfortable as the night wore on
And went trick or treating, we made it through 4 blocks in our neighborhood. One more than last year.
Then came home and checked out our haul (and maybe had a pack or two of M&M's.
This week at ScrapTiffany was a Color Challenge. The colors worked well with my October Mosh Posh kit. The title came from a song they sang on Glee while I was making this page.
Wednesday is my turn at the ScrapTiffany blog and I have something fun to share for fall.
And next week is our Blog Hop at ScrapTiffany. So check back next Monday and Tuesday for some Holiday inspiration and a chance to win some goodies.
Also, the design team at ScrapTiffany was asked to participate in the Hippity Hoppity Blog Hop as well. So check us out next week over on the ScrapTiffany blog.
