WRAPPING UP AND PUTTING A BOW ON IT!

CHRISTMAS IS 5 DAYS AWAY! I hope you have been able to get your shopping, prepping, cooking, etc. done according to your schedule. No two people approach holidays the same and that is okay. As long as the job gets done—you get a star!
I always like to reflect when this time of year comes along. I usually look at NEW YEAR’S as focusing on the future, but only of what I can control! We all know that predicting the future is not a talent in our hands!
I find as I age, things shift in value and importance. I do know that my CHRISTMAS LIST for myself gets shorter and the things that I really want, CAN’T BE BOUGHT!
Growing up, I remember a plaque, that I would see, but only as I got older, did I read it with more understanding. It goes like this:

THE HOLIDAY TO-DO LIST:
1-INSTEAD OF BUY PRESENTS-BE PRESENTS!
2-INSTEAD OF WRAPPING GIFTS-WRAP SOMEONE IN A BIG HUG!
3-INSTEAD OF SENDING GIFTS-SEND PEACE!
4-INSTEAD OF SHOPPING FOR FOOD-DONATE FOOD TO THE LESS FORTUNATE!
5-INSTEAD OF SEEING THE HOLIDAY LIGHTS-BE THE LIGHT FOR SOMEONE IN NEED!

My Christmas wish for all you FOODIES is that you are surrounded by family and friends and always count your BLESSINGS! Remember to reach out to those who may be alone or unable to get around. This is what will be the best gift you can give and receive! Remember-FAITH MAKES THINGS POSSIBLE NOT EASY!

“DON’T LET THE PAST CLOUD YOUR FUTURE AND RUIN YOUR PRESENT!”

MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

Remember I will be back next year on MONDAY, JANUARY 7TH! You know the drill—I will be posting all my holiday activities. Feel free to drop in and see what festivities are happening!
