What is Coming???

CHRISTMAS!

I woke up this morning and realized that Christmas is almost here and I have no time.
Someone ask me last night when was I going to do candy this year, now in my mind for some reason I thought I had more time. Make candy, I havn't even planned what I'm making this year. For some reason everone whats to know when.
So at 5:30 this morning I woke up realized I have purses to finish, Villages to put up, alittle bit of shopping to finish up. Not to mention Thanksgiving menu to get ready. Then church year end banquet and finally our family Christmas.

I cook alot. We always do Thanksgiving with DH's family. His mother is 83 and thats when his family gets together. Don't sound like much I know but he is 1of 9 kids. Last count there is at least 75 people in his immediate family.We rent a community center.
Now that sounds like alot of food and it is but theres some who don't cook and so there are others like me that cooks alot. For some reason I never bring anything home.
This year I was going to the trailer the day before since its about 1 1/2 hours closer, but that will limit what I bring.
As of now its, ham, potatoe salad, some kind of bean, apple pie dessert and DH wants a lemon Lush. He may have to wait. The apple pie dessert is not a pie.You use 3 cans of apple pie filling, cake mix, butter and nuts. I've been told that it taste like Cracker Barrel's apple dumpling.

As for the candy, of course you have to do, Martha Washington, Peanut Butter Balls, Toffee, Marcoons,the rest is always a toss up.

We were going to try to have the other house set up before Christmas with out Kids but unless theres some time that I don't know about it don't look good.

Enough of that, today its to the sewing room and I may start pulling the villages down from the attic.

And I thought I was bored!
