Thanksgiving Tradition. 11-24-11. Finished transforming our Elf on the Shelf Rudy into.." Holly", Rudy's sister. She's sweet and a bit shy, yet mischieivous too- Santa explains here in his letter.. Rudy had a cold, just like O and Zoe right now.. so he sent "Holly" Rudy's sister. Tradition here, is that Rudy arrives on Thanksgiving.. usually late in the day. What fun it was to have my own little elf helper this year, writing the letter, and preparing the " AirMail" package loaded with glitter snow to surprise her little sister.
Grateful for cool weather in Scottsdale. Cozy. Made this Tuscan Soup. Added fresh chopped tomatoes, arugula and parmesan. And no, my girls didn't join us. Zoe had cut spaghetti, and O- tortellini. At least we all shared the crusty french bread.. 11-8-11
Grateful for.. Rain.. Roses and Rosemary. Comforts of Home. 11-5-11
Burger Night- Oven Baked Fries from Annie Eats. AMAZING. 11-2-11
