Hubs and I decided we'd cut back a bit on all the holiday sweets, as the extra calories can easily get out of control.

So, what does he bring home last night -- a box of lemon croissants! :cautious:

Made coffee this morning, and reached in the frig for a small container of yogurt, for breakfast. Put it back. (Now I have lemon all over my mouth . . . :hungry: ) Oops . . . :hilarious:

I try hard not to be a downer this time of the year, but since my family grew up and everyone went their separate ways, this time of year is always depressing even though I am close to my kids/grandkids, it just isn't the same.

Last night I watched the Dick Van D yke, 98 years of Magic and wondered how he can be so joyous at 98 years old. It was touching and emotional. When they had the part with "Hushabye Mountain and they did a closeup of Dick you could see a tear in his eye. Had one in mine too. Those of us coming up in years could see a whole different meaning and message in the song. Or maybe it was just me.

Being married to his 52 year old wife perhaps keeps DVD young.

Merry Christmas Eve, everyone!

It's amateur hour in Minnie's kitchen! :joyfull: Baked sugar cookies, cut out shapes, and attempted to decorate them.

Per the photo below --
The man cookie in the lower right looks intoxicated. The woman cookie next to him is choking on her white scarf. Behind her is Santa with his pack of toys, but you'd never recognize him. There's also some white angels, but can't say they look particularly heavenly. :p (The Christmas trees only, are somewhat identifiable.)

Oh, all these were the "best" of the bunch -- you should have seen the others I did! :hilarious: :hilarious:

They are very good. Cookies are even hard for me to decorate with icing. Those tubes of icing are hard to control.
Hubby said to tell you that you should have seen his gingerbread house last year. 😊 Yours look better.
