Holiday Season Again!

It's starting to actually feel like fall outside (a little). The weather recently in Abilene, TX has hovered in the 70's-mid-80's over the last two weeks and has been an amazing change of scenery. The normal temp is mid 90's but due to a freak cold front we have had some wonderfully cool days, thank goodness for that.

Few days ago I went out and picked up some art supply's and made a fall wreath, my mother and sister would be so proud. It actually turned out looking really nice (considering I didn't have a hot glue gun to use and had to substitute using super glue, I think I did rather well) considering that all supplies included I made the wreath for under $10, I feel like I did a pretty darn good job.

Today I am making O'Henry Bars, Tuxedo brownies, Sugar Cookies and maybe something else... haven't quite decided yet. I am in a cooking mood today for whatever reason, I think it's the cool weather and and realizing its mid October that's putting me in the 'holiday mood'.


This is the wreath that I made (for under $10) without any hot glue (PAIN!!)... just super glue, a little floral tape and some luck!!!


My amazing (made from scratch) Tuxedo Brownies! I added my own personal touch by chopping up chocolate chips  and sprinkling the shavings over the tops, sooo yummy. Can't wait to make more of these, I think I might make some mini ones for Halloween!
