Merry Christmas!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!  I've been so busy this month that I haven't been able to blog as much as I would like...  I have so many projects & ideas bouncing around in my head and am so excited for life to slow down in January so I have more free time on my hands.

 On another note, Santa was good to me this year and I am so excited about a few of the gifts I received.  Mostly because they are going to help me with my blogging/vlogging.  

 Notable items :)

 PowerShot Pro Electric Staple & Nail Gun 

KitchenAid Mixer in Pistachio Green

GorillaPod by Joby for my digital camera

& a Canon HD Video Camcorder (VIXIA HV40)

wtih a wide angle adapter lens

And... a new sewing machine from my mom has been discussed. 

( my Kenmore from 1974 just isn't cutting it anymore)

such a beauty. <3

christmas @ starbucks.

I love Starbucks.  I love it.  I love it.  I love it.

 I don't care what anyone says about it being corporate & mass produced...

 It is delicious and they have so many options for me to pick from. Especially around the holidays!

Lately, to spice things up, I've been adding 2 (they usually use 4) pumps of the caramel brulee syrup to my triple grande soy lattee. (incase anyone wants to bring me coffee)

AND they have free music.  This weeks free download is She & Him - I'll Be Home For Christmas 

What's not to love?

Tree Time.

Thanksgiving is OVER :(

Tomorrow they are lighting the tree at Rockefellar Center so...

Now!!! is the appropriate time to buy a christmas tree.

I now realize that  this isn't Christmas Vacation... not at all. but still a great photo. it stays.
