it's that time of year again...

I am reminded daily that Christmas is almost here. I took the boys to go see Santa last weekend. But, I've barely begun my shopping and annual gift-making efforts. I turned my kitchen into a fudge-making factory this morning. Only the peanut butter fudge is done (chocolate mint fudge is on tap for tomorrow!) but it tastes delicious. I'm envious of the coworkers, friends and neighbors that we're giving it to!

I took a time out from the kitchen this afternoon to watch the movie Julie & Julia (which came highly recommended by my parents). Now I'm completely reinspired and hoping to use the newfound inspiration to shape my 2010 News Years Resolutions. I've had a lot of luck the last few years in actually achieving my goals so the pressure is on. What will I come up with next? I'll let you know when it's finalized!
