I remember as a kid being so excited to go to the end of the long driveway to see what might be in our mailbox each day in December. I remember getting hand full of cards some days and it was exciting… Continue reading Why I still make time for Christmas cards

Its not Fall unless you have a Caramel Apple. Well, that’s at least my philosophy!I have been making them for years, and every year I get family and friends asking when they can get theirs.
