There has been quite a bit going on at my house. There has been baking:
Have any of you ever made the Rolo Pretzel Delights? They are so easy to do. The most time consuming part is unwrapping those little Rolo candies. After they come out of the oven you are supposed to push a pecan on top or another pretzel. I used pecan halves and also:
Reeses Pieces! So yummy. I made 450 of these little gems. Hopefully there will still be some left when Christmas rolls around.
All the Chex Mix is completed (nuts and bolts) and today will be the second time to marinate the fruit cake. Still have a few more recipes to bake and it will happen.
There was decorating happening too:
The tree got done. I have it going between white lights and multi colored lights.
When I went to water my plants today, I saw this:
This little cactus was given to me last year by my daughter. It was just 2 stems with 3 leaves on each stem. I babied it and loved on it for the past 8 months. Today I see it has buds ready to bust open. I am so excited.
I am still working on the interior decorations and probably will be for a while. My vertigo reared it's ugly head again yesterday which has put the brakes on doing too much until it goes away. I am halfway done decorating so, hopefully after my physical therapy appointment next week, I will be ready to complete it.
Since I am kind of limited as to what I can do comfortably, my sweater is getting lots of attention. So, it's not all bad.
Until next time........................................................
Your decorations are gorgeous and you both do a beautiful job! That's a lot of work! I make those Rolo pretzel candies and they are so good! I like your idea of the Rolo sandwiched between 2 pretzels. I my one grandson is allergic to nuts so I could make those for him. Thanks for the idea. I'm so sorry about your vertigo. I hope it leaves....soon! Your tree looks beautiful.
