1. It's been eleven days... since I have sat down at my computer...when life get hectic...the computer gets dusty...

2. I have been busy and feeling exhausted ..posting ideas leave me....and it is hard to get back into it! At times like this I wonder...why I really have a blog... do you feel like that...and what do you do to get it going again?

3. It was was Grandson Two birthday last week. Fifteen years old!!

Blogging.... Friends. . .

It has been about 2 years since I  started blogging. 

The one thing that keeps me blogging is all the great people I meet! 

Know you don't meet them face to face...

 it would be great to be able to do that sometime...

but you hear about their lives and a friendship does form.

This past week I got mail from a blogger friend!

A bottle of Maple Syrup....

Syrup that you can see how and where it came from...

check this out!!(click here)

How exciting to be able to make your own maple syrup!!

We tried on French Toast....

hubby said...

"This is the best syrup I have ever tasted!"

It was delicious...Thank you friend!!

Friendship

Christmas is the perfect time to get together with friends.  

Years ago I received this book...from a friend!

I invited my friends for Tea...in Celebration of our Friendship!

I enjoy readying the rooms...

We all had a wonderful time eating, drinking tea and visiting....

Why is it....we don't do this more often?

Do you find you do more entertaining at 

Christmas than any other time of the year?
