food, crochet, merriment
My new day planner for 2026 is a rare kind of inspiring for me–and I’m not sure why exactly. I mean…I’ve had dozens of dayplanners–right? This one looks mystical and magical and full of fairy sparkles–which, of course is a big deal and very, VERY important…
but I’m still not quite sure why I feel like something is different.
It could be this.
Let’s go.
It’s become an incredible tradition to have Fondue on New Year’s Eve. Cheese and Chocolate to satisfy all the sweet and savory cravings of every single soul on this night–the last night of 2025.
We are each tasked with bringing at least one sweet and one savory dipper. My job is to show up with a boatload of pretzel bites…which I did. Thanks for the help Jessica & Rhen. With our family ever expanding, the dippers are becoming more and more amazing. Strawberries, cheesecake bites, Little Smokies, pretzels, potatoes, apples, pumkin bread…and it goes on and onnnn!!
One of the best nights of the year!!
Happy New Year everyone!!
Lyrics by Light Shine University
Another beautiful year ahead with all these lovely people.
I am soooo blessed.
Happy New Year Friends!
If you were anywhere near us around New Year’s I would have, no doubt, invited you…
to work on a lovely puzzle which was simply perfect for the occasion.
Happy people, fun food and fireworks.
Sounds like real life to me.
Heh, heh.
Happy New Year everyone!!

For anyone who doesn’t think time is going by SO much more quickly than ever before in human history…
I would say, DIDN”T WE JUST DO ALL THIS AWESOME STUFF?!!
Not, complaining, mind you. I mean, I’ll take any chance I can get to hang out with all these cool people–playing games…
working puzzles…
eating April’s INCREDIBLE Cheese fondue…
or just sitting quietly on the carpet with a couple of fan girls.
But so help me, I was just getting used to writing 2022–kinda liked it actually- very fun and curly–and now, forget about it. Start practicing your 3’s.
My girl even set me up, nice and slick with a popper of my own. I don’t really ever pull those strings because….well, you know….they POP. And I don’t like that. Just sit still and mind your own business. No popping.
But in an effort to be a good sport–I tried it this year. Being the ridiculous novice that I am–I held onto the wrong part so when I pulled the string, it popped in my hand instead of wherever else it’s suppose to pop.
OWWWWW!
Serves me right. I knew it was an evil popper when I picked it up.
I think Miss Chompy knew too. Haha.
Happy New Year Everyone!!
wake me at noon.
