Well kids, times are tough all over. Fortunately, I can cook, and I'm a bit of a pack rat. This year, the kids and family are all getting a haul from my kitchen and closet, with the only new stuff going to my neice and nephew, bought with the Barnes and Noble gift certificate I got from mom. I got something for myself too though! Skippyjon Jones is the most adorable kids' character with a series of little adventure books, and Zen Shorts is a kids' book with old zen fables retold and beautifully illustrated. The other pics are pralines, homemade jewelry and closet schwag, and some lovely shots of the trees in front of a local Korean church on a wet drippy morning. I just loved the simple, pretty, colorful decorations and thought they looked especially nice in the gray morning fog, so I snapped them on the way to the bus stop.
Also, please check out the newest additions to my link list--Tiki Monkey and Beatsville!
Merry Christmas, Happy Closet Shopping and Happy New Year!
