Short and sweet my friends. Whoo-Hoo it is almost Christmas. We are finishing up cookies and rocking to some great tunes from the 80s. Oh they take me back. You know I can still remember the song playing when I first kissed my hubby. "Pictures of You" by the Cure. Love that song!! Merry Christmas. You all have a wonderful time with family and friends.
Hi Elaine, I am making toffee (1st time). Hope it turns out OK. Merry Christmas to you and your family! xo
ReplyDeleteLovin' me some of The Cure! :D Great music. What kind of cookies are y'all baking? We baked Snicker Doodles for our luncheon.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, and thanks for hosting SSS!!!

ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember that song. I will have to look it up. I feel so bad. I don't remember DH and my first kiss!
Hi Elaine,
ReplyDeleteHope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!! Thanks for hosting!!
Hi Elaine! David and I love those tunes from the 80's too. We dated through the 80's and were married in '89. Such fun and happy times and I still love that music! Thanks so much for hosting this last party before Christmas. Wishing you and your family the happiest Christmas ever!!

Hope you have a terrific Christmas. Loved your broken candy story. Very poignant.
ReplyDeleteBut that shop keeper was a scrooge. Why couldn't he give those kids some UNBROKEN candy, too? Cheeze. People like that burn me up.
Anyway, your Gram was quite a woman. I'm sure she's sitting somewhere on a throne in heaven! Susan
Merry Christmas, Elaine! We have cookies too! Lots of Christmas activities going on....I love it!

Funny, I've had 80's music going on Pandora for about a week now. I was raising our kids during those days, so I guess it brings back good memories. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, my sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like your day has been filled with lots of happy moments gathered round in your kitchen. I can imagine the sweet smell of warm Christmas cookies and the joyous sounds of laughter.
Thank you, Elaine, for sharing a slice of your Sunny Simple Life with all of us!
