My Cookie Baking Christmas Tree

This basket on the vintage scale on the tea cart in my kitchen

is usually filled with red apples.  But everyone needs a little 

Christmas in the kitchen ~ me especially!  I spend so much time

in my kitchen that I want it to have some Christmas spirit there too.  

So I popped in a little Christmas tree and decorated it with 

gingerbread men, cookie cutters and holiday spatulas.  

It's been tweaked alright.

Did I ever show you this little vintage flour sifter?  It holds two cups of

flour max.  At least that's what the measure reads, but honestly, it

looks more like one cup to me.  Whatever, it's cute and I love it and

I just want to be able to look at it because it makes me smile!

I have so much to do these days that I feel like I will need

a spa day very soon.  I just spent four full  hours shopping with my

mom yesterday and she wore me out!  She was armed with a 

stack full of coupons and away we went.  

After power shopping through three stores, we hit the market.

I was not sure I would be able to load everything into the back of

the Mini Cooper, but let me tell you, that Mini is mighty and 

everything arrived home safe and sound.  By the way, the Mini is

named Beatrix, after Beatrix Potter of course!

Here it is Monday afternoon.  Before I go back to work, I am 

brewing a cup of tea, putting up my feet for a bit and joining ~
