hostess with the mostess.

i read this post about being a good hostess so i've been dying to make a basket for my next guest.

well, this weekend my mom and grandma are coming to go christmas shopping and here's what i laid out for them.

the basket has lotion, a pedicure kit, and a loofah for both of them.  then there is candy [york peppermint patties, rolos, mentos, orbit gum].

i'm so excited :)

now, if only i could get a new comforter.

profession.

i think worker man found a new profession tonight.



i almost lost my foot 

[well, close enough]. 
 

and worker man totally handled it.


check out his skillz [yes, i just used the word skillz...yes, with a z -- that's how good he was].

i'm still limping and believe me, i plan to milk it for all it's worth.

lesson.

note to self:

when your forehead...

...looks like a connect the dots board....

probably shouldn't....

wear your hair pulled back.

lesson learned.

updated to add:  i did this post last night. but when i looked at it this morning i realized two things.  number one, i do not...i repeat i do not wear black eye shadow. promise.  i was using my camera on my mac and it does weird shadow things.  and number two, i had just gotten done working out.  i wore my hair like that to work but i forgot to take pictures before i worked out.  that is the reason for it looking so scraggly.  well, at least i hope that's the reason it looks so bad. 

cinnamon honey butter.

tonight i made darby's cinnamon honey butter.

seriously, it was so easy.

and it tastes so so good.

i made it for neighbors and of course a jar for our house.  

i definitely recommend it :)
