I prepared this blog yesterday afternoon so it would be done and ready for today and finished with before my visitors arrived for tea and evening festivities.
I got all the baking done in the morning, sausage rolls and mince pies once more and bread too this time. We`ll have had home cooked gammon ham, turkey and prawns with lots of salad and other yummy things, not to mention a divine cheesecake and gorgeous roulade for dessert.
Must get off that subject, food, as it`s making me hungry. Unbelievable really after all the food I managed to consume yesterday. It was so delicious though it would have been rude not to. That`s what my younger daughter always says and I have to say I agree with her.
Anyway, back on the subject of the blog, I keep digressing.
As we all know Sales are everywhere now but none so good as those on line. It`s that time of year that crafter`s look through their stock and decide what to keep making and what is going to end. Some, like me, are exploring other avenues and therefore marking down much of their stock quite drastically.
There is something about a New Year that makes us all take the time to think about the direction we want to go in. That`s not just creative folk either. At this time of year with Christmas over and New year looming many take a hard look at their lives and consider the direction of it and where they want to be at the same time next year.
There`s food for thought for you.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!
With the New year looming
folks wonder why they aren`t blooming
where their lives are going
and what seeds need to be sowing.
They wonder `am I happy and content
is this the way it is meant
to be all the rest of my life
with so much endless strife?
Many now examine the direction
to see if any correction
is needed to vastly improve
life and get out of the same old groove.
It`s easy to get stuck in a rut
and tell yourself maybe and but
it`s the same for each and everyone.
Why upset it all and be the one
to admit this is not they way
to stand up and have your say?
That first step is the hardest to take
even though it`s for your own sake.
It won`t be easy, but it`ll be worthwhile
and life will become one big Smile!!
