Why do we do it? Why do we spend hours and hours this time of year decorating, shopping, wrapping, baking and entertaining? Is it for us? We don’t think so? We think it’s for family and friends (and special friends really are our family). They are a precious gift and it’s a time to show them just how much we love and appreciate them…If you are the creative type, you are inspired by beauty and receive great joy from sharing it with others…We’ve had a lot of fun decorating for both ourselves and clients this year…
Now there is baking to do…and parties to plan…
Each year, I always cook treasured recipes like this family favorite from a friend. I’m sure it would be as big of a hit at your house as it is at mine!
When all the presents are bought and the last holiday pie is eaten, we remember why we do it…Simply because your family is worth it! Don’t you think? Merry Christmas!
