Today is Christmas Eve Eve! My husband arranged to have house cleaners come today, so I took off and did some shopping and errands with the kids. When we got back, I felt like I was entering a brand new house. I am so thankful for my awesome husband!
And now, get your thinking caps on and get ready for a pop quiz! And, don't forget to stop by on Christmas Eve for some cookies (and crackers and cheese and salami and grapes and sparking cinder and....)!
