It's raining, damp and cold.........
We spent some quality time as a family. We went to a b-day party yesterday but today was pretty mellow. I cleaned out the kids toy boxes (boy did they have a lot of junk) and got lots ready for a Goodwill drop. I also headed out to find the Scooby Doo Mystery Machine Van and 5 Scooby Doo figurines for my 7 year old. We only allow our kids to put 3 things on their wish list for the holidays so usually they really want what they ask for. I can not find this anywhere. I have hit every toy and discount store in the Cincy/ Dayton area. I also looked last weekend when we were in Columbus. I spent this past week looking online but every place is out of stock. As a last resort I checked e-bay and folks are selling this item for $49.00 + S&H and it only costs $19.00 for the van and $14.00 for the figurines. My son may have to add something else to his wish list. I give it one more week, because I do not shop after Turkey day, the crowds are tooooo crazy. I am sure I will come up with something.
Chaka is home tomorrow so we will be hitting the phones hard. I am hoping to find a local dairy to buy from. I hope we can steal a moment away and spend some time together since the kiddies have school.
Cupcakes to come this week : Apple Cobbler, Apricot Brandy, Over the Rainbow and Southern Sweet Pot.
I am out for tonight. It is the perfect night to get the kids in the bed, make some ginger peach tea (hmmmmmm that may make a good cupcake) and curl up with a good book.
I will leave you with a quote from Buddah to start the week....
“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.”
Bring Harmony into your life......... until tomorrow, peace.
