Gift Giving

I am one of those people who loves to find, or make, the perfect gift for people. And I am one of those people that shops year round so that by the time Christmas rolls around I have a mini stockpile of gifts. This tends to look like overkill to some.

And I will occasionally forget a gift or two need to add it to the pile quickly. Listen it’s not my fault I am forgetful and shop year round. There have been times that I have found Christmas presents in my closet months after. In my defense they were video game themed socks so they weren’t something “big”.

Now we are ready to kick off this holiday, not that we weren’t before. Now time to spread some holiday cheer with gifts and to make some cookies too!

Family Secrets

Imagine you are in a Hallmark movie and the whole idea is you get these letters from your great grandmother and must learn the family secret. I will admit I am a Hallmark Christmas movie watcher. They are cheesy and predictable and make for a festive background sound when I am working in my office in my non-digital life.  I have another post in the works about things these movies have made me think about Christmas. I will admit for years I thought there was a family secret in my family too, but it turns out I was wrong.

The Witches – Earth Witch

While I may see a lot of three-person witch poses (think Charmed and the power of three) I wanted to go for more of a The Craft vibe with the four directions/four elements. Today being the first of the four with my Earth Witch look. I wanted a more modern look for my witches, which is why she doesn’t look like the kind you would have found at the witch trials in Salem.

What I did forget was that my witch doesn’t have a familiar with her. I was trying to think of what sort of animal would be helpful to an earth witch. In the book I am currently reading the earth witch has a crow for a familiar and while a crow would be a very dark and appropriate it seems it would be better for an air witch, what with it flying and all. I was thinking maybe a scorpion or a snake. I think a snake would be better, and potentially just as deadly as a scorpion depending on the snake.

Always a Good Time…

For cookies! At least to me it’s always a good time for cookies. I mean there are such things as breakfast cookies so that means they are good anytime of day. Generally I don’t do milk with my cookies, unless it’s an Oreo and I am in the mood for dunking.

On cold days in the winter I love to bake because it warms up the house, makes it smell good and leaves me with something delicious to eat. In fact it was cold in my non-digital life yesterday so I baked some brownies. I may have even had one as a midnight snack, but don’t let cookies know I cheated on them! That is enough rambling from me. I will be back with a blogging vengeance (no for real!) as soon as I am house guest free.
