My to-do list continues to grow...not because there are more things needing to be done but because I am just continuously remembering things that need to be done that I had forgotten about. There are many parts of my house that I really don't think about until I am having overnight guests and then they need to be freshened up. I've made a calendar and as long as I stick to it-which I have already had to carry something over-I will be fine. Again, Thanksgiving shouldn't be allowed to be so late-or, I should learn to pay more attention to the date!
In any case, I've got a minute so let's head into the kitchen today. I changed it up just a bit this year.
I didn't fill the carpenter's box with the candy and cookie molds this year. You'll see in a minute where they ended up.
Since I had made the Ribbon Candy container for the little tree I decided to put it in the dough bowl and then surround it with the candy canes I made a few years ago and the candy molds with the beeswax Santas from many years ago. I also added in the cookie mold and I think I like it better than all kind of spread out amongst several places as it has been in the past. The Santa dummy board wreath is in here now as well since the new Santa sign in the living room has arrived.
I usually have a larger floral arrangement here but I needed to borrow it for the living room as the one in there had just seen better days so I brought out this small lantern and elevated it in a footed red dish and I think it will serve the purpose.
So that is the kitchen so far this year. I still may tweak a few things as I get more time but if not, it's good to go.
I'll be back. Until then, stay safe and stay tuned.
