May I Introduce...

I would like to introduce my friend Sammy! Sammy came to live at my house a couple of years ago. He was a gift from my Mother. He is comfortable hanging around just about everywhere, so he is nice to have around. I keep him out and around at least until March. He always makes me smile when I see him.

I went to my Guild's Christmas party yesterday and I won the centerpiece. The photo isn't the best, but it is a vase with silver ornaments, silver tinsel, and a blue ornament on the top. My Mother gave me a beautiful blue table cloth with snow flakes woven in it, so I started to think about a blue/silver theme for this year, at least in the dining room. When I won the centerpiece I knew it was blue and silver this year. More photos to follow! I am hosting our families Christmas celebration on Saturday evening. We are having homemade egg rolls, fried rice, and not sure what else yet. Yum! Egg rolls seem kind of funny to some to have for a Christmas dinner, but we don't make them very often. When ever I mentioned it to a family member they were always pleased with the idea. So egg rolls it is!

It's so fun when you win something. And more special when it's something you will thoroughly enjoy.

We always have lasagna for Christmas diner. With homemade sauce, and we aren't Italian! So egg rolls seem fine to me. Enjoy!!

Sounds like silver and blue is a destiny *s* Maybe you can save an egg roll for me.

Sammy is very cute. Snowmen have a place in my heart. Isn't it nice to have the memory that it came from your mom.
