I am not a huge fan of the cold. I tend to keep a dry throat and stuffy nose during the cold days. However, I must say that it's about time I have to wear leggings under my pants! I have been in a serious mood to make winterish foods! Yesterday I got an early Easter gift, yes, I realize we haven't even had Christmas! But I am so excited to play with my new Kitchen Aid mixer! Last night Blake and I made bread for the first time. Well, I say we.. Really I made it and he played with the dough, swinging it around and stretching it! Haha! Either way, our french bread was so delicious and incredibly easy! I mixed up some "spiced up olive oil" from pinterest and we loved every bit of it. Those of you from Brenham, my hubby says it is better than Volare's! Whoo! Tonight I'm making some broccoli cheese soup to go with our bread, I can't wait, I'm drooling!
On another note, we are getting pretty settled in to the new house. A touch of Christmas went up yesterday, I'm not doing much since we won't be here. I still don't have anything on the walls because I'm waiting for them to be painted one of these days! All my furniture still looks weird because I'm not sure of just where I want everything and man, oh, man are those kitchen cabinets giving me heck! I was spoiled with cabinets I designed at the old house. Soon enough I will have my dream kitchen.. soon enough!
I hope you all have a Christ filled Christmas season and remember how blessed we all are! My next post will be after the new year filled with all things Italy from our trip!! Pray for safe travels! We love you all :)
