My best friend's mom made a fruitcake one year when we were about 14ish. She was the best cook in the universe & I still wouldn't touch that thing with a 10' pole. It just LOOKS wrong.

Especially at the holidays when you have to deal with people you don't normally have to like spouses' work parties. The only thing that got me through that was a couple rum & cokes...but now that I know better, I will just tell them I was wassling. LOL

Blah. I hope you have some alchol-induced fun. :happy: I'm a mouthy drinker & only managed one "out of place" comment so my husband was happy with that evening's performance. It could have gone much worse.

I'm off to Turbo Jam. All these stupid holiday treats around my house are forcing me into 2-a-days. argh. Night all!

Here's my tree. It's not the bestest pic and surely doesn't capture the ornaments I've added year after year. Each symbolizing my family, love and milestones. We have gone through bad and and good and I like my tree to reflect all of that. Our tree speaks the story of our lives. That's why it is so special to me.
