Busy girl, crafty girl.

HELLLLOOOOOOO!!!!

If you ever watched Seinfeld, you know how you have to say that...HELLLLOOOOOOO!!!!
What's been going on the blog world???
I do not know. I just don't have the time to keep up with all you people!! And I miss it!!
I'm hoping that when Christmas and the New Year are over, things will slow down...like REALLY slow down.
Seems like all I do is work, take care of kids, do laundry, clean house, ya know....the real fun stuff.
I did have a nice little weekend.
Friday night was my work Christmas party. Marianne was my date. Although I know the main reason she agreed to go was to ogle at one of the doctors I work for.
haha. She is a d.o.r.k.
I had a lot of fun. I believe I drank a little too much, talked too much, and probably a little too loud (over the music).
I woke up Saturday morning hoarse. My throat hurt and I could hardly speak.
But it was worth it. I love my co workers. I love the doctors I work for.
Watching them sing karaoke and dance and laugh.....and be normal, makes me smile. :)

So, Saturday morning I woke up at 5:00....because I just can't sleep late. No matter how late I stay up, no matter how much I drink, no matter how tired I am.....I'm up by 7 at the latest, EVERY weekend.

This week is Secret Santa Week at work. So, I decided to try out a Pinterest recipe. I made about 10 little pans of Whiskey Cake.
I took a few pans around, made my family try it out, to see how it was.
Survey says: YUM!

WHISKEY CAKE, baby!

So, I wrapped some up and made it today's gift to my Secret.....secret present receiver?
I also brought an extra pan for the girls up front.
They loved it. Yep.....I'm totally a great baker! ;)

Sunday I made my famous Pepper Jelly. It will be added to Friday's gift to my person!
I can't give it any earlier....everyone knows I'm the one who makes it!
Isn't it pretty?



I'm quite crafty and cooky lately! Pinterest is a wonderful thing.
I've made a majority of my gifts this year. I can't show certain ones, because some of my blog friends will be receiving them for Christmas! :)
But I LOVED this soda tab bracelet idea!!


I made these for Lucia, my aunt's little girl, Rachel, and Zac took the yellow and orange one.
Although he doesn't wear it. haha.
Too girlie, I suppose!

So, that's what's been going on with me! Work, kids, laundry, cleaning, baking, cooking, crafts, and no blogging. :(
Hopefully I'll be able to catch up with all of your lives after the new year.
I hope you are all doing super awesomely! ;)
Have a great week!!
