Switching Gears


It's been a flurry of Christmas decorating over here, but if you've come a callin' you would never know that by the lingering Thanksgiving look on ye olde blog.  Turns out it's the last thing to be decorated .  
Up above is the apple pie that I made for Thanksgiving day.  I'd hoped to do a post about the way I cut out the crust using a giant pie-sized cookie cutter that I found last year at TJMaxx.  That isn't likely to happen now as the pie is long gone.  
Oh well, we all know this is the season for time moving along at an accelerated pace. 
   


 One last photo of my sister-in-law's pretty Thanksgiving table and it will be time to switch gears and welcome the beauty of the Christmas season.  I've got lots of things that I want to share, but so far they exist only in my head.  I'll be spending some time with the camera today because . . .

♫  we need a little Christmas
right this very minute
la de da de da de da de da da da da da
Oh we need a little Christmas   
right this very minute,
we need a little Christmas
NOW ♫♫♫

  1. I hear ya, Kim! My blog was actually the first thing done up for Christmas, because I had help! Ha! Your pie looks beautiful and I'm sure was delicious. I love a cut out crust like that. I have those autumn leaf glasses, too. Didn't get to use them, though :( xo

  6. It looks wonderful here! I agree. A little Christmas is just what the doctor ordered, especially after listening to the news about...nope, not going there today. Keep it light. Keep it bright. Keep it merry!

    But, Kim, why can't you talk about the pie? Lots of people make pies for Christmas.

  7. The pie looks scrumptious! I've not begun decorating the house yet, but I did change my blog header a few days ago. Maybe this weekend we'll start decorating. I like the decor to stay on into January, so I don't rush it beforehand.
