I love making gingerbread cookies this time of year. I usually just make them small and round, bite size. And I am admitting right here for you all – I buy ready-made dough. First I slice the roll as directed. I then cut the slices in half, and then in half again. That way you get more cookies! I roll them between my palms, into little balls. Gingerbread can take me right back to those carefree days of childhood.

Take a look at the great art being created for Sea’s party.

A few moments of joy for you – I Pray on Christmas.

Three more postcards for the Birthday postcard exchange. Sending them all out tomorrow. Some of the December birthday girls will be getting their cards super early. Knowing how hectic this month is, and how forgetful I am, I wanted to be sure the cards made it to their destinations.

Hope you all had a warm and wonderful holiday!

Blackbird, blackbird, what do you see?
Blackbird, blackbird, are you watching me?
Blackbird, blackbird, sitting so high.
Oh how I wish, I too, could fly.

I am so pleased with how this turned out. I had planned on doing a solid black silhouette, but the first wash took me in another direction. This is my first little bird. I like him so much, I am going to have a hard time gifting him for the Birthday postcard swap.

Hope you are having a super day!
