I finally got the pictures back from the Turkey Trot (1) which is PROOF that I actually did run in it! B's parents were giving him such a hard time on Thanksgiving for not going with me to at least cheer me on. I think he was surprised that I even did it. Well, now I have the proof!
I made a mess and did some Christmas related crafts, including tying tulle to an extra string of lights (2). I love the look of tulle and lights. I don't think this is my last craft involving the two. I also decided to make my own gold polka dotted wrapping paper (3). I love it. Reminds me of Kate Spade.
I posted my recipe for peanut butter pancakes (4) yesterday. I might make these again this weekend and top them with some raspberry jam...which was my original intention for this recipe.
Also, in care you missed it, earlier this week I posted my gift guide (5). If you are looking to buy me a gift this Christmas season...I will take anything from that post. :)
How was your week? I hope it was more exciting than mine!!
Congratulations on doing the Turkey Trot! I seriously need to get my butt in gear and force myself to do something like this! Those PB pancakes look delish too!
ReplyDeleteI did a Turkey Trot last year and loved it! Good for you. I also love the look of lights and tulle and those pancakes look amazing! I'm following you back from the hop, thanks for checking out my blog!
