December is here and with that comes holiday decorating and parties. After a busy weekend, I’m looking forward to a more quiet week where I can eat healthier and enjoy some quality time at home.
I’m kicking off this week’s Worthy Reads with a collection of darling Gingerbread Houses. I love seeing the creativity behind each masterpiece such as gum drops for shutters, shredded wheat for a thatched roof, pretzels for a fence, etc. Enjoy!

I look at that room from Wiseman and Gale and mourn for the fact that I don’t have the money to start over with my furnishings. This is now my taste, but I must use what’s been in storage, which isn’t that far off, yet still unobtainable. xoxox, Brenda
