look what i made...

i trust that you all had a grand old christmas and are now preparing for the new year. we are off to the sunny coast for a few weeks, so all will be quiet around here for a bit. before i go i thought i might post some photos that paint a picture of how the lead up to christmas looked. and my other blog will be filled with pictures of those near and dear to me and some of the presents that were unwrapped over the past few days. so pop over here to see my family blog.

potato salad made by me using one of my best friends recipes...really delicious and the only salad to be polished off at the dinner!
