I prepare and freeze seasoned apples ready for pies or cakes for the holidays and beyond. Then Thanksgiving week in preparation for the meal with family. Trimming the tree is usually done the Friday after Thanksgiving. Picking out and wrapping the gifts, Christmas music playing and Christmas cookies are ready by then! Going to midnight Mass. Watching our children and grandchildren open their presents on Christmas Day! Spending time with family and friends is my Simple Joy too! Thank you for your great post!

I am home 99.9% when my kids get home from school. I think it is funny the reaction I get from them when I do arrive home. "WHERE WERE YOU?!" I realized today that they aren't irritated, it is just unusual and they don't like the change in their schedule. Even the 14 year old. They expect and I think enjoy that their mom is home everyday when they walk through the door. Nice feeling for this mom.<br /><br />The other Simple Joy I alluded to earlier is.: The Starbuck's holiday red cup! YAY! Fill it with their delicious Caramel Brulee Latte and I'm in for a slice of Heaven for a few moments. Today I got my first one of the season. Aaahhhh! SO YUMMY! I even told the barista that I had been looking forward to this for months! :)Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11019562060252268854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2692958826098214952.post-31023511417560403932011-11-29T06:00:32.314-05:002011-11-29T06:00:32.314-05:00On Friday for the first time in year I spent some ...On Friday for the first time in year I spent some time with acquaintances in a pub. Not something I'll ever make a habit of, but as an occasional experience it was good fun, good company in a friendly environment with a lovely open fire to gaze into.Art Tidescohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16680781189400367930noreply@blogger.com
