These are the delicious treats I made for co-workers as a "holiday happy". Waffle shaped pretzels with Hershey kisses, hugs, and caramel-filled on top. Put in the oven at 170 degrees for about 5 minutes. Take out of oven and press an M&M into the chocolate. Refrigerate until no longer melty. Yum!
This is our "6-foot" Christmas tree. Note that it's only 6 feet tall if you stand the top "branch" all the way up. Because we don't have an angel or a star yet (after Christmas sale, here I come!), I put the favors from Susan's wedding on top - yellow, star-shaped suckers.
Unfortunately, Boris went to the big fishbowl in the sky yesterday morning. For several weeks now, he has been very inactive. I even got a heater for his bowl, but it didn't seem to help. Since Davis and I were going to PetsMart anyway, I decided we should adopt a new Betta. I am happy to introduce Cecil- a crowntail betta.
As a Christmas present for Oscar and Einstein, we got them a new (plastic) plant. We also got them some tasty Christmas treats - 5 minnows and 2 small goldfish. Einstein ate 2 minnows and half of a goldfish yesterday, but Oscar seemed very uninterested, which is highly unusual. As of this morning, there were 2 minnows and a goldfish left. Now, however, there is 1 of each (see bottom left of the tank), and Oscar and Einstein don't seem to care.
Now, I'm going to get started on preparing food for lunch/dinner tomorrow!
French bread & cheese spread
Glazed ham
Twice-baked potatoes
Steamed broccoli
Grasshopper pie
