BERNIE: "No, but back in the olden days... that's how they wrapped up cookies and stuff isn't it"? ....
ME: "Well, yes, I guess so...why"?
BERNIE: "I thought I could wrap up some cookies just like your Mom used to do for you kids when you said you were going to run away"..... in the olden days"...

My Monday afternoon was greeted with a lovely package from New York city.
I love brown paper packages and gorgeous note cards, so this yummy print of Jennifer Causey's that I have loved for a long time, was opened with squeals of glee.
Thank you Jen! I love it, its going straight in a white frame.

Took a few minutes off from baking and wrapping to work on my some of my computer issues and, well, one thing led to another, and here I am uploading a photo...
I hope those of you who celebrate Christmas are having a wonderful one and everyone else is enjoying this festive season. I'll be spending a few days at the in-laws' so hope to catch up with many of you then.

I'm always game to save money in any way I can. Gift wrapping can be very expensive, even if you buy it on sale after the holidays. One inexpensive way to wrap gifts is by using brown kraft paper. You can buy it in big rolls very inexpensively at home improvement stores, but I find that if I keep the stuff that comes in packaging throughout the year, I never have to buy any, in fact I always have a pretty good sized stash.
