I'm a Scrooge or a Grinch or whatever-

I was in the Christmas spirit, that is until we needed new brakes on the van today. What a great time of year for that to happen! Oh, well. Stuff happens.

The kids are home for their break. I supplied treats to two of their classrooms today and all the kids were hopped up on sugar and excitement!

This time of year I am always looking for a cool appetizer. This one (also from my mother-in-law) is easy and always a huge hit.

Pickle Wraps
8 oz cream cheese
Buddig thin sliced meat
Dill pickles

Cut pickles in half lengthwise, put a thin layer of cream cheese on the meat and wrap up. Try it, it's YUMMY!
