create (a life): middle of the week

This week I am...

...realizing I have far to go as a caramel-maker.

...relenting, for now, and taking comfort in baking what I know- cookies & gingerbread.

...enjoying the nibbling that accompanies a busy kitchen.

...panicking a little at the quick approach of gift exchanges.

...tweaking my to-do list, and deciding what can wait until after the New Year- or not at all. 

...deciding that a happy Mama is worth waiting to sew the kiddos their new lovies until January.

...trying to be content with what I have to give to everyone else vs. adding "one more thing."

Wishing you luck in all of your last little things!
