Frugal Friday-Christams


These cookies are always a hit, peanutbutter cookies made from Betty Crocker pack, then while still warm, insert a Resses' cup......I gave these to delivery ppl through out the season, and b/c I live up a steep hill, they were important. The pretty wrapping is Martha Stewart bought at craft store w/ a 40*/* off cqn.

True Story

I broke my toe, my big right one.......and I've done it before !
6th grade running up the stairs to answer the phone (no answer machines back then).
stubbed it so hard, spilt the toe bone, off to school I went with a boot and crutches. Fast forward how many years ?
bought a new pair of wedge heels, wore them to church, sure enough it stretched my toe joint, and put all my weight of the right side of my body on it .
True story of growing old, wearing heels, and then being bored out of mind while toe is proped.
