Neither of them will pose for a picture in the hall. They just sit there looking crestfallen. Bastards.
Seriously, I think I must have been possessed by Martha Stewart. What was I thinking? I have made things I had no business making. I don't bake; too heavy handed and too creative with the receipt (they never look right). Yet, I decided to make all the things (the things I normally pay someone else to make) I associate with Christmas. Admittedly, I did realise my folly mid last week; but unfortunately the girl I normally use went home for Christmas. Never again.

Ya crack me up! Love the tabletop... especially the paperwhites. I have them in my office window where they're alternately blasted by the wind coming in the cracks and the hellish temps of the 100 year old radiator.
I am up waiting for something to finish baking... spiced pecans.
Merry Christmas, dear HOB&C!
'tis the season... and rarely does a day go by without a hitch.
I am surrounded by enough plastic, noisy toys to start a store.
The image of your tabletop gave me a moment's respite. Thanks for a little Christmas miracle.
Merry Christmas and here's to New Year's Eve.
Oh, I love your wit. Still.
Thank you for the great photo of your clamshell... perfect timing since it answered this call:

It looks beautiful! Merry Christmas HOBAC...I hope you had a great day! ;)
my pup actually cooperated and i got a fun photo of him, although you can't see his big red satin bow. check my blog for the photo.
I ADORE the paperwhites in the clamshell. Adore. No kidding.
Thank you all so much for your kind comments. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, as we did.
OK- so I joined the pooch picture bunch on my blog too. I am loving your paperwhites! The whole table is beautiful.
Wishing you the Happiest of Holidays!
Hope you had a blessed Christmas. Wishing you and yours a prosperous 2008!!!
So did you serve the offending food and did everyone survive? too funny!!! the girl went home for Christmas - flog her!! that ingrate.
GP - thank you, and here's wishing you all the best for the New Year.
CdT - ingrates the lot of them! Ha! It all turned out beautifully in the end. The end being 1:30 in the morning Christmas Eve - a new record. One I will not be breaking in the near future.
Well, at least your paperwhites in a shell look amazing. Happy Holidays!
BA - thanks and a Happy Holiday to you too!
