Holiday Hangovers




This for me is the hardest part of the holidays. The madness of the season and all that leads up to it is over and theoretically, I can just kick back and relax. But I am not one to just kick back relax and do nothing. Although I have been doing a lot of napping this weekend (well deserved I must say, after being so sleep deprived all these years)here and there. I still have visions of sugar plums dancing in my head and thinking ahead to next year (which will be here next week after all).
I decided that we need a family theme. Something that will promote unity for us. So, me being mommy, decided that our family theme for 2009 will be (drumroll please) "comfort & joy".
This is a loaded statement because it is my goal in my family life is to provide them with comfort and joy. Sometimes I succeed at it, many times not. I keep on trying though and I know that one day I will succeed at it. I hope at least. Until I get it right or eventually give up (since I am so stubborn it will be the former rather than the latter)
Comfort & joy...means to me handmade. Home cooked. At home. Peace.
