Good Morning Ladies. I cannot wait to read this book but I also want to savor it during the holidays and I am not sure I can wait that long *wink*. In our household my Mom went all out for Christmas. We always got a ton of presents, which we opened on Christmas Morning, or so it seemed. The house & the tree were decorated with loving care. Our Christmas dinners were awesome as my Mom was an awesome cook. Of course if you needed a recipe you had to pay attention because she never used recipes. I sometimes thought she would try to throw us off by chatting about this and that and sneaking an ingredient. She wasn't that devious so I think it was innocent. I sure do miss my Mom. She died at 45 years old and somehow Christmas just wasn't the same after. Love & Hugs, Pam
