Good morning everyone! It’s the last day of the work week for me as I will be on vacation until after Christmas is over. I’m looking forward to having a few days to get myself organized for next year. I also have some books to read (not fiction) that I need to be able to concentrate on and I’m just not finding that time to devote to them that they deserve.

Today at work, we’re having our Christmas dinner. The company is providing the main course and the employees were invited to participate in a dessert bake-off. I made the raspberry cream cheese bars from the Land-O-Lakes cookbook I bought last month at the book sale. They turned out really nice looking and my tiny taste test says they taste pretty good too. I’m quite sure I won’t  win a prize, but at least I put in an effort.

The Kennel Club had it’s party last night and Charlotte and I went to it. We sat with Janet, Bob and Nancy Vandiver and the Le Blonds, ate a delicious dinner and had a lot of fun with the gift exchange that followed. I “won” a key fob that, when you whistle will make a beeping sound – not something I really need, but a novel item none-the-less. Janet asked me for it saying she could really use it, so of course I gave it to her. She made me take the tin of dog biscuits that she won, though I really didn’t need (or want) those either.

Well, I guess I need to get on with today’s work.

Have a great day!

Love to all,

Margaret
