Reindeer Cookies - Think Upside Down! and Cookie Pops

We all know that Santa works hard on Christmas Eve, but we must not forget about the reindeer - they have a very busy night indeed flying Santa, his sleigh, and all those presents around the world. 

Candy Christmas Challenge at Sparkles

The Sparkles Christmas Challenge is a multi-craft challenge blog, which is great for me as I so rarely seem to find the time to get to the Christmas card and gift tag ideas rolling around in my mind. Primarily, it's a space thing, as I work my way through the shiny beads.

We Will Remember Them ...

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place; and in the sky

The larks, still bravely singing, fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

November ... time to get some jobs done!

Crikey, it's November already.  Can you believe it?  I can't.  It seems no matter how much I spread the Christmas activity throughout the year, I feel a sense of panic come November.  Time to finish up some of those work in progress projects!  First job done, another tree skirt.
