christmas at the jonks

yup. its all over. now we've just got the new year, and then we're done for another year. kinda sad. but the pictures are good at least.

let there be peace on earth

and let it begin with me.....

oh its christmas. its christmas. santa is coming - which to be honest - kinda creapy. but whateva. more importanly, my family is coming!! yay!! almost all of them too. i'm sad because Jane and Megan arent coming because they had to make an emergancy trip to toronto, but at least i have the rest of them. my tree is decorated, the prezzies are done, the christmas music is playing...ahhh so good.

speaking of christmas music - my favourate song HAS to be "fairytale of newyork" by the pogues. sooo good. here's a quote.
Youre a bum
Youre a punk
Youre an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy christmas your arse
I pray God its our last

dude, it just doesnt get more christmassy than that!!

tarts

so my tarts are crap. the first batch i made were so yummy! so i got really excited about making them. but i ran our of un-bleached white all purpose and used whole wheat pastery instead. turns out you cant substitute the flour. they're dence and gross. the other thing is - i had them in the oven for what seemed like an hour. but they didnt cook fast. i think my oven is broken. this is not something that i want to deal with right before i'm to make a turkey dinner. oh dear.

i have comments! yay! i'm very excited about that.
anyway, I finished my blanket. i love it, paity pants loves it. it glows in the dark - how cool is that? it kind of surprised me though in the middle of the night. Its cozy, and well, already dirty - which i'm taking as a good sign. i see this being her blanket that she carries around like - isnt that guy linous??? (i'm sure thats spelt wrong) I feel super crafty and accomplished. I even made applesauce and got dinner started (in the crockpot) before 8am this morning. yay me.

so i took the kids (the 2 young ones) for a walk this morning. Pait on my back, and M in the stroller. what a workout!! but i needed stamps, honest. the starbucks was just a bonus! and now ist about 10 am, and paity has had a nap, M is happily playing with the blocks and drum....oh so much fun!!!

I guess thats it! thanks for reading - and i looooove comments!!
