Wow! It seems like all my friends are getting snow but me. My poor nephew and friends in the Denver area are dealing with -8 degree weather! Can you imagine living in below freezing temps? Yikes! I don't know if this old body could handle that. Lol!
I made my "Wednesday list" on Monday, so it's a good thing it's a cold, cold day here today. We are sitting at 18 degrees, windy. Whew! I always feel so sorry for those that have to work out in this kind of weather.
I just printed off a recipe from the Taste of Home website for Cinnamon Apple Jelly http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/Cinnamon-Apple-Jelly.
My dear friends Katie and Alissa made some a couple of months ago. I did get a taste of it, and it is delicious!
Well, my Christmas decorating is almost officially done. I just need to venture down by the pond to get some greens. I should have done that last week when the weather wasn't so frightful. I think Robbie and I will pursue that this afternoon if the temps go up a tad bit more. The Weather Channel says we will get up to 27 degrees. Maybe we can head out then.
Thanks to my dear hubby for fixing me a nice, toasty fire in the fireplace before he headed off to bed this morning. At least he didn't have to work out in the cold last night! He was also sweet enough to put some biscuits in the oven while I was delivering kids to school. Too bad that cinnamon apple jelly isn't already made. Mmmmm... That would be so good right now! =]
Well, it's time for me to head downstairs where it's cozy warm! On my list today: finish up Christmas cards (83 done, 49 to go!), cut out and sort coupons, get my Christmas recipes out and make my shopping list, and figure the checkbook. Gotta get ready for Friday-- shopping! So glad my activities today will be near the fireplace. Now I just need to put a pot of water on for some delightful hot chocolate.
Today I am grateful that I can be home to take care of some household chores. For those that have to work more than two days a week, I know it can be stressful trying to carve out a little time to accomplish these things. Stay as warm as you can today. I wish for you a grand week/end~

Wow...its really cold at your house. We had a storm...rain and high winds with lightning early this morning...so its pretty warm outside right now! Not my kind of Christmas weather! :(
Thanks for reminding me that I too need to figure the check book! :)
I've seen the recipe for the cinnamon apple jelly, and I wondered if it was a good one. Now I'll make it because of your recommendation!
Hope you have a most blessed Christmas.
