CANDY CANES

at the grocery store today i bought candy canes for $.37! these ones to be exact

but but you say it is to early or to late for candy canes, did i mention that they were

$.37! the cashier asked if i was going to eat them and i assured her

that i was not, that i was in fact putting them away

for next year. she then wanted to know if they would

keep that long, and i assured her once again that indeed yes they

would, as long as they were not kept in an attic or somewhere

hot they would be fine.

so i got the bright colored ones to go on the family room tree which is white.

the pale red and green ones are for the tree in the

dining room. and the blue ones may go on the tree in the living

room, though i'm not sure about that one yet. not

totally sure how i feel about candy canes on that tree. that is the one tree

that i am kinda particular about. all the ornaments are white, silver, robins egg blue and

a few are a pale apple green. we shall see next year how i

feel about it.

speaking of xmas, i almost have all the xmas stuff put away. just a few more things

to pack away, and the totes need to be stored away and two trees need

to be taken down. that's it i swear, the ornaments are

already off the trees but the trees are still standing.

it is my husbands job to take those bad boys down and put them in their

bags.
