A Marshmallow World



Patrick got this song stuck in his head last week and has been going around singing it so often now its looping 'round in my head too! Thought I'd share it with you so you can join in my fun. Oh...and having a song stuck up there without knowing all the lyrics drives me batty so in case you're like me here ya go:

A Marshmallow World
by Dean Martin

It's a marshmallow world in the winter
When the snow comes to cover the ground
It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day
I wait for it the whole year round.

Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly
In the arms of the evergreen trees
And the sun is red like a pumpkin head
It's shining so your nose won't freeze.

The world is your snowball, see how it grows
That's how it goes whenever it snows
The world is your snowball just for a song
Get out and roll it along

It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts
Take a walk with your favorite girl
It's a sugar date, what if spring is late
In winter it's a marshmallow world.

Happy December y'all!

1974 Holiday Decorations



Today is my 36th birthday! To celebrate the day I've unearthed a book by Better Homes and Gardens titled Holiday Decorations You Can Make which was published in 1974, my birth year. Of course, I wish I had time to craft these folksy creations (especially those spiffy window shades for every window in the house) but alas, time has run out! Seriously though, aren't the paper chains remarkable? I'll just have to settle for this eye candy and the scrumptious red velvet cake that Patrick bakes for me every year.

December Frost



It seems like winter has finally arrived in Kansas. We woke up to this beautiful frost on the car windows and the temperature at a mere 14 degrees. Hope your Monday is going well.
