Got a chance to visit the Christkindlmarket Chicago. I just love the way this place smells of cinnamon, sugar and apple cider. From the lights, the beautiful hand crafted ornaments and the delicious traditional german food, this place really put me in the holiday mood.
It’s been a while since I’ve baked aggressively, so I was really excited when my mom suggested that we make our gifts for the holiday season. We also thought it’d be nice to customize our labels – so I designed the packages for our homemade goods. It’s been fun looking through our cook books and deciding which recipes to take on.
Today, I had a great time helping out with a class project for my sister’s 2nd grade class. We thought that it might be fun for the kids to make their own holiday cards. I pre-cut pop-out christmas tree cards and the kids then decorated them. It was so wonderful to see their enthusiasm and excitement for the project. They loved working with glitter. Below are their awesome creations.
