Mason Jar Pies

Thanksgiving is all about the food. I always stuff myself with all kinds of delicious foods and hardly ever have room for dessert until hours later. Usually when we have guests over for dinner I'm left with a bunch of desserts or I'm making plates to take home of all the sweet treats because we always gorge ourselves with turkey and all the fixin's. So a great idea is just make the desserts ready to go so the guests can take them with them and can also be a Thanksgiving dinner favor. Try making individual pies in small mason jars for each of your guests. You could decorate the jars after you have baked the pies with scrapbook paper or ribbon and a tag with a greatful message that they came to dinner.

Macy's Peacock Themed Christmas Tree 2012


I am in love with this peacock themed Christmas Tree that I saw when we were shopping in Chicagoland recently. I took this picture that was on display at the Macy's department store at the Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg Illinois. I totally love this tree. I am planning on recreating something similar for my tree this year. I have been picking things up so I will post photos when I get the tree put together. Peacock must be a really popular theme this year because every store I have gone in has had some peacock item. LOVE IT!
