Christmas is over.  The New Year is here.  You know what that means.

WINTER!

It snowed today.  Not a ton, but a nice covering.  A good reason to bust out my favorite snow boots and justify another cup of coffee.  It’s cold.  Also a good reason to make one of my favorite soups—Rachel Ray’s Asian Noodle soup.  To go with it, I made a thick version of Thai peanut sauce, spread it on a wrap and toasted.  Yum.  Grilled thai peanut toasty.  #comfortfood

I’ve hunkered down and worked up two fun jewelry making tutorials that I’ve been thinking about for a long time.  Things have been so busy here the past two months (like everyone else’s past two months).  Lots of work on special projects-someday I’ll tell you.  Sorry to be secretive.  It’s super hard!!

This week I ship out for CHA (Craft and Hobby Show) in California.  If you’re going I’ll be in the Jesse James Beads booth.  They are a really fun company that I love working with.  There is a lot to do before then and I want to get these tutorials posted so I’m going to sign off here and get busy posting a sparkly bracelet tutorial.  You’re gonna love it.  I know it!

Big hugs to you,

Candie
