MACRO MONDAY ~ DANISH COOKIES

These tiny cookies are always baked around Christmastime. They are called Peppernuts and are quite spicy for such a small cookie. When I was a boy, we would eat a bunch and tell people we ate a hundred cookies in one day. Probably not, but it sure was fun trying. Visit Lisa to see the whole collection at http://lisaschaos.com/  It's a lot of fun and the photography is NEATO! :0)

                                                   One hundred Danish cookies? Count them if you wish!

My wife also made these cute gingerbread treats! Happy New Year! David :0)

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY ~ SANTA FOUND FACE DOWN! SHOCKING!

I was just having a nice walk around the block when I spotted this unsettling scene:

 As I got closer, the gravity of the situation started to sink in...Santa? Santa? Are you okay?

 We worked hard to revive him and after a lot of fresh air, I am happy to report that Santa was up and back to his old self.

Merry Christmas!

TRADITIONAL BUNGALOWS AT CHRISTMASTIME HERE IN HOUSTON

The Lights in the Heights Festival is over, but the beautiful lights in these neighborhoods are still up. Go visit when you can. Here's a sample. Tomorrow I'll post some of the decorations you can see during the day. It's a charming walk most anywhere, but Bayland Street or Harvard Street are two great places to start. Happy Holidays!

Google Houston Heights Festival during November of each year to find out the details. Every front porch has something fun like a band, a choir group, or traditional Christmas music.

A VISIT TO A GREAT GUITAR STORE

My son got his early Christmas present....a mustard yellow guitar. He had saved up a lot of money and his Uncle Gary chipped in the rest. Here are pictures from the Guitar Center on Westheimer Street here in Houston. If you ever want to visit, the people there are very friendly and helpful.

This was the most expensive guitar in the Vintage Guitar Area. It must be very special!
