Nutcracker Mantel

This year my daughter asked me if she could use her Nutcracker collection to decorate in the family room. She said it was "outgrowing" her bedroom.

It appears I have an 11-year old interior-decorator-in- training.



Technically, the next three pictures are not of the mantel, but I thought they were picture-worthy anyway.


The latest addition to the collection . . .

Merry Christmas.

Please Cuddl Duds

Cuddl Duds make life lovely! and cozy, snuggly, warm, luxurious, and sweet. It's like excessive indulgence in softness. I'm grateful. I am. In fact, Cuddl Duds, I love ya,



can't live without ya, but . . .


can you do low-rise . . .


This is embarrassing.

October through March I work in them, play in them, and sleep in them. They're the greatest thing since online shopping, which coincidentially, you can do in Cuddl Duds - just try that at the mall. But, as fabulous as they are, occasionally hipsters would be even better. If you agree, go to Cuddl Duds Facebook page and post a comment.

Please Cuddl Duds, think about it. Life could be lovelier :)
