That's right guys, Christmas can bring all sorts of cheer. This year it brought smiling faces and happiness to my family. Young and old. Emma got tons of presents and love from her family and I received a nice small stuffed animal (a hippo), whom I name Ludwig. But shockingly, as I mentioned earlier, that I was playing secret santa, Nicky turned out being mine and not only did she buy me some glorious Frost poetry, she also got me the very thing I had been staring at in the store not two day before! I opened my gifts and just about teared up when I saw them... TWO wondrous pie plates. I had stared at them so longingly and convinced myself not to purchase them and my goodness was I so happy.
And not only did she give me these wonder plates, she has also given me an adoptee. An aloe plant! Its a small cute little thing which is saying its goodbyes tonight. But Nicky, the awesome cousin she is, is my partner in crime. We spent almost an hour looking at pictures, a lot of which were her garden which consisted of beautiful tomato, peppers, and carrots. There were tons others, almost up to 30 pots I think. She really is a green thumb, but apparently little aloe plants aren't safe, hahah. She says that though she's loving her gardening, that the mystery of the desert plant eludes her, sooooo I am inheriting it.
Its been a great day, and this is a short update but I wanted to tell you about the aloe plant and its glory as well as Ludwig. Oh and my grandmother got me a 'fill it' cake kit. Very neat. You can bake with it to have a round cake with different colored layers. Very cool! I'll try it out later after today's pie dishes are done.
Merry Christmas guys!
