Oh me! The last couple of days have been doozies. I am so sleepy.....
Yesterday I baked 19 loaves of pumpkin (yes, from scratch) and cranberry orange (also from scratch) breads. I also made 5 pounds of chex vanilla chunks and 7 pounds of peanut brittle. I also mailed 2 more packages yesterday. We got several lovely Christmas cards as well. My aunt and uncle came over for a nice visit last night. My aunt made chocolate oatmeal cookies,, fruitcake cookies and chocolate chip cookies. She brought us a quart of home canned cream of tomato soup (my favorite). I got her recipe last year and made it for the first time. So yummy!
Today I went to CVS, Wal-Mart, P.O.and the local pharmacy. The twins' speech therapist came this am and it went quite well. The housekeeper came and finished the floors (shampooing) and then we had some friends over from church at 5:30. I was so tired and hubby as well. He brought home takeout. This is a treat for us (as I cook almost all of the time). He had a bbq pork plate and I had a Memphis special (bbq pork sandwich covered in slaw).
It is getting late and the boys are not resting well the last couple of nights for some reason, so I will be turning in. I'll have a couple of posts for tomorrow.
Good night and sweet dreams! Merry Christmas to all!

My goodness Marva, you always amaze me with all that you get accomplished. How I wish I had your energy :) I hope that you get some rest, and that you have a great day!
That's a lot of baking! I hope that your twins start sleeping better. You must be one tired mommy!
Thanks girls! I am tired but glad to have it behind me.
