The Icicles and the Icing. . .

The Icicles. . .                     

                          Thank You Belinda!!

Christmas Eve here, and what did the postman bring?  Just in time!  My icicle doll from Belinda Schneider!  What a lucky, lucky person I am, don't you agree?  She's fabulous! . . . I mean both of them, Belinda and the Icicle Doll!  Doesn't this look marvelous on my tree?  Thank you, thank you, Belinda!

And here's a close-up of her wonderful face.  Just gorgeous!  My icicles are on their way to Luxembourg now and should be received well before the New Year, but maybe not by Christmas *cry/sniffles*.  I tried but I think I might have been a little too slow. . . But thanks again, Belinda, for a wonderful swap!  For everyone interested, you can keep up with the progress on our swap by visiting Belinda's beautiful blog. Lots and lots of gorgeous icicles to delight your eyes!

And  the Icing. . .

Crafty me! . . . Positioning myself behind the camera to ensure a great slide show without me in it!  We spent Saturday at Don and Suzie's, our dear friends and koumbara (any Greeks out there?),  making Christmas cookies.  A perfect day!  Just wish I could show you all the things that didn't make it to the camera, like the one huge molten chocolate chip cookie that morphed all the little ones in the oven. And I am very sad that I forgot to get my camera out and snap photos before Suzie's niece Emma, and our friend Phil left.  Wish you could have seen them too.  Oh well, enjoy what's here, and have a very Happy Christmas!

Wow, I'm so happy the Mucha Icicle arrived on time for Christmas and you like her. Looks pretty on the tree. Mucha was an incredible artist and like Klimt, I just love his faces and everything. Hope your Christmas was cheerful!!
