Happy Cyber Monday! And Happy December! I am so excited for this month!! I already have all my fun holiday activities planned out for the month, and yet, I just keep finding more ideas! I don't know how I am going to fit everything in!!
Listening: My husband and I had over 14 hours of driving this weekend, so we rented an audio book from the library to listen to! I love that I can download things to my iPhone for free from the library!
Loving: I had the best long weekend at home spending times with family and friends!
Thinking: I am so pumped about my Christmas break! I am going on my honeymoon to Australia and New Zealand! If you have any tips or suggestions on what we should do, please let me know!!
Wanting: I am so close to finishing my Christmas shopping and hope to finish this week. I have never done my shopping this early before, and I have got to say, it is really refreshing!
Needing: Since I basically ate my face off for the last week, I really need to eat some fruit and veggies (and maybe just that) for a couple days to detox.
Favorite Tradition: My favorite Christmas tradition is something my family has done forever! We cook up some rice pudding and put a blanched almond in so it is hidden. Whoever gets the almond wins a prize. The actual rice pudding isn't even very tasty…but the tradition is still my favorite!
Also, did I mention my excitement for CYBER MONDAY?? I have created my wish list and will be buying my items when I get home from work today…this was great motivation to get me planning my activities for the winter!
Here is a link to my store or click the image below in case you are interested in saving some money!! The sale lasts today and tomorrow! My store is 20% off and when you enter CYBER at checkout, you will get the full 28% off the original price! Happy Shopping!
So funny you are close to finishing your Christmas shopping when I just wrote on my Currently that I should start! Yikes! I need a healthy food detox too!

I love listening to audio books and free books of any kind are even better! I've met a lot of teachers who aren't interested in reading or listening to books. I don't know how this is even possible.
ReplyDeleteYou must have Norwegian heritage. Your family tradition is common in Norway on Christmas Eve, and is one of my favorite traditions too! In Norway, the prize is commonly a Marsipan Pig, but could really be anything. Rice pudding or porridge needs to be doctored up with sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and milk to make it tasty. God Jul!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love audio books! I commute an hour each day, so I live for them. Listening to anything interesting? That almond idea sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteI love to download free books onto my Kindle app from the library too! :) Hope you enjoy your honeymoon!
ReplyDeleteWhere are you going in Australia? I student taught in Brisbane for eight weeks and loved it!
