On the 22nd I went to the Knit and Gab Christmas Party! Knit and Gab is the group of women that gets together every Tuesday from my previous neighborhood and spends the night eating and gossiping (there’s actually no knitting). I still like to go when I have the time. It’s kind of a long drive me now, but it’s so nice having a night out, and Hunter is old enough now that I can leave him home with Daddy.

I have been looking forward to this Christmas party for months now. I brought little baggies of all those truffles I made for everyone who was there and Trent and I made a butter rum cake with a rum glaze. Everyone really seemed to enjoy  the presents I brought. We do secret Santa gift exchange and I had no idea of what to bring for my person. I ended up making a scarf for her and buying some lavender scented bath stuff. Since I can’t make hats I had Britten crochet a hat to match the scarf. Her daughter-in-law told me she really liked it. So, everything I brought to the party was a big hit.

I got a bracelet from my secret Santa. I don’t usually like bracelets, but this one is SO pretty. It’s just a simple silver band with “Live, Love, Laugh” written on it. Unless I lose it (which I hope I don’t) I think I’m going to be wearing it all the time. I love jewelry that is small and dainty, and this definitely fits the bill! Thanks Kay! (She was me secret Santa this year!)

I also tried promoting my Mom’s website while I was there. I wore my Kristen necklace and brought my other necklaces that Mom made for me. One of the Knit and Gab ladies pointed out to me that my Mom should start making eye glass’s chains. She told me that she’s been looking for a well made light-weight, but pretty, chain for her glass’s for a while. She said that she wants ten percent of all sales for the idea, or my Mom can just make one for her. I thought it was a grand idea! I think my Mom is going to start designing one soon!
