misoraHope everyone had a wonderful holiday season, and a Happy New Year's Eve last night. J and I celebrated with champagne, friends and lots and lots of kids - which sparked several late-night discussions of "are we ready for it?" and "such a big commitment" but ultimately ended in "okay, let's do this." haha. Onward!!
Our Christmas haul was a little lighter this year, but we both still got things we wanted, and everyone was happy. Lots of good meals were made, including cakes and cookies of the seasonal variety (I'll have to post my oatmeal-cranberry recipe at some point), and a gym membership was fully utilized to the utmost extent.
Lastly, something I've been busy with while avoiding writing - not sure why, kinda blocked in that area - I've gone crazy with artisan jewelry lately, and these are a couple of my results.
I made these two pairs (plus two additional ones that I forgot to take pictures of) for J's sisters as Christmas presents.
It's so much fun, and so therapeutic/relaxing to do wire work, that I'm actually considering opening up an Etsy store to sell some of the pieces that I don't want to keep.
Now, off to make some chandelier earrings and a freshwater pearl necklace. ^^
