Peppermint Oreos

We are doing a Christmas Cookie Exchange for work tomorrow ... an excuse to taste several kinds of cookies???  Yes please!!  I chose to do Peppermint Oreos - they were so simple.  Kind of time consuming but well worth it!  I will be posting pictures of all the cookies I scarf down taste test later. Recipes that call for only 3 ingredients are the bomb diggity!

Ornament Swap 2012

I love everything Christmas related and when I saw this ornament swap hosted by  Dreaming of Dimples  and Living in Yellow  - I jumped right in!  I'm so glad I did because I got an amazingly fantabulous ornament from the lovely Rose Rambling .  She is seriously so sweet!  She said this ornament screamed "Kari" and she was EXACTLY right!!   As if a cute ornament wasn't enough...she sent this sparkly zebra bag - love it!  I think this girl has known me forever...she definitely knows my taste! And check out the ADORABLE ornament hook - I've never even seen anything like this!  I am on a mission to find more!! These pictures don't even do the ornament justice...so I thought I'd try a video :) Thank you so much Rose - you ROCK!!
