How fun is this? I bought myself an Advent calendar! In the past, I have bought very pricey David's Tea Advent Calendars, which are gorgeously packaged and have two servings of various teas for each of the 24 days before Christmas. I have thoroughly enjoyed them the two years I got them. The David's tea calendars cost $50, and for some reason, this year, it slipped my mind to order one. Maybe I was hoping they would have a sale? Anyway, I was missing having an Advent calendar, and David's was all sold out of theirs.
We were already three or four days into December, and I was searching for something online and found this K-cup coffee pod Advent calendar on Amazon. It was $25 and contains 12 K-cups. Still kind of pricey for what you get, but I am going to have fun with it. Look at those flavors! Merry Mocha, Cinnamon Bun, Spiced Eggnog, Spiced Rum Butter… This is going to be fun.
The only criticism I have so far is that they are impossible to get out of the package. My husband says he thinks he knows how to do it. I told him to surprise me every morning with a Holiday K-cup of the day.
Are you doing anything special for yourself this holiday season? I think we all need a reward, considering.

Yes, I have taken my unspent gas money (because I am not commuting this year) and put it towards some quilting books and fabric for my reward. Because I am saving a LOT of gas money I will find more little delights as winter gets here. LOL I have rewarded the family too, nice box of expensive handmade chocolates from the local candy shop.

I’ve allowed myself to buy some fabric collections this year as a treat. The bonus for that is wonderful leftovers to add to my stash!

I was thrilled that the chocolatier from the small(er) town 30 miles to our south has a pop-up shop here this week! He makes truffles & bark & all sort of delights. But my favorites are his chocolate covered Oreos & Nutter Butters! Needless to say, I was in line for my treats on Tuesday! Stay well!

We got out of town last weekend. Went to Bodega Bay and rented a big house. Took everything we could possibly need and then some so we didn’t have to go anywhere. The grandgirls got a break from online school and everyone had a new attitude after a couple of days of ocean air. IT really was a perfect break from all this chaos. I feel very blessed we were able to do it.

I shop the clothing sales for my daughters’ gifts, and they’ve been so good this year that I’ve picked up things for myself that were really cute. And why not?!

My gift to myself is a jewelry armour. I have admired them for years and finally decided it is now or never,
