This year I got into the Christmas scene a little early, but I'm posting this a little later in the game. Classic. Here is some memorabilia from November as well!

I am very proud of this table centerpiece, which was very inexpensive because I already owned the platter and the berries came from our yard. The jars and rocks I purchased from the dollar store at $1.25 a piece and the candles from the grocery store were $5.00.

I bought the biggest bag ever (only a small portion shown) of my favorite tea "Merlin's Magic" from Bayswater Tea Co. in Kitsilano. I don't think I'll ever run out!

I baked blueberry muffins which actually came out blue? What? My sister thinks its because I mixed everything together in my heavy duty 400 watt Kitchen aid mixer! Whoops! As you can see below, the cornbread muffins turned out a little better!

I love Real Simple Magazine because its full of fabulous ideas - especially good things to cook in addition to all the organization tips! I tried their squash soup!
