Nothing is more fun than to snuggle up at home on a cold day– and what better way to do it than wearing a pair of oh-so-comfy slippers? Keep those toes warm with some fun, comfortable, toe warming, slipper booties or moccasin slippers and enjoy a day at home.

When you choose the books you WANT to read for school, at home, or when you’re on a really long trip…what kind do you choose? Do you prefer mysteries? Non-Fiction? Funny books? Biographies? A magazine or comic book? What kinds of books do you like?

It’s easy to forget who you loan out books to, and it’s easy to forget who you borrow books from. What to do? Put bookplates in your books to tell the world that the book they are reading is YOURS and to please return after reading. Computer savvy Cupcakes could create these at home, but all of these fabulous bookplates were found on etsy.com at great prices.

The Nutcracker Ballet is based on the story “The Nutcracker and the King of Mice” written by E.T.A. Hoffman.  Although what is seen on the stage today is different in detail from the original story, the basic plot remains the same; the story of a young girl who dreams of a Nutcracker Prince and a fierce battle against a Mouse King with seven heads. Have any of you ever danced in The Nutcracker? Do you take dance?

Looking for a perfect party/sleepover snack? Bubbling pots of fragrant cheese and silky dark chocolate are perfect for sharing with friends this time of year.

 If you don’t have a fondue set, you can do it all stove-side (ask mom or dad for permission) and melt your favorite cheese or everyone’s favorite chocolate. What to dip? In the chocolate fondue, think fruits, cakes, and cookies. Cheese fondue is always good with bread and vegetables. Fondue, do you?
