Preparing for Christmas

This weekend I plan to prepare for Christmas.  I plan to fill the house with sweet warm fragrants with my baking and making Christmas candy.  I will try to get some pictures and recipes up on the blog Sunday.

I am so excited!!! Jane from the wool processor in Illinois emailed me and they are starting to work on my wool.  I can not wait to open that box of wool yarn and hopefully some pencil roving.   I sent them 5 or 6 fleeces from my flock so I can see what they can do with the wool from my flock, the BFL/Shetland crosses and if all goes well, I plan to send them lots of Spinning C fiber next Spring.  Several spinners have spoke for fleeces already but I know I will have several pounds of wool to ship to them.

Praying that everyone has a very happy weekend and that we all never forget the reason for the season.

  1. Glad to hear from you. Worried you got what Dan had, ( again). I bought baking supplies today whilst doing groceries. Came home and the girls were baking. Guess we are all on the same wave length.

  2. I will start baking next week (although I did bake 3 pies and a batch of cookies last week...but the pies are gone and the cookies almost gone already). I'm still tryi g to decide what to make. I know I'll be makig cinnamon candy...but beyond that?
    I will be interested to know about the processor in Illinois...I may decide to send some of my wool there at some point if you are happy with their work.
