Christmas Pillow Case Poem

Here is a preview of my plans for this years Black Friday.....I want to give my kids a little gift to start the Christmas holiday off on the evening of black Friday.  This year I want to make them Christmas pillowcases. (yes I will make tutorial if you would like one! Comment and let me know) This poem will be included with the cases.

Magical Christmas Pillowcases

December 1st starts a magical time

With all sorts of colors, ribbons and rhymes.

Sugarplum fairies will dance in your head,

If you put this special pillowcase on your bed.

The reason is special as you will soon see,

It’s that it has been dusted with “Christmas Fantasy”,

Visions of candy canes, Santa and treasures

Will fill each dream with sweetness and pleasures.

When the time comes for it to be washed

Do it quickly so no magic is lost!

(this would also make a great gift for friends and family. Kids and adults alike and it is very inexpensive to put together. )

Indulge in a homemade masterpiece that outshines the frozen aisle. Tender chicken breast, perfectly seasoned and seared to lock in juices, combined with fluffy rice, all enveloped in a rich, creamy semi-homemade sauce.

Cheese Dreams-a 1950's Vintage Appetizer Recipe

I love love love this recipe and so does my family! Even my kids friends were raving about them and I have fuzzy memories of eating them at my Aunt Carol's house when I was very small. They are beautiful (in spirit more than looks) and wonderful and you should try this recipe!    The Charming History of the Cheese Dream If you’ve ever bitten into a golden, toasty Cheese Dream, you know there’s something timeless about it — that perfect mix of crisp bread, bubbling cheese, and cozy nostalgia.
