Maisie and I have been banished to my rooms until the gifts are wrapped and the cleaning lady finishes her thing (ie, saving my life).
My Xmas Menu consists of 2 Prime Ribs, a honey ham (I don’t eat ham, but the rest do), and other yummy things I need to start cooking.
(Yes, I am Jewish. No, not everyone else is. We celebrate ALL holidays. If we’ve missed one that may be particularly fun, leave a comment below and we’ll celebrate that as well- a party is a party, y’all)
So, here are the highlights:
My Menorah (it’s a Hanukkiah, people, but Americans always call the Hanukkah one that) and our kickass Xmas tree- obviously right at the end of Hanukkah:
More pics of Desmond, the MINI Cooper Convertible, or what my father likes to call my ‘mid-life crisis’- We made this killer car seat pad from “British Fashionista” fabric to protect leather and I scotchguard-ed it.
He got a unicorn “cutie mark” (as Maisie calls it)
and other ridiculousness… I am restoring this baby MYSELF (yes, I am eclectic like that) and I also have a love of silly things.
- there was a tear and I repaired it- not perfect, but I am pleased with my efforts
- this engine needs things… but first, it needed sad eyes
- My current car horn sounds like a dying lamb. These killer Hella horns are going to be wired and soldered in for me,
- with convertible top down, behind Maisie’s seat- a Giraffe
- these coasters
- Union Jack coasters- even Maisie’s carseat got one
- This is truly how I feel about this car. I love it.
Plus- VOILA! Changed out the faded boot emblem
Finally, my nail lady, whom we adore, bought Maisie a giant unicorn (to go with her smaller one). Maisie named it “Sweetheart”
