The parking lots were almost empty and the shopping was enjoyable. No rushing or crowded lines. Enjoyed this.
Picked up some ideas from Dillards for sweets next year.
Dip marshmallows in white chocolate and then roll it in peppermint sprinkles. The boxed versions had a toothpick in the marshmallow. A coffee stirrer would work as well.
Also saw 2 marshmallows stuck together that were covered in white chocolate and made to look like a snowman with little candies for it's features.
We bought one large red glass Christmas Ornament half off for next year's tree. Think we will add some red into the Parlour Tree. In boxes I have some beautiful red ornaments that will be used for the tree.
TARGET had so much Christmas STUFF it was as if it were before Christmas. Great selection of 50 percent off items. I have a stash of Christmas Cards already and wrapping paper so I skipped buying these items. Picked up a few more decorative Christmas Ornaments that will be used on the Parlour Tree.
My daughter introduced me to BOOTS skin care so I bought some for myself. I understand that it is very popular in Britain. Gonna give this a try. While I was at TARGET I bought some.
Tonight after coming home from shopping, I noticed that the Family~room Christmas Tree had disappeared. Thank you DAUGHTER!!! This week Christmas decorating starts to migrate back into the boxes. Slowly the things came out and slowly they will go by by.
Will you be doing anything different for the new year? I want to lose 20 pounds before my Summer Birthday. That's my heart's cry for now. Think I will try the Special K Diet in 2011. A nice place to start.
Better get to bed. It's late and I have a long day tomorrow.
May you have a great Wednesday!

HI!!!
Great buys for sure!!!
I started my need to lose the menopause 15 diet with the special K
Special K for breakfast, I like the pecan one, yogurt for a morning snack, special K for lunch and a cheese stick for snack, and a sensible dinner for a bedtime snack, a few pretzels or a weight watcher ice cream bar, it took 3 weeks before I lost 1 pound, but I started walking, then after a week or so, added some jogging on the tread mill, after that 3rd week, the pounds started coming off, I lost 10 pounds in 2 months, went on our cruise gained 3 back, but then went to work again and I have kept that 10 off, the other 5 some day may come off, but if I keep that 10 off I am OK!!!
Good Luck, stick with it, and walk while doing it, the weight did not move til I started walking and some jogging, like walk 5 min, jog 1 minute, walk 2 min, jog 1 min, so on
you can do it!!!
HUGS!!!|
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Wow, you did really well in the sales, certainly some bargains there.
Yes Boots is very popular over here in England, most towns have one.
Oh yeah...I love trying new skin products. I did get a few Target goodies after Christmas. A ornament crafted from a small rectangle of music and a brass treble clef sign for my romantic bedroom tree (hubby is a musician)was my favorite.
