I decided it might be fun to try using newspaper to wrap our presents this year. It seems like a crafty thing to do! It's kind of homey and fun. It's very environmentally friendly! I have lots of it!
Too bad I didn't check to see if I had lots of ribbon!
I had enough ribbon for one package. I guess I won't be wrapping presents today.
Oh well. This way I can ask the Husband what he thinks of newspaper as Christmas wrap. I'm not sure I'm sold on the idea. And I do have plenty of Christmas wrap from last year that we wouldn't want to have go to waste!
With plans for wrapping gifts on hold, I decided to bake some bread.
A friend gave me some peach jam that will pair ever so nicely with English Muffin bread!
As I began to pull out the ingredients for making bread, I realized I didn't have enough milk to make bread, have milk with dinner tonight, and breakfast tomorrow. Since I plan to go grocery shopping tomorrow I didn't want to make an extra trip today just to get milk for baking bread. Plans for making bread...on hold!
It was fine! I would just whip up some of the Jello pudding fudge I've been planning to make! I knew I had everything to make that!
Jello instant pudding...check!
