Mixing up a new year.

Merry Christmas to my faithful readers! (all 12 of you!) It's been a while, so I thought I'd update you a bit on my life lately.
 After surviving hives, anaphylactic shock, and prednisone, I 'm here to see another day! Santa was very good to me, despite me not being so good this year. I awoke Christmas morning to unwrap a shiny new RED! Kitchen Aid mixer. So much delight flooded my heart. No more struggling to mix a triple batch of cookies! No more kneading my fave challah recipe for what seemed like 10 hours! No more numb hands from mixing a giant batch of meatloaf. Life is good, indeed.
 My Naps was joy stricken with his new Kindle, and sweet A Bird had gotten everything on her list. "Santa" searched long an hard for that damn Leapfrog leap pad, and finally found one! Let's not forget about Singing Tori, and the Karaoke machine!
 Headed into this new year I, of course, have the standard "I want to lose weight and get healthy" goal. Only, I think this year, it might actually happen. I start WW again next week. It will work, because I will stick to it.
 I also would like to learn to knit socks. I just love hand made socks. A Bird is starting swiming again (she's been promoted to an Eel!!) and has expressed interest in ballet lessons.
 Our efforts to conceive have not yet been fruitful. I will continue to pray, and trust that God will provied.
So that's it for now. I have lots of recipes that I plan on posting..... the anticipation is aweful isn't it?!
Happy New Year!!!!
