This weekend my girls (well the local one’s) and I got together for a grown up sleepover, crafting weekend. We ate, laughed, ate, drank and crafted. We had butternut squash, pear soup with beet salad and fresh bread. We drank peach champagne with pomegranate seeds. We snacked on maple cookies and black licorice taffy. We made holiday items to decorate with, stockings for new babies and gifts for friends and families. We had such a great time we all vowed to make it an annual tradition the weekend before Thanksgiving. Sending the kids and husbands on their way we will drink champagne, eat great food and make things with our hands – what could be better? Nothing. Thanks my lady friends!
