Merry Christmas weekend! Cait and I are both enjoying some time on the east coast with our families for the holidays. After lots of baking, shopping, decorating, wrapping and then a little more baking, I think I’m finally ready for all of the week’s festivities. Things will be a little quieter here on the blog for the next few days as Cait and I take in some downtime.
