Well I just put up the Christmas Tree in the living room. It looks so good. There were 4 sections and I had to place the bottom in the tree holder and remove the giant red twisty hehe. All the branches are on these metal wires that fall down when you remove the twisty tie, it’s really cool. I haven’t had a christmas tree for a very long time. It took awhile to fluff it up but I got all 4 sections together and fluffed and it looks awesome. Now all we need to do is put the decorations on it. We got these shiny balls from the dollar store (they were actually $2) green and red and silver that look like little disco balls hehe. They are plastic so they wont break which is really good. I like decorations that I don’t have to worry about getting stuck in the arch of my foot. We also have a bunch of Megs decorations that she used on her tree. As I said in my last blog about Christmas tree, were going to put candy canes on it and I’m going to crochet some decorations. It will be so nice.

Christmas Tree
We are supposedly going to go to Sears and buy a pre-lit fake christmas tree. The last time I had a Christmas tree I was 19 years old and my neighbors in the apartment building who were all gang members asked me to give them my tree with all decorations and I said no and they threatened me and so what else could I do? I gave it to them. So this will be my first tree in 18 years. I had no idea when I was 19 years old that I’d have to wait 18 years to get another tree. I can’t wait to get it. We have some old decorations from our friend Meg from when she passed away, nobody wanted her Christmas ornaments so we took them. Also Opal has some decorations and ornaments which we can dust off and use. I’m just afraid that they are too fragile. I’m also going to be crocheting some snowflakes for the tree so all is not lost. I want to also make those little mini christmas stockings to hang on the tree branches with little mini candy canes inside them. That should be cute. I will have to put those instructions in my crafts section here.

Back Up And Running
Ok I finally got my website back up and running. I was having problems with the horizontal line (candy cane above and under this entry) but I got it all figured out finally. I had to go into “photo shop” to move the icing in the background so it’s wider so I can fit all the text in that space. The Christmas bulbs were making it too big. It’s all good now hehe.

Gingerbread Theme
I just bought a Christmas theme for my website (As you can see the Gingerbread theme) so this will be my Christmas theme. I will still be looking for a regular theme that I will use after the holidays are over. I’ve only made the front page with this theme so far but I will be working on the rest of my website later. It’s going to be a job to get it all done hehe.

3D Cookie Cutters
I bought these 3D cookie cutters from Publishers Clearing House even though I knew I couldn’t bake cookies but now I can WOOHOO! So now I can make some cookies for Christmas. I might even make them as Christmas presents. There are several different shapes like snowman and a Christmas tree etc. I’ll have to get a picture for the crafts section when I make them.

Cici’s Pizza
Why doesn’t California have a Cici’s Pizza yet?
When I went to visit my aunts in Texas for Christmas 2006 they took me to a Cici’s Pizza and I was in pizza heaven. It’s a pizza buffet with I don’t know, 20 different pizzas to choose from at the bar but there are many possibilities like macaroni and cheese pizza.
If they don’t have it out you can request it, they will make it and then bring you 2 slices before putting the rest out for everyone to take. They also have a small salad bar and a dessert bar which is really good by the way. They have like a coffee cake in pizza shape so you take a slice of the dessert. And as usual a soda fountain with all you can drink.
If I had the money and business degree I’d buy the rights to put one in Bakersfield.
