Cooties, comfort food and Christmas lights

This afternoon and evening was relaxing, and fabulous.  Tony put the Christmas lights up outside (and was actually happy to do it, *and* went out and bought more.  I think the fact that this is our first Christmas in our house has something to do with it...)  Leila and I made some chocolate chip cookies with regular chocolate chips and mint chips while the lights were being done.

When Tony came in we played one of my very favorite childhood games, Cooties!  My mom got it for Leila on Black Friday for only $3!!

She loved playing, and picking out which parts to put on her cootie!

 

Sugar wanted to watch:

After Cooties, I made this with a few alterations (smoked cheddar instead of blue cheese, wheat bread instead of white and added peas) and it was d e l i c i o u s !!!!!  After dinner we watched "Elf", and now (as I type) Tony is giving Leila a bath and I hear her blowing bubbles.

Happy Sunday!
