Santa's Boot: Pigs In A Blanket
Every year I make pigs in the blanket as an app for Christmas Eve. I let the kids pick the shape to make. This year we made Santa's Boot. This is super easy and fun to make. You need three packages of crescent rolls raw dough and a package of hotdogs. Cut up the hotdogs and layer ontop of the shape of dough. Top with another layer of dough and let the kids decorate.
Christmas Therapy...
I kindof don't want to get out of bed this morning. Partly due to being tired. Partly feeling a little down. Even though my marriage is over and I have no desire to ever fix it, I can't help but feel a little down. They say divorce is like mourning a death. You have these rollercoaster rides of emotions. One minute you're up next minute you're down.
Christmas Eve has always been my favorite. I love my family and we eat a crazy amount of delicious food. All my cousins are there and you walk away feeling so much stronger by the amazing energy of those who love you. So I know tonight will help me. But now I fully understand all the times my friends had breakups and all the times they felt down and lonely. I could so now relate and although this all will pass it's also showing me that I can now relate to those I couldn't in the past. It's showing me how to be more sympathetic towards others. To be able to say I get it now and to really deep down focus on your true self and what you really need to make yourself fully happy again.
