We had a beautiful moon. I wonder if that is where my energy comes from?
This is a full size feather tree. The ones I have are really feather trees but modern not the lovely old antiques. I love the candles I bought this year on the tree. They are remote control and battery operated.
This picture is at a weird angle this tree is not leaning. This is the first time in several years I have set this tree up.
It is filled with my treasured ornaments.
I have been collecting for years.
I love them all so much. The very best part is my daughter loves them also!
Well it's cookie time!
Turtles so easy the hardest part is unwrapping the rolos.
I tried 2 new to me cookie recipes. The cookies on the left stoll needs one side dipped in chocolate. Coconut almond. The cookies on the right are a gluten free gingerbread. They are good just not my favorites.
Those cookies look delicious.
ReplyDeleteNice happy photo of you two
I would love to have a full size feather tree!!! Yours is a beauty and the battery candles are just perfect.
ReplyDeleteI haven't made those turtles in many years. They are so yummy.
That was a great picture of you and hubby. I bet you haven't changed much at all.
Your turtle cookies look delicious. I don't know why but I never made Turtle Cookies before. I must give them a try.
ReplyDeleteYour place is looking so festive. I love your trees.
When you find out where you get your energy, let me know. I caught a head cold. My first one since before Covid.
Take care.
Hugs, Julia
I have never heard of a feather tree, Cathy, but like seeing yours and it is wonderful to have such treasured ornaments. I haven't yet thought bout cookie baking, but will do a couple of recipes in the next couple weeks - chocolate chips for sure, molasses cookies and peanut butter - all favorites here.
ReplyDeleteLovely full size feather tree. The only feather tree I own is one made by me a few years ago with real goose feathers. It was fun to make at the time. Cookies look delicious and will be enjoyed by those who partake.
ReplyDeleteThe cookies look good. Gluten free, please.
ReplyDeleteThey were tasty.
DeleteYour decor is lovely. I think your trees are beautiful and it's fun to bring out the treasured things every so often. We don't have the tree up yet and I still have a few things left to put out. I'm slowly getting into the holiday mode as Amazon has started bringing the items I ordered! Yummy looking cookies! I'd go for the turtles myself. I might have to try making those. I think your energy comes from not having to work and taking time to rest and enjoy this season!
ReplyDeleteYour trees are both so lovely! The cookies look good. I have not heard of Turtle cookies.
ReplyDeleteThese are so easy made with pretzels and rolo candies
DeleteGood morning Your trees are lovely, I have never heard of a feather tree. yummy looking cookies
ReplyDeleteWas thinking this morning that I need to start making cookies except kitchen project gets finished next week so must wait. I probably won't make as many this year because we eat too many of them.
ReplyDeleteI give the bulk of them away but if course I taste test to many

ReplyDeleteSend some of that energy my way, please! So glad to see your decorations...such pretty trees! I love the sentimental ornaments, that's what makes the tree so special, the sweet memories. Enjoy the season...put your feet up from time to time and just settle in to relax!

Beautiful trees. Love the feather one too. I have two but not as big as yours. Adding your special ornament makes it even better. Enjoy the season. Janice
ReplyDeleteLove feather trees and those candles, in fact, I got the same type but red. We have one skinny tree, not enough room for a big one. Love that photo of the two of you.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
I am late to the party but will just echo the sentiment of others here - that feather tree!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my what a beauty - last pix is a beauty too 😉
Baked treats and a feather tree? I'm in!
