Today is the first day of Autumn. The beginning of my favorite time of year. Holidays!!!! 100 days of holiday recipes begin today. The last couple of years, I have been really lax on my holiday baking. One of my dreams for the longest time has been to have the house totally decorated for every holiday, bake every weekend and have the kids playing doing their thing and just enjoy everything each holiday has to offer. Craft fairs, halloween, christmas.
The last few years, I haven't been doing much to fulfill this dream. In 2007, my oven went to kaput right before thanksgiving. In 2008, I was 6 months pregnant and in the hospital giving birth on December 22. In 2009 the boys were 9 months old and I was still recovering from post partum depression, not fully back to myself. I keep saying these first few years when the boys are little, I can sacrifice this desire for baking and such while they demand so much of my attention. But you know, as I write this, these all are just excuses. I just really need to find a balance for all of the things in my life.
