Happy Friday and welcome to Best of the Weekend and our first party of December! A warm welcome from your BOTW hosts – Sheryl from Lady Behind the Curtain, Deb from Cooking on the Front Burner, me and Lisa from Cooking with Curl and me!
I can’t believe it’s December 5th! At my age, you’d THINK I’d have Christmas prep down to a science. Oh, I have it down to a science alright – the science of panic! ? I seem to be quite the expert at getting further behind each year instead of ahead. Anyone Christmas tree shopping or chopping this weekend?

When you link up to Best of the Weekend, your posts will be be seen on all four of our blogs. We have a brand new, Pinterest Best of the Weekend Features board, where we’ll be pinning all of our features each week. I also pin, tweet and share as many of your fabulous posts as possible all week long, which I love doing!
As always, to my wonderful non-blogging friends – just click on any picture in the link-up and it will take you straight to the blog of the talented person who so generously shared with us! Each week, Lisa, Deb and I will each feature the most clicked link and our favorites, so be sure to stop by all four of our blogs to see if you were featured! Visit Lisa here, Deb here, and Sheryl here.
Keep partying all weekend – join us at these parties hosted by our lovely blogging buddies!
Let’s see….ok, jingle some bells and flash some twinkle lights for our features, please!
