A special card for you this Christmas – this year I decided to do an electronic one. It was a BIG decision for me for I love designing and making cards, going through my Christmas list, addressing the envelopes ~ even bringing them to the Post Office or dropping it off to you. I was disappointed until I started to make this … it was so much fun. (And besides – you two are enjoying the east coast so this electronic card works even better). I hope you like it.
And, of course, I am including a recipe as always (at bottom of page). Audrey, if you’ve never made these before, you’re going to love it. I tried it out and it was SOOOO easy. (Perc, you will enjoy the eating – the making not so much. hahaha)
Sure hope you are doing well and enjoying the experience of being in your new ‘home away from home’. I can’t wait for you to get back in the Spring though
Merry Christmas
Audrey and Perc
I wish you a Christmas
filled with
Hugs, Laughter, Smiles and Warmth
And, may the coming year
bring you
blessings beyond measure.

Remove from heat, add eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition (I use hand mixer for this part).
