My daughter has officially allowed Christmas music to be played in the house, since it is post Thanksgiving. My poor, sad daughter lost her first furry baby this weekend; her beloved Beebert. It was love at first sight between my daughter and Beebert (although his real, official name is Ginger Baker). It is a puzzlement.

I know that it being the day after Thanksgiving, probably the last thing you want to look at is another dessert item. But my daughter and son-in-law do and my daughter has recently been enamored of salted caramels. But I thought this might be ok, because it is a little sweet and savory. I think I’ll give it a try!

But it has been around as long as my daughter can remember, so it can never, ever be changed. Every once in a while, I feel like I’d like to try a new one, but my daughter would be devastated. It’s not the one from my childhood, to be truthful, I really don’t know where it came from.

Wasn’t Thanksgiving just a few days ago and the election couldn’t have been more than a week ago, right? It is now officially 5 days until Christmas and I have bought just 3 presents.

But Thanksgiving is on the way, and then Christmas, so there will be more sweets to deal with. My daughter didn't. I can’t send it to school, the teacher would kill me! Is there a place to reasonably donate leftover Halloween candy? Maybe it should all go in the freezer to be doled out on a more reasonable schedule.
