Yes! Look at my powdered-sugar-stained fingers and know it to be true!
Actually, I prolly shouldn't keep talking about food. I feel so fat right now its not even funny. *Sigh* But its a good fat feeling.
Fact! Ordering things online is really fun. I guess that there is just something about clicking that big green button that says BUY! Oh yes. I love that button so much.
This is what we made for our door. Gumdrops taste like toothpaste, just in case you were wondering. Oh, and they were so heavy that they broke the hook that it was hanging on and shattered into a thousand-million pieces. Okay, more like four.

Pretty cool right?
I thought that I had just better say something really important. I really, really do not like the new Narnia movies. They make it ugly. Oh, and their stupid. Just in case anyone was wondering my opinion.
I wouldn't be so mad about them if everyone, who I thought had good judgement, LOVED them!
Its like how everyone in the entirety (almost) of the world likes Hannah Montana. You cannot get away from her! and these movies too! My older sisters just say they hate them, calmly and sensibly, and then ignore them. All my friends gush over them. So I either have to put in my opinion, which even annoys me after a while, Or leave. I left... this morning at church and talked with the eight year-olds. *Sigh*
Jack would be sad. THEY ARE MISSING THE WHOLE POINT!
I just read The Dawn Treader. Love it. I think that the most amazing part is when Eustace is being transformed back into a human.
(They ruin this scene in the movie)
Aslan tells him that to get into the bath he has to undress. He tries and fails three times. Alsan tears the skin off of Eustace's Dragon-y back and finally he can get in that beautiful pool. And when he comes out he is human again.
This is a perfect display of humanity and our depravity. No matter how we try, we can never get to heaven without Jesus doing pretty much everything for us. We have to obey and thank God in heaven that his son has stooped low enough to help us.
Another thing about this story is how much it hurt. Sanctification and salvation are hard and painful. It is not easy. Heaven is in the opposite direction of where our sinful nature leads us. We are challenging our very depravity. Or, God challenges it and conquers it. And by his mercy he lets us tag along. Thank goodness.
Oh and when Aslan sends the albatross, or is the albatross, to help them get out of the horrible dark island. That's amazing too. God and his mercy... otherwise we would be stuck in the most horrible, black, nightmarish... place and we would never be able to get out.
I ReALLY LOVE CHRISTMAS FOOD!!! (and also mostly I love of all is the fact that Jesus was born on Christmas. That's what I love mostly)
Yup, I do.
Alot.
Merry Christmas.
