I got home today and I'm glad to report that Christmas is officially here.
I squealed when I walked in the door and saw this package on the dining room table, I knew just who it was from.
Wow, that's a lot of blurring out .
If you look in the top left hand corner, you'll see that it's from my best blogging buddy, Maria!!!
We exchanged addresses a while ago to send each other Christmas cards but she really went above and beyond...
Inside the box was a sweet little container with a card on top that read:
Seriously? How cute is she!? But that's not the best part.
She has been baking up a storm lately, like the little Betty Crocker that she is, and look what she sent me y'all.
Homemade oatmeal raisin and sugar cookies.
Maria, your man has a great catch, these cookies are amazing. Readers, I am greedy will not share my cookies with you. Go to Maria's blog and become her friend so she can bake you your own.
Yes, I've already eaten half the container and those Peeps will never see the light of day. Glad I went to the gym today because that cancels these out, right? Or shall I just pretend that you forget to tell me they were calorie free, sugar free, carb free and still amazingly delicious?
You are awesome girl, thank you so much!
I, however, waited until the very last minute to order my Christmas cards. Using catprint.com, I saved myself about $5 instead of using WalMart and they'll be here next week. I'm crossing my fingers that I can get them in the mail before Christmas.
I can always recruit Bodie to help address if I need him to.

Awww, what a sweet and thoughtful holiday gift! I've never heard of catprint but their prices look really good. My vistaprint cards aren't coming until next week too - fingers crossed!
I'm supposed to be on a diet, but boy, what I wouldn't do for some of those cookies right now!
Wow!! That is so cool... & delicious. I love how many amazing bloggers are out there :)
Awwww! Super cute!
Yipee Hooray!! I'm glad they got there safely! Yay :D
That's so sweet! I haven't had any Christmas cookies yet this season, but I hope to soon! Those look delicious!
packages are the best. ESPECIALLY when they contain edible treats...and ESPECIALLY when those edible treats are oatmeal cookies - my fav! :)
ahhh!
yay for christmas, and cards, and your ADORABLE little pup :)
SNOWMAN PEEPS!? love!
Your pup is so adorable!!
Just remember, whatever you are eating, whatever is still left in the pan, that is what contains all the calories/fat grams :)
I LOVE surprises like that! (hint hint!!) :)
Oh so nice! Good for you for chowing down! I am making cookies for an exchange and I may have eaten a dozen in batter. Bodie is so cute!
Peeps are my favorite too. During college in the Spring semesters I used to binge on Peeps around Eastertime just before going to take mid-terms. Best sugar rush ever! Hope you are a member of the Peeps fan club!
Yikes I still haven't taken our Christmas photos. Plans are to take them this next Tuesday meaning I will need to pop them in the mail the next day... hello 24 hour walmart.
what a great gift! so fun to get packages in the mail, isn't it? oh and i saw those peeps the other day, they're pretty adorable.
Aw that is so sweet and totally thoughtful!
I've said it once and I'll say it a million times, I WANT YOUR DOG. That is a super cute package though!
What? It's oatmeal, it's raisins... it's healthy. LOL
Adorable care package. Maria rules.

WHAT? Snowman PEEPS?!?! I thought those delectable treats only came out at easter? you mean to tell me they have them for multiple seasons?!! delicious! enjoy your fun package!
How cute! So fun this time of year & especially fun to receive packages ... with cookies! P.s. Oatmeal Raisin is my favorite cookie...starbucks has the best one's. And p.s.s. I too am only working out to cancel out all the goodies I'm consuming.
