St. Nick visited our house last night and look what (s)he brought me! 😉 Excited to jump into the #xmasmystery buddy read with @Tamra @ForeverNerdy @rubyslippersreads and @swatreads 🎄🎄🎄
Alas, I am in cookie baking hell (#holidaybakerproblems 😂) so I feel really behind on Litsy! There‘s a bunch of great swap sign-ups happening that I need to catch up on!
LeahBergen You must do the #MugLove swap ! @TheKidUpstairs is hosting. 👍🏻 7y
jbhops Get on the mug swap! 7y
rubyslippersreads Great photo! It reminds me of my childhood family tradition of a train under the Christmas tree. And I'll chime in with—don't miss the #MugLove swap! 😊 7y

Tamra Super yay! I‘m really enjoying it and am limiting myself to a chapter a day - otherwise I‘d be done in a flash! Love the pic. ❣️ 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 I‘m adding @robinb to our buddy read ❤️She bought the book too & can‘t wait to join in! I‘m excited! I‘m going to start next week. St. Nick needs to come to my house early, I could use some things, like a break. Lol 😂 So I feel for you on your baking extravaganza. I love this picture so beautiful 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 @Tamra oh good! I‘m a slow reader. ☺️ 7y
TheKidUpstairs Yes! Come join the #MugLove swap! Sign up link on my page - open until Monday night! 7y
aschermetz @TheKidUpstairs Definitely plan on signing up! Yay! 🙌 7y
Tamra @ForeverNerdy oh my gosh yes! Welcome @robinb ! I hope you like it as much as I do. I‘m forcing myself to stop at the end of each chapter. 😅 7y
aschermetz @ForeverNerdy do you not do the St. Nick tradition in Texas? He comes on the night of the 5th and leaves treats/small gifts. We get our Christmas jammies and the family yearly ornament every year from St. Nick! 7y
Tamra @ForeverNerdy this is totally unstructured so any pace is good. It‘s just fun knowing others are reading with you. 😁 7y
aschermetz Welcome @robinb! 7y
aschermetz @ForeverNerdy And YES on the baking!! I have six dozen cookies due for a local salon holiday party tomorrow so I guess I‘ll sleep never. 😂😂😂 7y
Tamra @aschermetz 😮 7y
aschermetz @Tamra 😂😂😂No worries! Thankfully they are mini-sized or I would have said hell no. 7y
Tamra @aschermetz I love to cook, but I get impatient baking cookies. I baked a dozen breakfast cookies today and that was enough. Done, done, done. 😆 7y
swatreads Great picture!! I'm just done with chapter one😁 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 @aschermetz oh my goodness that is still a lot of cookies! You are awesome. I love baking this time of year but it takes so much time. I think that tradition is wonderful. We only do 3 presents per child in our house. Something to read, something to wear, & something to play with. Santa brings a present also on Christmas Eve. But I think I might start doing the holiday jammies in the early month. That sounds awesome. ❤️❤️🎄 great tradition 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 @Tamra I agree, it is fun knowing others are reading with you ❤️❤️ 7y
robinb Nice photo @aschermetz ! Thanks all for the welcome to the #xmasmystery buddy read! I‘ve never participated in a buddy read before, so I‘m a newbie...be gentle please. 🤣🤣 Looking forward to getting started! @ForeverNerdy @Tamra @rubyslippersreads @swatreads @batsy (edited) 7y
aschermetz @ForeverNerdy I LOVE the three present thing!!! So great. 🎄🎄 7y
aschermetz @robinb I have never done a buddy read either! We can be newbies together! ❤️ 7y
aschermetz @Tamra LOL. I ONLY do cookies, and it‘s a stress reliever for me! But cakes, cupcakes, etc? Hell to the no. 😂 7y
Tamra @aschermetz nothing to this one, just hopefully enjoy the book! 😄 7y
Tamra @aschermetz 👍🏾 7y
robinb @aschermetz oh good! I was a little embarrassed admitting to that on a literary forum. 😊 7y
Tamra @robinb I‘m new too, so no worries. 😊 7y
