It's Too Early People!!

Just because I look forward to things 3 months ahead doesn’t mean I don’t also look forward to tomorrow as well

I failed to take it down in January...2016...

I've already started...
I've got a bunch of butter in the freezer already.
Soon I'll be loading up on chocolate and sugar and flour and other ingredients for the cookies and candies.

I'll really get going after Halloween.

And then there's the fever pitch stuff for Thanksgiving.

And after Thanksgiving it's full production mode. Gotta find the suit though...I've been growing my belly and beard. It's going to be awesome.

i'm looking forward to celebrateing Harvest, Thanksgiving & Christmas i'm looking forward to seeing Pumpkin Spice stuff in stores

I haven't taken my Christmas lights down from last year - there's always that one guy in the neighborhood, right?

well, I am just offering my neighbors a service in 2020 - something benign to complain about.

You're welcome

My wife thinks so, anyway....

soo cool

I just noticed that eggnog is on sale at my grocery store

Fa-la-
la-la-la-
la-la-

LA!

I'm making lots of plans and purchases already for Christmas.
An 11lb brick of fine belgian semisweet chocolate.
I found butter on sale the other day....grabbed 8 lbs.
I found chocolate chips on sale today...
Grabbed 6 pkgs of them.

Lots to go and do yet...lots and lots.

Thousands of pieces of fine truffles and thousands of cookies don't happen by good wishes and "shoulda's". They happen by carefully and meticulously shopping and stocking up on supplies and planning.

I've seen big 25# bags of flour and sugar at my local Kroger. Gonna relieve them of those here very soon.

Got surplus booze from last year...might make some more Gran Mariner JIC.

But I still need to candy a bag of orange peels. (That can be done soon)

Caramel needs butter and cream...

Dried cherries....kinda pricey but I'll need 5# like usual.

Coconut flakes...need a few pounds and some almonds...

Turtles need whole pecans.

White chocolate!
Need to find a 5# bag of pieces like I did last year.

White chocolate chips...
Macadamia nuts
Cashews
Mint chocolate chips
Cocoa powder
Ginger bread spices...
Raspberries?
Blackberries?
Blueberries?

Butterscotch
Oatmeal
Peanut butter

sounds yummy
