We got a fun surprise in the mail today.

My friend Lynn sent an entire box of homemade candy. I’ve been off sugar for a while, but promptly put myself into a sugar coma with these delightful treats including homemade mounds and three musketeers!

Really there isn’t much else about the day that can compare to a box of homemade candy at Christmas. I think some of the recipes are on her website, so if you want to bless a family (or just yourself) head over to Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures for all her homemade candy recipes.

It’s crazy- but that’s pretty much all I can remember about the day.

My husband has been deployed to the Middle East for 274 days.  These are my real thoughts expressing my heart during his absence.  I appreciate your prayers and kind words as we cope, adapt, and carry on without him until August 2014.  To read from the beginning, click here.
