Homespun Holidays
Nov. 14, 2008 • 3:20 PM
Holiday season is upon us. I wanted to tell you all about a great new ebook that is currently for sale over at The Old Schoolhouse Magazine Schoolhouse Store!
It is called Homespun Holidays and it is filled with seasonal goodies!
This wonderful ebook focuses on Fall and Winter Holidays and contains over 80 favorites from the TOS Staff. The ideas are really great and the recipes are tried and recommended. And... the secret's out... as one staff member even shares a secret family recipe!
This ebook shares ideas for family traditions that can bring you and your loved ones closer together and closer to the Lord. You may wish to try some (or all) of them!
There are home decorating ideas like welcome signs, trash bag wreaths, scarecrows, window paintings, and many more. I really like the Let your light shine pumpkins! They are such a great idea and good testimony for the Lord.
Plus they have tips for entertaining that will encourage you yo celebrate the holidays without losing your good cheer.
Games and Activities are throughout this ebook too! I like the Thankful ABCs and hope to do this with my children in just a few days. Going to Mamaws Bingo will make holiday travel smooth sailing. We are going to be doing the Jesse tree activity!
There are also book reviews for some great Fall and Winter stories. They also have added activities to go along with each book.
Great seasonal poetry is shared that is both humorous and inspirational. I laughed at Thanksgiving's 8000 Calorie Poem.
Then there are wonderful crafts and gifts to make like a no-sew scarf, fabric gift bags, layered-in-a-jar cocoa drink mix, and MUCH more. Not only do they explain how to make them but they also have photographs.
Like I mentioned before, they also went into their kitchens are shared some of their favorite recipes for these seasons. I hope to try the Autumn Soup soon as well as the Gingerbread pancakes. We might be doing a Christmas brunch with some family so the Holiday Brunch Casserole will be just-right for that. They also have recipes for cookies, candies, muffins, more soups, casseroles, pies and even some peppermint cocoa. What's even better is that these recipes are on colorfully decorated recipe cards that you can just print and cut to add to your own recipe box!
If this sounds like an ebook you would like to have, you can find it here at the Old Schoolhouse Magazine's Schoolhouse Store for $12.45.

Hello! Happy Saturday. I'm coming over to visit you at your blog to ask you to help us pray. As you know, I live in Southern California and our state is facing crazy black outs and fires... all around us. I wrote a little on my blog. Can you please pray for us? It's a little scary. Thanks.
