I love the holiday season.

just the other day I received
the best early Christmas present yet-

Whippets!

three boxes of heaven filled, chocolate covered clouds.

my sweet, sweet mamma, 
she know the way to my heart.




I am one happy gal.

  3. Mamas always know how to spoil their babies, even when the babies are all grown up! Love the braid, by the way! Is it a fishtail?

    1. They are so good. I happened to be wandering around a specialty grocery story, whilst suffering from some serious hanger, when I stumbled upon these bad boys, and have been addicted ever since. They are hard to find though!

    1. I'm not totally sure, I know you can order them online, and I'm pretty sure they are at most specialty grocery stores.

  17. I haven't had those in years! I know them as Viva Puffs, but I'm not sure if that's a Canadian thing or just a me thing haha The raspberry ones were always my favorite. I love checking the mail this time of year. And Mom's are the best!
