January Decor!
Once the Christmas tree is taken down and put back in storage, and the rest of the yuletide decorations are put away the house can take on an empty feel. Post holiday let-down is a reality that affects many people. After the hustle and bustle, the glitz and glamor of the holidays putting the house in order can be downright depressing.
Things that can be used to give your home warmth and interest to your January table decor are:
•Pine cones
•Pine boughs in arrangements
•Pillar candles in spicy scents
•Winter themed collector's plates
•Lamp shades in rich tones or even flannel plaids
Also, add warm, soft throws to your sofa and chairs and a touch of bright winter white to your decor...light a fire and enjoy the quiet of January!

TGIF!
It’s Friday!! We’re all exhausted and nobody wants to cook. So here’s one of my go-to dinner recipes.
Pre-made pizza crust
Pesto sauce from a jar
Tomatoes
Mozzarella (fresh is best)
Seasonings to taste (oregano, basil, salt and pepper)
Throw the crust in the oven (use temperature on crust package) to warm a few minutes. Spread pesto on top, sprinkle with oregano and garlic salt. Spread thinly sliced tomato slices, top with cheese. Let bake until top is lightly browned.
It’s SO easy and delicious. I add lots of basil when that’s in season. Feel free to add other toppings as you so desire but recognize the simplicity is part of what makes it so yummy!

Pretty With Pine!
•Gather your supplies. You'll need a fun lantern, a few wildflowers or grocery store daisies, pine branches from your yard, clippers, and a ring of Oasis floral foam.
•Soak your floral foam in water.
•While your Oasis is soaking, clip pieces from your pine branches. Make each branch about six inches long, but vary the length a bit to keep the wildlife look.
•Poke your pine branches into top and sides of the Oasis. Place them about an inch apart at first and fill in after you've created a good base.
•Add fun, brightly colored flowers like Gerbera daisies toward the inside of your Oasis ring.
•Fill in blank areas in the Oasis with more pine branches and with bits of reindeer moss.
•Add a lantern to the center for a fun, campout look. A checkered tableclock completes the look
