Countdown to Christmas - One Day to Go! The last crapht to highlight was the thrift shop purchase of a $3.99 bag of plastic ornament bulbs. I had the large brandy snifter on hand. The bulbs fit perfectly!
Among the plastic bulbs were other ornaments, including this upcycled wool tree handmade in Fair Oaks, California, by Kathy Abraham. I appreciate her artistry so wool tree stays with me.
Over these past few months, I have bought bags and bags of ornaments at thrift. Mainly the plastic ones so I can hang them outside if I want. It is like re-living my childhood, these delightful mystery bags of Tchotchkes.
Pattern of the Day is Christmas Bulbs.

Recipe is from Jingle Bells and Pastry Shells (1968).
PRESKUCIAI
Christmas Eve Biscuits
3/4 cup nonfat milk
1 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup warm water
1-1/2 env. active dry yeast
2-1/2 cups sifted whole wheat flour
Warm milk to 105 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, honey, salt, and water.
Mix yeast with flour and add to milk mixture in two additions, blending thoroughly after each addition until you have a firm dough. Form into a ball and place in an oiled bowl, turning once so that dough is oiled on top and bottom. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in warm place (80-85 degrees) about 1 hour or until almost doubled in bulk. Turn out onto lightly floured board and roll into 1/2" thick oblong. Cut into 1/2" strips and cut horizontally to make little squares, or shape into rounds. Bake in hot oven (400 degrees) 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown. Makes about 40 little biscuits.
