Here’s a must share!  Colleen has this fabulously sweet-snack recipe she makes during the holidays… White Chocolate Covered Snack Mix!  And, I finally asked her to share with me.  I can’t wait to make the mix in the next few days!  All I can say is baker beware; and, welcome to your new addiction.  This mix will speak to you from the little containers in the kitchen while you’re trying to sleep!!!  YUM! YUM! YUH-MEEEE!

Here’s a little merry-merry “PEACE!” from Wendy & April who are bundled-up for a busy afternoon in the Cutting-Up Warehouse.  Let’s just say it’s COLD and you could hear teeth chattering!  Good thing their hearts are so warm!  Bundle up, sisters!  Aren’t they adorable?!

SWEET!!!! Cutting-Up is overjoyed (Wahoo!) to share some of our latest press! Our “Love and Friendship” mouse pad was selected and featured in the new 2008 issue of Justine Magazine [December/January]. Here’s a shot of the page! It was featured at the top of a right-hand page just opposite a copy of Miley Cyrus’ new book! Thanks to all for your support of “Love & Friendship!!! Check out the publication or link to the Justine Magazine’s Blog and send their staff your great thoughts, cool ideas, and festive feedback!

I’m ever thankful Colleen & I have been a part of each other’s lives so long now that we are a part of each other’s families. We love sharing our profound friendship with you all. And, Cutting-Up continues to be an extension of our great love we have for others, for which you too are now a great part! In the pics here we shared measuring cups, family, friendships, and taste tests the night before Thanksgiving preparing for Colleen’s great feast! We hope you all had moments like these to share with you and yours… and that they ripple with warmth in all your days!
