I'm trying to post some Christmas Crafts this month and a coworker graciously offered to do a guest post.

According to her, this is one simple craft. She is doing it with her entire class and the example features her own son's pic.

What did you make this weekend?

I'm guest posting over at Turtle Droppings today while Tortuga is off enjoying some blog free time.

Inspired by this post about my SUCKATION last year I decided to write up a post about how you (and hopefully I) can avoid another disaster this year.

We leave for camp on the 7th.

However, I have made some preemptive moves to avoid a similar disaster.

• We are not camping in a tent; we are camping in a cottage.
• I am bring at least two bottles of wine.

Here's hoping Tortuga is having a wonderful time. Be sure to visit her and leave us both a comment, will ya.

They're like crack....we need them.
