IT’S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS…
It sure is starting to look like Christmas here in Vancouver with a beautiful dusting of snow on the ground already. Like many of you, Christmas is my favourite holiday and it’s no secret that I love winter (although Fall is still my favourite season).
I’m so incredibly backed up on blog posts that I thought I’d give you a little mini preview of what is coming down the pipes on my blog this holiday season, complete with some seasonal photos! 
VANCITYALLIE.COM HOLIDAY SEASON 2009 BLOG POST PREVIEW:
Many cooking and baking related blog posts (Christmas cookies hello!), especially as we get closer and closer to Christmas… including *gasp* a fateful attempt at making homemade croissants…
Winter wonderland photos of Vancouver and around our beautiful province…
A gear and gift guide for snowboarding just in time for last minute Christmas shopping… plus lots of snowboarding posts including our upcoming Sun Peaks and Mount Washington trips.
Family, friends, parties for Christmas and New Year’s related posts…
How Allan and I attempted making a 5-course fine dining meal for both our sets of parents when they met for the very first time…
And of course, our last blog post to highlight our time in Kicking Horse and Golden… plus the HD video of the trip!
Hope everyone is enjoying getting ready for Christmas and the holiday season! I know I am!

Can’t believe you are going to Hawaii so soon! I am so jealous!
Actually I bought those cookies in the photo from Whole Foods on the weekend when I was in a pinch… but as you know I do love baking and will definitely be making some holiday treats from scratch in the next couple weeks! (plus some back posts of stuff I’ve already made)

Fun combo of different kinds of posts! Looking forward to reading about your fancy 5 course meal. The last time you posted about making a fancy meal I was floored. I can’t believe the effort involved, including taking pictures! Haha.

I’m going to Calgary (not really warm nor exciting) but I get to see my Mom and my cousin and my brother and my 2 yr old nephew, so I *am* very excited.

You already have posts for your blog lined up, while I struggle to think of something to post on mine? Craziness.
And maybe it’s just the fact that I’m not 31, but instead 13, but I swear that picture with the gingerbread men is dirty..

I want to just bite the heads off of those gingerbread cookies

You’re post has reminded me that gingerbread kicks the ass of every other cookie known to man (except peanut butter).
Merry Christmas Allie.
