Home for the Holidays

This year my family is coming in town to visit for the holidays and I really want to make my home look special! In the past we have always traveled to my mom’s or my sister’s house and they both really have a knack for making the holidays memorable both by decorating and cooking. I've been trying to come up with some new holiday decorating ideas as well as some different holiday recipes for several weeks but haven't come up with anything exciting. Then, while my daughter was taking her daily nap I decided to watch some tv. I turned on my TVByDirect and there was Martha Stewart showing off all her latest Christmas decorating ideas! I couldn’t believe how many neat and unusual suggestions she had for making a home feel warm and inviting for the holidays. She had wonderful tips for your front door, your tree and your table. Not to mention the delicious recipes she prepared. I can’t wait to try out her ideas. I’m thinking that this Christmas is going to be one my family talks about for years!
