It's a Tea Party: Sharing our Favorite DIY Gift Projects

nospam@example.com ()

Yes, I'm stuffed! But I know if I don't begin to at least "think" about some Christmas projects, I'll never move from in front of this computer. So I'm "thinking" that I always, always intend to make my own gift baskets instead of picking up those little packages of cheese & crackers or coffee or tea baskets that are outrageously priced for what is put into them. What I need is some inspiration to get me away from my cuppa tea. Do you have fave projects you might want to share? Let's hear them!!!
Personally, I like projects that are suitable to do with children and that offer options for gifting that include most all of the relationships in my life -- you know, something for the teachers, the postman, the sister-in-laws, my fave nurse, even the guys. Gift baskets probably best fill that need. ( After all I love to receive them).

Prepare yourself, because I'm about to drop a major bombshell on you: Celebrities lie about their age! Has your core been shaken, do you need a moment?

OK, so maybe you weren't shocked, or even a little bit surprised. In our youth-obsessed society, of course celebrities lie about how old they are. The fun part comes in when we get to guess how old they really are. Check out the quiz below, can you pick out these stars' true ages? I was pretty stumped, however, I've already admitted that I suck at guessing people's ages.
