If Tomorrow Starts Without Me

If tomorrow starts without me, and I’m not here to see,

If the sun should rise you find your eyes all filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn’t cry the way you did today,

While thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say.

I know how much you love me, as much as I love you

And each time that you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too.

But when tomorrow starts without me please try to understand,

That an angel came and called my name, and took me by the hand.

He said my place was ready, in heaven far above

And that I’d have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

But as I turned and walked away a tear fell from my eye.

For all my life I’d always thought, I didn’t want to die.

I had so much to live for, so much left yet to do.

It seemed almost impossible that I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays - the good ones and the bad.

I thought of all the love we shared, and all the fun we had.

If I could relive yesterday, just even for a while,

I’d say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realized that this could never be,

For emptiness and memories would take the place of me.

When I thought of worldly things I might miss come tomorrow

I thought of you, and when I did my heart was filled with sorrow.

When I walked through heavens gates I felt so much at home.

God looked down and smiled at me from his great golden throne

He said, “This is eternity and all I’ve promised you”

Today your life on earth has passed but here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last

And since each day is the same there’s no longing for the past.

You have been so faithful so trusting and so true.

Though there were times you did some things you knew you shouldn’t do.

You have been forgiven and now at last you’re free.

So won’t you come and take my hand and share my life with me?

So when tomorrow starts without me don’t think we’re far apart,

For every time you think of me, I’m right there in your heart.

I want a Hippoptamus for Christmas...

I WANT A HIPPOPTAMUS

FOR CHRISTMAS

SHIRLEY TEMPLE

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,

only a hippopotamus will do

Don't want a doll,

no dinky tinker toy

I want a hippopotamus to play with

and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

I don't think Santa Claus will mind,

do you?

He won't have to use a dirty chimney fleu

Just bring him through the front door,

that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on Christmas morning,

creeping down the stairs

Oh, what joy and what surprise,

when I open up my eyes and see a hippo hero

standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,

only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles, no rhinosorusses,

I only like hippopotamusses

and hippopotamusses like me too

~*~

Mom says the hippo would eat me up but then,

teacher says the hippo is a vegetarian

~*~

There's lots of room for him,

in our two car garage

I'd feed him there and wash him there,

and give him his massage

I can see me now on Christmas morning,

creeping down the stairs

Oh, what joy and what surprise,

when I open up my eyes and see a hippo hero

standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas,

only a hippopotamus will do

No crocodiles, no rhinosorusses,

I only like hippopotamusses

and hippopotamusses like me too!

Snowy Chocolate Pinecones Recipe

By Sandra Denneler 
Made with dry cereal and a peanut but­ter mix­ture, it’s part-healthy, part-sweet, and 100% fun. It’s a great edi­ble craft for the kids to make this win­ter when the snow arrives and cabin fever sets in. No bak­ing required—just mix and assemble.

And while they’re a clever snack for kids, these choco­late pinecones also look very chic and ele­gant at a win­ter wed­ding recep­tion or other snow-themed event. Mother Nature never tasted so sweet.


What You Need


3 cups Chex Choco­late cereal or com­pa­ra­ble (I used Choco­late Fiber One cereal)
6 pret­zel sticks (I used the thicker dip­ping sticks)
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup Nutella (choco­late hazel­nut spread)
3 table­spoons but­ter, softened
1 cup pow­dered sugar


How-To

Step 1

Mix the peanut but­ter, Nutella, but­ter, and pow­dered sugar in a bowl.

Step 2

Take a pret­zel stick and mold some of the peanut but­ter mix­ture around it, form­ing a slight cone shape.

Step 3

Hold­ing it steady by using the tip of the pret­zel as a han­dle, start insert­ing pieces of cereal into the peanut but­ter mix­ture in a sym­met­ri­cal pat­tern around the stick. Add more cereal pieces, stag­ger­ing them as you move upward, until you get near the top.

Step 4

Cut sev­eral cereal pieces into tri­an­gles and add those to the top (most pinecone scales get smaller toward the end.)

Step 5

If your pinecone is get­ting too tall (like mine were), cut off the top of the pret­zel and add a dol­lop of peanut but­ter mix­ture to cover it. Insert a few more tri­an­gle pieces of cereal into the top of the pinecone.

Step 6

For a “snowy” effect, dust the pinecone with pow­dered sugar.

 

So now for the big ques­tion…. How do you eat a pinecone? Sim­ple! Pluck it apart, piece-by-delicious-piece.
