Last year, I decided to have our end-of-the-year inventory sale before Christmas. I’m doing the same thing this year. If you get my newsletter, you know about the sale already.

From December 3-10 everything at pieceocake.com will be 20% off (excluding Stella lamps and any eBook that comes from C&T). Enter DECSALE in the coupon code box and the discount will be applied. (If you forget to enter the code, Lorna will still give you the discount.)

I grew up in Oklahoma City and at this time of year B.C Clark Jewelers always has a before-Christmas sale that they advertise with a famous-in-Oklahoma jingle.  Once you hear it, I promise that you will never forget it :-). Every time I hear it I take a trip in the way-back machine to my youth…

In what is becoming a tradition, I am leaving town tomorrow and will be gone during the sale. Lorna is staying home with Elanor, Bear, my mom, and your orders! She actually prefers to handle lots of orders without distractions… and sometimes I can be a distraction. She’ll work hard to ship your orders quickly but depending on the volume, it may take a little longer than normal to ship. I may run out of some things. Lorna will order more of whatever we run out of if she can. She will let you know if something is backordered.

I leave tomorrow for Disneyworld with Jack (7), his dad/my son/Lorna’s husband, Christopher, and Jack’s best friend—his other grandmother, Judy (Lorna’s mom). Three adults to one 7-year-old is actually going to be a very good thing. We are each looking forward to this trip. Disneyworld is all lit up for Christmas which will make it especially magical.

I’ll post pictures on facebook and instragram if you want to follow along. If I have time, I’ll write some blog posts but mostly I hope to just chill out with Jack, Chris, Judy—and Elsa, a princess I have grown quite fond of :-).
