Advent Day 16: Peppermint

I like peppermint. It's one of my favorite flavors. Right now, the boys' father and I are going through a bag of peppermint mocha coffee. These peppermint embellishments were one of the main reasons I lost my bet with Minor and bought some collage stuff. They were just too pretty. And I save a small sample for next year's cards. A long time ago, a friend and former co-worker gave me the recipe for her Peppermint Party Pie which is mainly Oreos and whipped cream and marshmallow cream and crushed candy canes.
