Festive – Joyous, merry, pertaining to or suitable for a feast (a festive meal, a festive mood)

Festive Times - Using the above definition to create a life of Living where the fun is!

My intention is for this site to be a reflection of the joyful, meaningful, and traditional routines we create to make life fun – see more on the ‘About’ Page – specifically around food and celebration, from extravagant to simple.

Your input is so welcome.  I would love to have  guest bloggers telling the world how you ‘live where the fun is.’  If you are willing to share, please contact me to describe your ideas and recipes (I will make all recipes before I post!). 

I’ve also had a long-time desire to sell/create note and greeting cards. My first sampling is in the Card Gallery, with contributions from ‘The Worst Mother,’ Lin Eleoff, extraordinary Life Coach and Mother (with over 20 years of training!) because I adore the insight and fun of her blog and love her artwork! Also joining the Card Gallery is no-longer-amatuer photographer, Kayte Dolmatch, a friend of my son (and my friend, too) whose photographs I love.

If you have any artistic bent, please let me know! I would be glad to consider creating cards with your art and selling them on this site. We can certainly cut a deal! :)

Some other ideas I have for providing ‘fun’ things are longer birthday cake candles (especially when you have a ton to blow out, extra length means no cake burning!), and paper, pads, and…well, you get the idea.

In the meantime, please check out the first guest blog!  Our very first guest blogger is my fantastic web-site developer and lovely friend, Nona Jordan, The Business Yogini.  She is sharing her philosophy on food and cooking, which provides the basis for much fun and fabulous food in the Jordan household.  Take a look here

And have a very HAPPY NEW YEAR.
