This Week Preview

Carlyn has managed to con Tod and Barb into doing THANKS FOR EXISTING stockings. Stuffed in kitchen drawers, medicine cabinets and tool chests… we already have stocking stuffer sized examples of human ingenuity all over the home. We want to give these “stocking stuffers” center stage. “Cheers!” to the tiny miraculous things we might take for granted every day! We’ll update this post after the broadcast! It has to be a surprise after all!
