So I love to cook. OK....I love to throw things together. I can follow a recipe but I usually just use it as a guideline. I add more of this and less of that. I find I am a hero in the kitchen.

We look at the tradition of taking a tree from outside, putting it inside, and throwing trinkets on it so it looks pretty. We're looking at Christmas trees.

This one is a little bit more complicated than the stocking tradition. You have to go way back to the Druids and old Norse mythology.

I remember my very first Christmas as a single mom. Faith was 3 years old. I was quite nervous about how I was going to make this all work.

It is that time of year and usually you get asked if you want to participate in Secret Santa at work. Well if you decide to go that route here are some cool gifts you can add to your list.

Many claim it all started with a legend about Ol' Saint Nick.

I'm sure a lot of us are still in a Thanksgiving coma. You may still be eating a lot of turkey. You may be making a lot of soups or casseroles. Maybe you are throwing all your leftovers into dough and frying it up.

Ag life isn't ever easy.

Personally, I don't do Christmas lights on the house (I live in an apartment) and I wait to put up the tree until almost the second week of December.

The petition wraps up by using the hashtag #PleaseStayAQHA, and then it states that "Amarillo is your home."
