Tuesday 4 ~ 2/25/20

Head over to Tuesday's Place for the questions and to visit everyone's answers!

1.  You're having a lovely dinner party for friends and family.  What will you serve for appetizers, main course and dessert?

We're a pretty informal bunch.  Appetizers would probably be cheese and crackers.  The main course would maybe be Lasagna and Garlic Bread.  The dessert is where it is at with Lemon Delight!

 2. Snow storm!    You've got house guests and you're all stuck inside for the night. What do you prepare for dinner.  Will you  watch a movie? Which?

Dinner would have to be something we had on hand so maybe spaghetti or grilled cheese and soup of some kind.  If we're stuck in the house then we probably wouldn't have cable (joys of country life) so we'd probably play a game of 500 Rummy or Monopoly.

3. We are going into New York City for the weekend. Where do you want to go?

I've been to New York City a few times but I've yet to see the Empire State Building or Ground Zero.

4. You are going to night school.  They offer courses in writing short stories, painting,   piano  or guitar lessons,simple home repairs,baking, and gardening.
Which do you pick  ( or make up one of your own)  and why?

I'd pick baking as that is something I love to do.  I'm a fairly decent baker already but I'd love to be able to decorate cupcakes and cakes.

Thankful Thursday ~ 11/29/18

 

 

~It has been a winter wonderland around here lately with snow storms and very below seasonal temperatures.  I decided to break out the wintery "Thankful Thursday" graphic I found when I searched google.   :)

~Thanksgiving was last Thursday and we had a wonderful time with family.  My mom and I cooked (mostly Mom) all morning long with a little bit of help from Laken with the pies.  (She loves to bake!)  The turkey was delicious as were all the side dishes.  The pumpkin pie and Cream Puff Cake were my favorites though :)

~The hubby and I usually go Black Friday shopping every year.  It has become a tradition for just the two of us to have a day together and get the majority of our shopping done.  This year, there really wasn't anything on sale that we HAD to have so we went shopping Wednesday afternoon before the rush.  There was hardly anybody out and about and it was such a relaxing way to shop.  We did go out on Friday afternoon with the girls but only went to Kohl's and Ollie's.  We also have a few items ordered online.  We're almost done with our shopping! :)

~Kaylee went to New York City on a bus trip with my brother and my SIL on Saturday.  I was a little nervous about her going because we were supposed to get some freezing rain and it is about 5-6 hour drive.  Once they got there I was fine.  I trust my brother and SIL completely to take care of my girl and knew they would keep her close.  They met back up with the bus at 10pm and again I was a bit nervous about the traveling.  They ended up getting home around 4am Sunday morning safe and sound :)

~You might have read on my Weekly Weigh In post that I somehow have developed Plantar Fasciitis in my right foot.  It is slowly feeling better as I follow my dr's recommendations.  One of the recommendations is to wear tennis shoes.  I always wear my tennis shoes (FILA's) when I walk for exercise but other than that I'm usually bare footed or wearing my slip on loafers.  It has been a big adjustment for me to have my FILA's on from morning until night.  BUT, I can feel progress so I guess it is worth it :)

What are you thankful for today?
