I totally forgot to blog last night/this morning. Color my face red. I just was busy doing a bit of research and reading and thinking and it was all about THE BOOK. That's how I will refer to it from now on. It's almost like I was thrown back in time again and was so totally engrossed in THE BOOK that I could have starved and never noticed it.
I happened to look over to my right only because I caught a glimpse of something that didn't belong there and it was a box. It was addressed to me and said it was a gift on the label. I knew it had to be from Carol (she is the only one that sends me gifts these days) and it was more of the coffee she has gotten me addicted to....LOL. I love her generous heart but she has her boys that need her help more than I do. I think the Beast would eventually break down and pay the price because he hasn't found anything he likes as well. Love you, Carol, my dear, sweet friend. Now...stop! It's almost Christmas time and you have to get ready for your son and daughter-in-law's visit, right? Get your presents wrapped and ready for your family. I am wishing for an end to the drought for you for my gift to you with a little help from Mother Nature. I know that would be the most appreciated of all (if the snow continues in the mountains, it should be a shoo-in!)
It was a really nice day yesterday. The Beast even took Baron for a run and Baron spotted a squirrel and started chasing it. He chased it up a tree in the midst of a thorn patch and then couldn't figure out how to get out of it. The Beast has to go in and rescue him...LOL.
He bought a ham and we made it up for dinner. It had to be about an 11 lb. ham and he had to cut up parts of it to freeze as well as putting aside some of it for sandwiches. I'll have to make us some ham and eggs one morning (or evening..who knows?).
He had bought some four cheese mashed potatoes so I made those up to go with the ham. I also made up some broccoli but really wished he had bought some cranberry sauce to go with the ham. But he doesn't like it as much as I do so that would be something he wouldn't feel like searching for. If it doesn't just fall into his hands, it's too much trouble.
I have to go to the store tomorrow and pick up the stuff for making the food I am bringing over to the Princess'. I can make it up ahead of time and freeze it until I defrost and cook it before making the trip. I'll save the marshmallows to add at the Princess' house since it doesn't take that long in the oven before they are ready to serve.
Once I have the shopping for that done, I can relax and get back to THE BOOK. Besides, the weather is going to suck this weekend and will be cold all next week. Perfect weather to be busy indoors.
I'll get this posted now. Love you all and I will put up a Post-it note to myself not to forget to blog tonight. Be good. ***Hugs***
