What I'm Reading This Week #15
We made it to the weekend! Can I get a hell yeah, Stone Cold Steve Austin style? source We're fast approaching mid month and for those who celebrate Easter, make sure you've got your game plan together and are shopping the sales! We lucked out with some Honeybaked Ham rewards somehow and I placed my order months ago and we'll have that for $9. I always pick up stuff on sale as the year goes on so I don't need a bunch of ingredients at once. We saw Stowe got another dump of snow just as we were lamenting it fading away two days earlier. I know. Don't nobody here wanna see dat but it still warms the cockles of our otherwise charcoal hearts. It makes me want to watch our little slideshow from Christmas again. We tried our little outdoor table and I'll be damned if that project also didn't crap the bed in fantastical fashion. It's almost like I can hear the deities giggle and go "watch this." It wasn't unfixable but eno...
It has been a very good week with great meals, but that is the norm thanks to you!
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks hon! :-)
DeleteYou know, I'm not sure I could tell you what I ate for dinner this week. I do know it didn't look as pretty as your meals. LOL
ReplyDeleteNo Christmas-y goings on here this weekend, but I'm having a HUGE leaf-raking party starting this afternoon, to which I'd like to invite you and the Mr. I'll even let you choose Rake or Bag! :)
Enjoy your weekend!
I have to wrack my brain sometimes...thank God for Fitday! I'll help rake as long as I can jump in the pile a few times. :)
DeleteSaturday is a "Dickens Festival". There are a bunch of Dickens themed events around town. Some of them could be interesting so we may go to a couple. Then Saturday night is the parade of lights. I could totally do without this, but the little guy loves parades so we may go to that.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, not much planned.
Aww see, that sounds like fun to me! Well not the parade because people can be annoying. HA!
DeleteYUm!! I might move next doors and come to your home for dinner:d
ReplyDeleteCome on over. :)
DeleteShopping with friends! We'll hit all the Christmas stores and have lunch out. No boys allowed. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like fun! Have fun girls!
DeleteThis post made me hungry (ok, I was already hungry and it just aggrivated my pre-existing condition).
ReplyDeleteI need to get some gifts made for Christmas. That means a trip to the craft store for batting to make a stocking for my sister (I hope).
Since Advent begins this weekend, we'll start by picking out our Christmas tree. There is a tree farm about 30 minutes away where we've picked out a tree for the last few years. We romp around in the cold until our son picks out the perfect tree. The farm cuts it for us and our son will carry it to the car (big strong teenager). Our little tradition! That will get our season going!
ReplyDeleteI think putting up my tree, and wrapping presents while listening to Christmas music are my two favourite things. :D
ReplyDeleteI have to finish my Christmas shopping, wrap everything and then get it ready to ship. Not my favorite thing but maybe I'll buy myself something :) Hopefully I'll get a tree too. My first 'real sized' tree. Previously I've just had little ones.
ReplyDeleteOther than that not too much. Put a pork roast in the crock pot today before I left for work. I'm trying something new it's got mustard, honey, beer, whole garlic cloves, and soy sauce. We'll see!
Have a good one!
I am both stunned and embarrassed because I've never seen "It's a Wonderful Life". (I KNOW.)
ReplyDeleteIt's on ABC or CBS or one of those Saturday night at 8:00, so I have the DVR set up to record it. I think they're showing it in its entirety since the network blocked off three hours for it. DVR = fast forwarding through commercials to get to the good stuff.
I've seen the first few minutes and the infamous "Auld Lang Syne" scene at the end but never the entire movie. I feel so lame. ;) I'll probably put up Christmas decorations while I watch it.
Ooh, roasted red pepper sloppy joes--that sounds SO good! I'm going to have to figure out a way to vegetarianize that. :)
