The weather
64 today then dropping some into lower 60's. 40% chance of 
rain on Christmas Day. 

On the breakfast plate

I almost forgot I wanted to take a pic.  I was just about to turn the omelet and stopped and grabbed my phone.  I love mushrooms in my omelets.  So whenever I have any I make an omelet!

As I look out my window
Sunshine.  I don't have a pretty view.  Just winter/dead grass. 

Something new on the blog
I decided to do a feature I am calling Rustic Food Photos.  This will be the first photo/post I'll share in a few days. 

Right now I am 
Trying to concentrate on this post.  I have a million things to do over the weekend!

As I look around the house
I see Christmas and a few alot of dog hair

On Today's To Do List
In the kitchen  . . . 
Sausage Balls
Ginger Bread 
Chocolate Bundt Cake 

My 'Ta Da' Moment
Made it to the post office. I know that isn't a big deal but sometimes I just can't get the simplest things accomplished. 

And, I think I actually posted everyday this week!

This weeks menu
Monday-Christmas Eve 
Standing Rib Roast, Mashed Potato's, Creamed Spinach, 
Deviled Eggs, hopefully Popovers too!
Tuesday-Christmas Day
Cooking at the boys rehab where we minister hopefully there will be leftovers
Ham, Hash Brown Casserole, Green Beans, Jalapeno Cornbread
Wednesday- Fried Fish, Baked Potatoes, Cole Slaw or Broccoli Salad
Thursday- Bison Chili and Tortilla's
Friday-Pizza and Salad- D.I.L. left us some crust in the freezer!

Last weeks menu (what worked and what didn't)
Got some bargains and couldn't wait to cook them up!
Monday Spaghetti, Salad and Garlic Bread  (I want some
Romaine so bad!  I miss it) ✔✔ I even found Romaine
Tuesday  Cowboy Beans and Corn Bread (I have been craving thin cornbread made in a sheet pan.  Is that weird or what?)  Chicken Fried Steak, French Fries
I called it a Steak/Fry basket.  That sounded better than just meat and potatoes!

Craft basket plans
I am hoping to join the Crochet Along this year and make an afghan. I got a few blocks done last year but wasn't able to buy yarn. But my clients have been sweet and have given me a couple very nice gifts. $$$$ Yea. 
I am also planning on continuing making post cards.  Not waiting till December again!
One of my favorites this year . . .
