Shrimp and grits tonight made with fresh stone ground grits. Used frozen shrimp, which are not the best, but according to my wife this was plenty edible, if a bit spicy. When she came in she laughed and said "Those are serving bowls!" to which I replied, "Well that's good as I am serving the shrimp and grits in them." So apparently there is a difference in serving bowl and eating from bowls. Who knew? Just means a bigger serving is all.

Those look really yummy! Shrimp and grits are my favorite!

Today is my last day of cookie dough making. I am making Red Velvet Cookies. When these cookies are gone, they are gone. I have been on the look out for those devilish cookie gremlins. I am going to make sure they don't bake my frozen cookie dough. :cautious:

I am hoping to get out for a walk. I just hate getting sweaty in cold weather. It feels gross, even with layers. :depressed: It's a delicate balancing act. LOL

I am also going do a quick kettle bell work out later on.

Good morning! Rainy and dreary here. Temps in low 50s so not bad.
Getting my walking done outside with the warm weather. But that will change very quickly.
DH has decided to smoke our Christmas Day dinner. He is replicating our DD’s Thanksgiving. I will let him do the smoking because the weather will be very cold out. Lol
Wrapping presents today. I know! I am running late this year, but I didn’t finish shopping before disney trip.

Good luck catching those gremlins! My husband blames it on Leprechauns. Those pesky guys snag all the best goodies!

It's the last full day of school so I'm cooking and baking like a crazy person, ok crazier than normal:hilarious: Rice and beans, mac and cheese, veggie curry and an unfry stir fry. Cookies are going into full swing in a few. and yet somehow I squeezed in some LS. I'm hoping for a bit of quiet yoga tonight but........did I mention it's the last full day of school:bawling::banghead:

Good morning! The rain finally got out of here. Yesterday was so dark and dreary and depressing. And I think I caught a cold at WDW. Ugh! So I am taking it easy today and pumping myself full of oj and healthy foods. At least I finally got all my shopping and wrapping done. Now, just waiting for the big day. We don't do presents for each other--just trips to WDW which we already did. I don't really get too excited about going to my Mom's for C Eve but she always makes a big deal if we can't come. It is expected. :rolleyes: But, sometimes I really just want to stay home, if I don't get to go to our DD's. She has to work this year, so we will go in Jan for our Christmas there. Oh well-maybe it won't be too stressful at Mom's.

Sympathy like. Lemon juice, fresh crushed garlic and a bit of honey may help. GWS xoxo

Merry Christmas. No party starting yet I covered classes and am doing clean out the fridge night for dinner. Tomorrow is a baking day starting with waffles(making enough for then and a few meals worth to freeze) then it's on to an all day cookie baking marathon.

Hello--

I took yesterday off, the incoming weather is killing my sinuses. But I did manage a cardio w/o today. I am pretty much where I need to be for Christmas prep. It was a little less labor-intensive than last year, because this year it is just the three of us. I am looking forward to a low key day. Last year, my mom and my grandmother were here and my son ended up in the ER and my husband had some sort of stomach thing. I am hoping for a boring Christmas. :hilarious:

Amen!! I'd really rather just skip over Christmas and New Years this year and just start right in on 2018. I kind of almost wish I could get appendicitis or something non-life- threatening that would give me an excuse to miss everything from tonight through Christmas at least. Maybe something less painful than appendicitis though...

Right now child birth sounds good. See @epcotisbest I'm not always 100% cheery:D

Merry Christmas everyone. It is going to be a busy few days coming up here. Lots of visiting, but thankfully, some of the events (Christmas plays, multiple family get togethers, etc..) are already over. It gets so hectic sometimes. Hope everyone has a special holiday time and Happy New Year too!
