Yawn yawn, wakey wakey autumn 2017

Merry Christmas all. only 10AM here. just made ricotta cheese pancakes for breakfast with some uncured bacon. and hot coffee . no presents opened yet. we are just hanging. quiet day. Later will try my hand at putting together a lobster bisque (have the shells all simmered the other day, and liquid reduced) just have to herb combo etc. then later an easy dinner for us. crab meat quiche a veggie, and wine. some chocolate truffles for dessert. Tuesday back to work and its left overs for a week. I hate wasting food.
Noted a few snow flakes.

 

@shiney, Sounds like your having a nice time mate.
I've had a nice relaxing day, hubby did dinner and this evening been reading abit besides watching the box.
I've always liked my whisky but my system hates it...ahhhhhhh

 

Morning all and have a great boxing day

 

Morning early people

Suns out at last Batteries in much need of a recharge

Have a good box everyone

 

@Zigs, Yes we have the sun mate but it's freezing...enjoy your day

 

Happy Tuesday. 4 days to work this week, if you call what I do anymore. Or trying to look busy, don't tell my boss. have a quick meeting at 1PM today. Have to pick up my pork roast for New Years day, today or tomorrow. I get senior discounts at this food store on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. And later stopping by the Pet store for cat food, and senior discount there also, on the last Tuesday of the month.
Happy Boxing day to you all. We have leftovers to eat here.

 

Hello!

Happy Christmas for yesterday! I tried to find a spare minute to wish you all a happy Christmas yesterday but I was on the go all day, we had 16 here! Roast turkey & beef for lunch (brilliantly cooked by Kev) & then cold table. My nieces & nephew kept me busy! I was head of house, cheif dishwasher loader & spent the rest of the time talking! (I know you will find that hard to believe!) anyway a good day was had by all, it really was good fun...today I feel tired! .

My kitchen is almost finished, I just have the floor to choose now
. I'm delighted with it, it works really well & looks so posh!

My poor garden has been a bit neglected whilst sorting out the kitchen, I feel like I have a lot to do out there, but that's nothing I can't handle .

I hope you are all keeping well & have managed to stay away from all the darn colds which seem to be flying around?

 

@Beckie76

to you & your family, it sounds like you've had a smashing time it's always the up that takes longer but as long as your enjoying yourselves, then make the garden a start for the new year.

Gail

 

I said to Kev this morning if we're going to make entertaining for 16 a habit we need another dishwasher! .

I hope you had a great time @Gail_68? Xx

 

@Beckie76, Well i'd say so mate plus a mansion ...Ours was quiet and I never cook the food ...years ago I offered to cook a meal and I can cook but he said I prefer cooking myself, well that did it for me I didn't need telling twice
