HA! HA! I'm laughing at you guys! Temps in the 70's!!! Boy are you missing out! It's 5 degrees here and has been snowing for a week solid, accumulated about 25 inches of fresh white fluff. Because of the lake effect snow, areas around us have gotten a lot more. We must love it, that's why we stay, never a dull moment. Although, I've entertained thoughts of doing it more Lynn's way in a couple of years. A few years ago we received over 260 inches for the winter.
Sandy, The Muppet Christmas Carol has been a family favorite for years. A yearly must see for us, although my daughter-in-law cannot understand our enthusiasm. This Christmas Eve Clementine asked her mom and I to put our pajamas on and watch a movie. We all snuggled down to The Polar Express. I spent most of the movie watching her expressions of awe, as she doesn't watch very much TV, it was most precious. And since we were having a nontraditional meal all I had to make was a spinach bread bowl, cheese ball and plate a few other snacks!... my family still doesn't like to do dishes though.
Time to get the New Year's food going. Dan requested appetizers as he has difficulty pacing himself with those and then full for the main meal. So this year it's grape jelly wieners, BBQ meatballs, Nachos, fruit and vegies. Before any eating is done though Dan and Dave have to assemble the kitchen center we gave Clementine for her birthday yesterday... I'd forgotten how heavy it was!
Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! Here's to leaving 2017 far behind.
Love to all,
Kim
