Thank you Mac. We did have a wonderful time enjoying each other’s company. It’s always nice when family can get together.
So glad to hear your son and his wife were able to visit you to celebrate Christmas.
What a beautiful surprise from your son for your Christmas present. Very pretty.
If gravy has a flour taste to it the roux was not cooked long enough. There is a fine window of time when the roux is just right before you add the milk. Same thing on the thickness. If it’s to thick not enough milk was added and it was cooked to long.
I have seen that type of gravy too it’s not pleasant and I will give it a pass.
A good well made sausage gravy is yummy.
Sorry to hear your mom is having to be in quarantine again. I pray things will get back to normal at some point, but I think the new normal will continue sadly over time at the cost to many.
We did. It was so nice having all the family together.
I’am so glad you all were able to go to Scotland and visit your family and friends. I know you had been looking forward to seeing everyone. This past couple years have been tough.
It is always so nice to see all that hard work pay off. Being able to see a launch on TV or in person is special for sure. I’am hoping I will be able to see some launches this year in person. Will just have to see how things go.
So nice to hear you were able to celebrate with your family.
I can tell grammie is over the moon at having your granddaughter with you and rightfully so. They are precious.
Wowwwwwwww that is cold.
Having a little white for Christmas is nice.
Your charcuterie board is beautiful and looks tasty.
What a nice gift. I have never seen a glowing bottle of gin before.
Charade i’am Glad to hear your mom is doing better.
Sounds like you have done everything you can to sort out the situation with your aunt.
It is awful when family members steal from their family. Your aunt took advantage of the trust that was given to her and helped herself to your moms money. So sad and inexcusable behavior.
Have a safe trip back home Charade.
Lynne hope your tea is strong hot and tasty this morning.
Soniam enjoy your New Years Eve.
Been catching up on a few things for past few days. Another dental appointment and granddaughter came over to help put a few Christmas things away.
Will have son and family over for dinner Sunday and they are going to help me take trees down and put away the rest of the Christmas decorations. We do this every year. It’s a nice chance for us to spend time together before hubby and I leave for home in Florida. I make a nice big roast with all the trimmings and we have a nice visit and house gets put back to pre-Christmas form.
I watched little J Tuesday. We had a nice visit.
I had lunch with my younger sister yesterday. It is always nice to get to spend time with her.
It’s another cloud covered rainy day here. Looking forward to some sun and heat in the sunshine State.
Will be a quiet New Years Eve here. We haven’t been out for New Year’s Eve in years. We will just chill and have some snacks and watch some movies.
We watched first two Indiana Jones movies yesterday evening. We will watch the third one this evening. They are oldies but goodies. Harrison Ford was a handsome fellow. Hard to believe the first Indiana Jones was made in 1981. Forty year ago.
Have a wonderful New Years Eve everyone.
