It was hovering right at about 60F (15.5C) all day, but pouring down rain & very windy. Weather alerts show much more rain & wind. Yuck. Tomorrow, temps drop a bunch.

We have storm Bella hitting us on Saturday night with yet more rain and winds of over 60mph forecasted.
Thank goodness we've had a break today and tomorrow.

Yum! I had cheesecake for breakfast and dinner today...unfortunately, I think I was supposed to save it for the family that's coming over to cook tomorrow. Crap! I thought I was successful in ignoring Christmas all together, then at the almost last minute they called to say they will bring 2 grandkids and one boyfriend, and cook Christmas dinner. They will also bring their 5 count'em five freakin dogs. They will bring afghans for them to wrap in, one doxie has paralyzed rear legs and is in a wheel thing. I have made a plan to take photos of how those dogs are treated. My DIL coo's at one ohhh baby. I think I'll have a headache

Come on now Maggie.., Surely if you can coo at your totally awesome IROC, then Weenies on Wheels Is allowed some too??? ???

I missed out on my fried cheesecake.. I was too full and I didn’t think it would make good take-home:-(. I’m second guessing that decision now!!

Well only 25 mins for us and Xmas 2020 will be here.
I managed to get my last pressie for my brother in law sorted out - a falconry experience where he will get to fly a bird of prey. At least it's outdoors so less likely to be cancelled should covid persist.
I'm going to my sisters for lunch tomorrow, and it will be quiet but very welcome
So I wish you all a happy Christmas Day and hope it is everything you want it to be.
Nos Da

I've got 5anda half hours to go. That's okay with me. The longer it takes the better. I get tired of time flying away like it does.

Very nice.... no fancy scenes here. Wifey is putting the finishing touches on something new, a twist to the evening if I say. It’s about to go in the oven now where it will rise & who knows!

ps - rolled pastry, stuffed with spinach & cream cheese, parmesan, mozzarella, & cheddar!

ok, and here it is out of the oven, smothered in butter, garlic & Italian seasoning.

I see that they have a lightly fried cheesecake on the menu sprinkled with cinnamon and drizzled with caramel... WHAT??? And with ice cream .... BE STILL MY HEART!!

I hope you GOT IT!!!?????

 

[Cathie G]

Yes peace ?. I spent today with some peace and quiet. Did laundry and will do another load tomorrow. It's snowing here. So it'll probably be a white Christmas ? I know this sounds like a grinch but I'm so glad!!! I get to have a couple of quiet days. No visitors cause they have to do the kids and grandkids thing with presents and all. I get to watch the woodpeckers with a backdrop of a White Christmas. Maybe a good picture.?

I tried to post a picture earlier of my laundry but it didn't so here it is again.

That would be a fun recipe to try.

 

[Cathie G]

Oh please let me see your idea!

Well it's because of the European Starlings. I don't mind helping them but for heaven's sake! They're dang pigs! Other birds need a helping hand too. Where is a hawk when you need them??

 

[Chefdenoel10]

thanks Rose!!!!!
He needs a good butt kicking once in awhile! Poor kangaroo foot must hurt by now??? ?
