What is your recipe for the spiked apple cider? I would love to try it!

I just took my favorite apple cider (spiced with cinamon - yum!) and heated a mug of it in the microwave. Then I poured a couple of shots of Applejack in it. As far as ratios go... And I'm just guessing here...

I'd say it's 1 oz of Applejack to 1.5 cups of hot cider.

Good morning everyone! It's so good to get back from a nice weekend and see all of the posting that's been going on. I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was super fun, but also super tiring.

In less than 2 weeks, it's time for trick-or-treat. Then we have a couple of short weeks until the season. I can't believe it's so close!!!

I'm going to relax today and recoup from this past weekend. I hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!!!!

Maureen - Hope your feeling better soon!

Brad - Very nice pics!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! I (well Hubby and I) got a lot of cleaning done! I also wrote out ALL of my Christmas cards! I tried the recipe for chewy reese choc cookies. They were incredible! I had to give the leftover cookies to my parents and for my Hubby to take into work or else I wont be losing this baby weight before Thanksgiving cheesy! On my lunch break today I bought my Hubby 2 sweaters and thick wool socks (he plows snow) for Christmas..and also my Dad a pair of slippers. I love buying Christmas gifts and feeling like Im getting something accomplished! Have a great Monday!

First post of the morning! Is that a good thing or bad thing?

Good morning, everyone.

-7C with windchill here right now. That's cold! I'm off to Montreal in a matter of minute and thought I would stop in quickly. A teammate is driving, which means I can sleep a little in the car. Have a great Friday and a fantastic weekend! Thanks to everyone who wished me good luck as well.

Take care!

How did it go, brent?

Good Evening everyone!

I am on late today. I did however find my kitchen back! I got all the boxes unpacked and everything arranged, at last. Going to scrub the floor before I go to bed and it is all done.
Glad to hear everyone had a good weekend. cheesy

Bradmac...GREAT PICS!! THANKS!!!

Mumof2....those Patriots wore it out!!!

Made....this is where I would have liked to put something about Jr.'s win....but that isn't happening!

Good evening to you all!! Hope this finds you doing well. Things are good here...actually warm and sunny today. However, this won't last for long. Going to cool back off and rain later in the wek.

Think me and the wife are going to do some shopping this weekend and, at least, get some Christmas cards! Planning on looking around and doing some shopping later this week (online) and doing some this weekend. Anybody got any ideas for a dirty Santa party with a limit of 30?

Hope everyone has a great night and an even better day tomorrow!

Glad to hear that you are getting everything unpacked. I moved into my current apartment three years ago and I am still trying to get things put just the way I like them.
