Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

Like gabulldawg, I thought the rain had left for a few days, but we got more rain last night than we had all month. It's still rainy here. I don't mean to complain because we still need more to get back to or normal water table levels, but I want to get on the pond and do some bass fishing!

Our school had a fundraiser selling Krispy Kreme doughnuts, and I found out this morning that they money was due...this morning! Each family had to sell $100 worth to get a second day off for winter break in February. Well, I love to go to the mountains in February, so I wound up buying most of the doughnuts. And I'm on a diet!! Grrrrr. I did get a pound of coffee, too, though. Not a total loss.

I hope you all have a great day! cheesy

You would see lots of snow if you came to the mountains now. Fall/winter are my favorite times of the year but my wife is getting tired of the snow. We haven't been able to drive up to our home for 2 weeks. We have to park at the bottom & walk up the mountain. I am still enjoying it though.

Good morning, Christmas friends. It is foggy and chilly here in northern California. I have dinner in the crockpot and all's right with the world. I am making Italian herb chicken that is SO EASY that it's almost a sin to say I am making it! You put chicken in the bottom of the crockpot (I use breasts and thighs), mix together 2 cans of garlic-basil diced tomatoes, 1 can roasted garlic tomato paste, chopped onion and mushrooms. Pour that mixture over the chicken, turn crockpot to low and let it cook all day. When I get home tonight, I will cook up a pot of rice over which we will spoon a piece of chicken and the yummy sauce. Yummo! I love coming home to my dinner cooked in the crockpot. A real good cold-night dinner! Hope everyone has a great day! Take care!

Sounds pretty good! Do you have to cook the chciken first, or just put the raw chicken in the crockpot?

After my last post about work being so slow, etc. I just HAD to share this with all of you, my precious Christmas Cousins !

I GOT ANOTHER JOB OFFER FOR MORE MONEY !!!!!!!! Woo-Hoo Right ??

Wow, that was fast! Congrats to you!

You've had to walk up and down the mountain for two weeks?! I don't blame your wife for getting tired of it! We're pretty lucky in that our place in Maggie Valley isn't too hard to access. Just a few hills (that can be challenging in the ice), but for the most part, not too bad.
Good to hear from you!cheesy

Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Jelous of all this snow talk!

I have a suggestion, any chance we could include christmas in July and the next Rudolph day in the daily countdown post? I know its maybe not normall to do it, but its just a suggestion

Sorry for not being part of the big conversations, they tend to happen when I am in bed in my UK time zone, looking forword to staying up through the night for Rudolph days though!!!!!

No snow here either, except in my dreams... But then, no shoveling either - that part doesn't sound very dreamy.

How does everyone celebrate the long awaited first Rudolph Day of the year?! I still have my wee tree up, so it will be lit and listening to Christmas radio...

That is way to hot for me! I never do well in extreme heat.

I Agree!!!!!!

There is a chat on here, this time about christmas planner books and advice how best to plan, the most excellent way to spend the first 25th of the year!
