Stockings

Okay, I decided that decoration was first on my list. So I pulled out the old decorations from last year and I realized that my stockings were missing!  Decoration for Christmas require stockings!  So, it took me two days to find just the right ones! Now the house is beautiful and I can get back to the other stuff.

Here it comes…

So Christmas is coming up now and I just can’t wait to get in the hustle of the holiday!  I have three weeks to complete a long list of things.  Should be fun, wish me luck!

Thanksgiving Dinner

Here it is again… Thanksgiving.  I love all of the cooking and preparation and traveling  when it comes to Thanksgiving.  Every Thanksgiving that comes around I  travel home to be with friends and family.  There’s always traffic, family, and a bunch of food.  I’m not sure just yet what I am going to bring but I’m sure it will be tasty.  I’m thankful for my family wanting me around for turkey day!  So I guess it’s time to start cooking and then hit the road again!

Weather…

Well it’s starting to get cold.  I hate winter!  There is no life outside; everything is dead and freezing! I am a person of the sun!  I think I am going to move to the beach!

Costumes!

Well one of my favorite holidays is coming up.  I dress up every year. I think that you are never to old to play dress up, it’s fun!  So I was going through some websites to find some reasonable prices on some Elvis costumes for women.  There are not that many costumes like that for a decent price. But, to my surprise I found a website that had just that! halloweencostumes4u.com

Waffle Cone!

Today is the day that the ice cream waffle cone was invented in 1903!  It was first introduced at a county fair celebrating the Louisiana Purchase in St. Louis. There is nothing I love more than ice cream except ice cream in a waffle cone! So the next time that September 22nd rolls around and you have nothing to do, just think about having ice cream in a waffle cone!  At least you will have a reason to eat ice cream!

National Chicken Month?

So here I was sitting thinking about what I was going to write for this month.  I mean there is not much to cheer about in September.  So I decided to do a little research on this wonderful month and to my surprise I learned a few things! September is National Chicken Month!  How in the world do you make a month all about chicken?  Someone did, and now it is celebrated nationally!  Look out turkey, chicken is moving in!

New Robert Plant Album

Years ago, I met Robert Plant through my father.  Daddy used to be a sales rep for a guitar company and he often brought musicians home with him for dinner with the family.  My mom is an awesome cook and fabulous hostess. We would have a gourmet dinner and then sit around the living room and play music, sing and dance for hours.  I had a wonderfully fortunate childhood.

Robert’s new album is coming out in a couple of weeks. I can’t wait to buy it. I love the first single they just released, called “Angel Dance.”
