Yum-o Turkey

 

yum  ooohhhhh   aaahhhhh   yeah  whoo hoo

see what else could I say to describe my feelings about the turkey dinner?

oohh lala 

Ok I willl speak english…I feel sorry for you who do not understand and my hope is that when done reading this pathetic post you will also join me and begin a tradition with someone and COOK A BIG FAT TURKEY.

make some filling too.

Do not stuff the bird. It takes to long and ends up being messy and mushy,,,,ugh   yuk   eeeoooo   ( sorry I just can’t help with the language, I am taking some online classes for it and need to practice daily)

This year I am using The Pioneer Woman  corn bread stuffing recipe. I love this women’s food!  aaaahhhh    mmmmmm    scrum-e-o

To make it a bit interesting I am cooking bar-b-qued green beans for the veggie. I might add corn to the menu as well.   DE-E-E-LISH

oh and yes to the cranberry salad…can I get an AMEN?

Mashed potatoes whipped to a frenzy with sour cream,cream cheese and lotsa butter.  lip smakin gooooood

and then the warm pumpkin pie topped with vanilla ice cream!  Lord I do not know if there is a word or even an expresion to describe that kind of goodness.

So

while this mouth waters lets get this cozy little home cleaned up and some Christmas lights hung cause Thursday will be upon us in a blink of an eye.

Somebody say…Hallelujah

ps. don’t forget to save the turkey bone for the dog, He deserves some love too.

I Must Blog

 

I MUST BLOG.

It cannot wait another day. Today is the day.

The longer I wait,the bigger the list of things to talk about which means more time to write it all.

After all my motherly duties there is little time leftover in a day. I CANNOT AFFORD TO LET THE LIST GET BIG.

I MUST BLOG.

It releases my stress. I don’t know why? It just does. I do not even look at myself as being any kind of a writer. It is a mystery to me. I have tried to solve it but gave up.

I don’t know about you but I am ready for the holidays. I have started with my Christmas music and the cravings are kicking in for all the yummy chocolates and pumpkin pie. I think I will hang some lights this week. 

Every year I determine to do fun traditional things with the kids during their school break. Somehow the days fly past and I feel we are left with memories of only the Christmas tree and bellyaches from too many cookies.

.This year I am going to change my focus.

I only want to wake up each morning with a smile on my face. That’s it…just a smile. and I want to keep the smile all day long. But I don’t want it to just be a smile I want it to be soooo much more. I want for it to start deep from within.

Yesterday I had a birthday. I do not mind getting old. It is adventurous.

I would still rather not publicize my age. You may ask me in person or in a text ( hehe I do not text) write me a letter to find out or heck just come see me. I LOVE VISITORS.

The man of the house took the kids out shopping for me. The house was wonderfully quite when they left. It was late till they returned and let me say they were more excited about wrapping those presents then getting gifts themselves.   IT MADE ME SMILE.

and how could I forget the most important person of the house right now…this look here tells me there is a fair amount of intelligence stashed inside just waiting to jump out us.

IMG_2890     I think someone other then me might be behind it.
