Holiday fun times
Nov. 23rd, 2018 07:21 pmI have had a lovely holiday so far. Thanksgiving dinner was a bit rough & stressful for me. We didn't make all the sides that were originally on the menu. Original menu included turkey roulade, potatoes, carrots, cornbread dressing, cranberry sauce & ham. We ended up eating cornbread dressing, turkey roulade, ham & cranberry sauce. I made simple cranberry sauce , which turned out great. We used turkey legs for the roulade & deboned the meat, including taking out all the little bones. Next time, we are defiantly using breasts. For desert we got an apple cobbler, which is currently baking in the oven. We also got Mexican chocolate ice cream which is delicious. It has a swirl of cinamon in chocolatey goodness. :) <3
For the retail holiday black friday, after lunch of leftover sandwiches, we went to the movies. We saw Wreck it Ralph 2, which was full of internet references & inside jokes. Cute kid movie & all the kids in the theater were very well behaved! Afterwards we went to the thrift store, which was having a 50% off sale. I got a handknit sweater that fits great, a comercial argeyl sweater & a loungy long sleeve t shirt. J got a new pair of pants. He also got a second, small, computer monitor for $10! He has it all hooked up & is super excited about it. I also got a new purse, which I need to switch over to this weekend.
How was your holiday, if you celebrated Thanksgiving & Black Friday?
