Favorite Christmas Foods...

 last year at Christmas
 
I am traditional when it comes to Christmas food....
 
We often have ham, mashed potatoes or au gratin potatoes, green bean casserole, and brown and serve rolls (I have an insane love for brown and serve rolls).
 
Another traditional food for my family for Christmas is Prime Rib.  My mom always made it, my brother made it for several years after she passed, and this year I think Doug is going to make prime rib on our smoker.  Yummmm.  It is perhaps the only steak I really like. 
 
I am always up for pumpkin or chocolate pie as my dessert. With lots of Rediwhip !!!
 
Now that I am hungry........ 

I am really enjoying everyone's Christmas posts.  I ordered Love Actually to watch this weekend.  It seems to be a big hit and I am not sure if I ever even heard of it. 

Merry Christmas !

    I like the traditional Christmas foods, too. Love Actually is a nice movie! Oh, my boys discovered that their Grandma used brown and serve rolls and they went on for DAYS about how betrayed they felt, ha ha!

      Haha...my girl's accept that if Dad makes the rolls they will be homemade but if mom does it will be brown and serve. I just love them that much :)

    I'm a traditionalist too! Growing up brown and serve rolls were an absolute must! Just loved how the butter melted into them - perfect comfort food.

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...

Winter Items I Can't Live Without

  If you have read my blog, like ever, you know winter and I have kind of a tolerate, bordering on really dislike, each other kind of relationship.  If I could have snow without ice and in 50 degree weather, life would be fine for those 4-5 months.  I don't really dislike snow.  But I can't handle being cold.  At All!!   Ok, Rant over, for today, maybe, until it is brought up again....   What can I not live without?   A Warm Coat...my favorite coat is my black puffer coat.  It was super cheap from Sam's eleven (yes, eleven) years ago.  It is the warmest coat ever and luckily has never went out of style.  The zipper is being a little iffy this year and I just might cry if I talk about it too long.  This coat washes and drys so well and does not look like it has been a winter staple for eleven years.  I also have a North Face that I love but if it is below 20, the black coat wins hands down, every time. ...
