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.

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...

What's going on around here....

  I am joining up with The Simple Woman's Blog to bring you my weekly day book.  Link up and share yours and read the other links....          For today...February 2nd (Groundhog's Day) 6 more weeks of Winter was the prediction.   Outside my window....Snow.  We got enough to cover everything, but not the storm that was predicted.  I can handle this.  I will admit, snow is beautiful the first day before it gets slushy and dirty.       I am thinking...how nice to have the day off.  Sometimes using a vacation day to hang out around the house is worth it.   I am thankful and in gratitude for... an older daughter who is responsible and can run the house and the family well when left in charge for a few days.   I am wearing...my pajama pants and an Oklahoma Sooners hoodie, this may be what I stay in all day long :)   I am wondering....if raising teenagers will tur...
