I'm linking up with
Stacy.
It was so hard to go back to work after having a whole week off for Thanksgiving. We celebrated at my mom's house. My sister is usually on a cruise during Thanksgiving, but now that she is retired, they didn't have to go based on the school calendar, so they were able to put it off two days. It was nice having her and her husband there.
Thanksgiving is my favorite meal of the year: Turkey, gravy, dressing, rolls, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and of course, dessert! My favorite dessert is anything with chocolate. My daughter and her boyfriend make mint chocolate brownies. We also had pumpkin cheesecake, apple pie, and pecan pie. I tried some of the cheesecake. Delicious!

Did anyone do some Black Friday shopping? I did... from my home. Going out in this mess? No, thanks! Most of the Black Friday sales I was interested in were also online, so I got a little shopping done. I still have quite a bit to do. Why is it always so hard to buy for the guys? Husband, son, nephew, brother-in-law, sons-in-law... they have everything they need, and they don't easily share what they want. It's a little frustrating, so if you have any ideas for awesome guy gifts, please leave me a comment! I could use your help.
And now...

And this! Hahaha!
Have a great week!
Thanksgiving is my favorite meal, too - even though I cook for hours, the end result is always fabulous. Good thing I love to cook! ;)
ReplyDeleteI've only gone Black Friday shopping twice in my life - and never ever again. Too many crazy people! Plus, like you, anything I was interested in was easily gotten from home. ;) I got a few things at a great price for gifts - but like you, I'm stumped on what to get my hubby and brother...they are so hard to buy for, since they have everything they need (and my hubby ALWAYS buys himself the stuff I have ideas to get him - and usually within a week or two before Christmas...he just did it again this week, so I'm back to square one again! Sheesh!!) :)
Your funnies are funny! :) Hope you have a fabulous week!
Retired housecleaners aren't in any hurry to get back to it, either. In fact, i can't wait until i retire and hope i can hire someone to clean for me!
ReplyDeleteMen almost always appreciate something to eat or drink, and the good thing about that is it's consumable so it's not something you will have to find room to keep in the house and then dust for years to come.
Thanks for the funnies!
