What a gorgeous day it was...fresh clean snow...brilliant sunshine...ahhhh fresh air...no wind...
Love making the first footprints in the snow...
Did you ever see such a clear blue sky?...
See you next time, cottage!
And we saw these guys enjoying the sunshine on our drive home...♥️
Hope you are all having a great day...
Todays weather is nothing but BLAH...cloudy...breezy...and warming up!
Looks like all the snow may be gone in a few days...
Calling for rain and temps near 8*c...geesh! Up and down!
My tree is all decorated...love it!
We were supposed to meet some friends for dinner...
They were bringing their 2 grandsons...and we were going to bring Miss V...
Unfortunately my daughter has strep throat, and Miss V a slight fever...:o(
My boyfriend has hardly any voice...and a very sore throat...:o(
My friends grandson has pink eye...soooooo...needless to say...
The evening out is postponed...:o(
Hoping my daughter and Miss V and my boyfriend are much better tomorrow...
Think we'll have some of that crockpot Ham and Pea Soup...
With a Turkey,tomato,bacon, mayo and lettuce sandwich...
Sounds pretty darn good to me...considering!
How are you spending your Saturday night...getting so close to Christmas!!!
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

Hello everyone!
Hope you are all well...happy...and busy with lots of activities!
I pampered myself with a brand spanking new Kalanchoe, while on my break...
Besides the African Violet...this rates right up there as one of my favorite plants...whether outdoors in the summer...*sigh*
Or indoors with their happy wee faces...
I went with a creamy white one...
Isn't she pretty?
I also did some decorating...I am going with "less is more" this year...
I have already donated 2 boxes to the thrift store...
I am sure someone will make good use of my donations...♥️
Red was not impressed, when Kermit tried to entertain him, by dressing up in his wee Santa Suit!!!
That Red is a tough audience!!
Hahaha!
Tree is up...
No lights yet...
This evening will see that done...
I had purchased an artificial tree...but took it back...just not my cup of tea!
Will look for one on sale after Christmas...
Maybe...tee hee hee..
This was the scene at 8am...
And...
Guess what???
It hasn't stopped yet...
And it is now nearly 5pm...
Geesh...
We will be snowed in...
For sure!
Will get a few more pics tomorrow...
Hopefully a drive to the cottage...
Will have to see...
Hope you are all having a great day...
Is it snowing where you are???
Are you all ready for the big day???
I must get my gifts arranged, and see what I need...
"less is more" in that category as well...I have done a lot of crochet for gifts...
I am happy about that...for sure!!
I have a ham bone on the slow cooker, which will become split pea soup...
Will get that done tomorrow...
Tonight will be veggie spaghetti...
Crusty bread and Ceasar Salad...nice and cosy food...perhaps a fire later♥️
Gee...I forgot how long it takes to put a post together...I'm pooped!
Hopefully not too many pictures...and not too wordy...
Will visit every one....miss me??? hahaha!
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

Last week...
I received a small package...
From a lovely gal Deb...
Over at "Just Cats" in my sidebar...
My very own...
Keep inside!
RED!
He drove into town in his very own wee Pine Cone car!
Isn't he just the cutest thing!
Thanks so much Deb...so thoughtful of you...
You all should visit Deb...I know some of you are already fans of her hilarious tongue-in-cheek postings...always have a smile on my fat face after visiting her blog :o)
You all may remember him this past summer...
choosing just the RIGHT Pinecone....
...to build his car out of!
Here is where he will park...until the tree goes up...admiring the lovely card Deb sent me...
And....here he was just yesterday...
Still feasting on my Halloween Pumpkins....GEESH!
And...still...raiding my feeders...
Whenever I try to put something out for my feathered friends....
Hope you are all having a great day...
Finally made it to Fitness today...very rusty!!
And had a nice cup of coffee...and some chit chat!
Home.....
And actually did a wee bit of decorating...just a bit!
Slowly......but surely....
Less is more....okay dokey!!
Dinner will be baked crispy crunchy pork chops...
Roasted taters,red peppers, and onions...
Fresh green beans...and a Greek Salad to start...
I am hungry!!
Think I'll make the salad early!!
Whats going on in your kitchen tonight???
How is the decorating coming?
What is happening weather-wise???
the nothing here again today....and darn windy and cold......brrrrr!
Oooops...just looked out the window...it is snowing!!
Enjoy your evening...
Cheers! :o)

After reviewing the photos from our Friday visit to the cottage...
I thought...
Geesh...
These are pretty darn depressing...
Should I even bother posting them??
I figure...
You gotta take the bad with the good...
We were just so darn thrilled that there was no damage from those hideous 100 km winds that week...
Thank goodness!
Hope you all had a great weekend...and you Thanksgiving people....GET BACK TO WORK!!!
Hahahaha!
Gonna get a break from the kitchen tonight...
The boyfriend and I are heading to Milestones for a delicious burger...
My very favorite eating out meal...
Darn...
I love burgers♥️
Thanks so much for all your lovely comments about Miss V...
It is deeply appreciated...Hope to have her for an afternoon this week...
My son got all the front lights up...and it looks very festive...indeed!
How are you doing with your decorating???
Got your tree yet???
Guess I'll get mine later in the week...
That is when the REAL festivities begin...
Enjoy the rest of your day...
Cheers! :o)
