Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Hey everyone! It's Christmas week.
Going to see my folks tomorrow evening! I've got to put a few finishing touches on a few things and I'm done. I'm making crab cakes, blue cheese salad and steamed green beans for my Christmas dinner! I'm sick of ham and dressing. I don't have any dessert in mind....maybe some pineapple pudding (use pine instead of banana). I'm about caked out....tired of cake and candy.
Ya'll have a nice Christmas & Happy New Year!
You going somewhere good Seeven? I don't blame you!Comment

Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Well now it was really cold here yesterday, down to 71 and I finally put a pair of socks on for the first time in Jamaica. I don't know why but when it goes below 77 here it feels cold to me. Of course today it is nice. Got up at 4am to do the wash. Now I realize I don't have to get up so early anymore with the water pressure pump on the system. It shaved off a whole hour on the 2 washer loads, so now I can get up at 5. We need to make sure the clothes are on the line by 7, so we can get them off the line before any afternoon showers.
Ted's nephews are coming Monday for a few days to visit. I asked their father Brenton to bring them down when he returns to work on our carport. We are also building a 1 bedroom unit above the carport with bath, teeny kitchen and small veranda, but great view again of the sea. Will rent it out also when finished.
My grandson and his girlfriend came to visit me for 10 days and we had such a great time. They left yesterday.
Again a Blessed Christmas to all. Peace n nuf luv, JMComment

Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Hello All ... hope you are all having a good day ...
**sigh** some sad news from the Yard this morning ...
our Calallo Man was about to turn into our lane - and sadly he was hit and killed by an oncoming speeding car.
one of the simple little things that make our home such a special place - my first morning waking, anticipating hearing him call out his arrival - "CALLALOOOO" for the women to come out and buy from him ....
no more -
bless his heart ~

Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Marnin all!
Holy Moly Laurel...weather channel says you could get up to 20 inches of snow! Better go for your groceries early this morning! We are supposed to get nuff rain late today and all day tomorrow. I only have to go do my shelter volunteer work tomorrow so I'm ok.
((((Calaloo Man & Family)))) such a tragedy trying to support himself. Seems like a lot of bad accidents have happened in Jam this week. Mini bus with 8 people aboard plunged over a bridge in Portie....still can't find one youth. The the plane crash in Kingston but at least no one died in that one. Prayers for our friends.Comment

Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Good morning holics and happy ho ho ho and alla that! I will be spending Christmas hunkered down next to my wood stove and playing with my new snowblower! All of Minnesota and Wisconsin is under a severe snowstorm warning but us up here by the lake are in a <span style="font-style: italic">Blizzard</span> warning!
whooo hooo, we've only had one blizzard since 1991, they are WILD!!!! If it's gonna come it might as well pack a full punch I say.
I did a grocery shopping frenzy yesterday morning as they were warning there would be no travel advised any time today. I'm going to do my cooking this morning in case the power goes out and I'm sure happy I have a wood stove and lots of wood!
I'm sure these little finches have a belly full wherever they are hunkered down!
Have a good christmas and stay safe and dry wherever you are!Comment

Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Seeven, I'm in the same boat! I'm gonna bolt at 2 pm today. You on the same wavelengh as me...having crab cakes tomorrow...bought my fresh crabmeat last night. I can just taste them.
Gonna head over to my folks this evening for their Christmas Eve dinner. First, I'm gonna shoot by Publix and grab some of those awesome tangerines. Man o man are the sweet and nice. Gonna buy a whole box to give to mom as she loves them so.
You snowbirds please stay safe and warm in this blizzard. I pray that you all don't loose your current.
Merry Christmas to all my boardland friends....Love & Hugs.

Re: ho ho ho run your mouf
Marnin cubicle prisoners & QK! Well, if it is anything like this in the south I hope Laurel didn't try to go to the store! There is NO WAY...in hell, I would venture out in this blizzard. I've snowblowed twice already this morning it's coming down at least 2 inches an hour and it's not supposed to stop till Saturday!
I have a fire in the wood stove warming up the shop. The dogs all got pigs ears for christmas and a new bed and some new toys. We'll head out there and play for the duration and if the power goes out we'll stay nice and toasty! I'm making my house into an igloo with the snowblower so if the heat ends up going with the power, at least the pipes shouldn't freeze! My mamma didn't raise no fool, lol..
OK, I better start my holiday cooking in case I lose my electric stove. I can always heat stuff up on the wood stove if I have it cooked, or I could haul it all out there and cook it if I had to but that would be so much extra work!
pics soon come...Comment
