It was a lovely Thanksgiving Day here, followed by a cold Black Friday and first snow flurries of the season. We were blessed with an employer provided turkey again this year, which my Mother graciously cooked up along with the usual potatoes, stuffing, gravy... I also made up a batch of my "family famous" Deviled Eggs.We ate leftovers for a good 3 days! I'm now looking forward to Christmas ham...
I've only just begun shopping, but, as usual, we will not be going overboard. The aim is to become as completely debt free as possible... It's all fun and games until that credit card bill arrives in January! We set a budget for each person and stay within that limit. There are so many things I'd love to buy for others, but in my opinion, the best part of Christmas is spending it with my large extended family and friends. Everyone brings a dish to pass and lots of laughs. Good times.
I had intended to get the tree up this past Saturday, but got busy with other things. I need to get on that!
I may have some significant excellent news to share in the next few weeks if all goes accordingly! We've been saying our prayers, crossing our fingers and hoping for the best.
