Wow what a whirlwind

I can't believe how my vacation has flown by. I always take the week after Thanksgiving off. After cooking two thanksgivings, I headed to Vegas with my pal Debbie to do Xmas shopping. We had a great time. Did a lot of shopping and saw Phantom, which was FABULOUS and also had the best Pearfect Pear martini ever! Then it was back home to head to LA for a couple of appointments and Richard and I had Dinner at Lawry's. Dinner was great and then my day was filled yesterday with a mani/pedi and couple of doctors appointments. I also did several xmas cards for people in between. So as I sat down today I was amazed that I have not blogged for a week! Ugh. So now you can see why!

Today I am off for a sewing lesson with Suzanne and a massage. Tonight is our xmas party and my goal is to make a Pear martini worthy of Vegas.

OH SO THANKFUL

Well Thanksgiving has come and gone, but today is Thanksgiving part 2. Our family always celebrates twice. Once on thursday and again on Saturday. Thus I am up making cornbread for stuffing and preparing breakfast for my family from out of town.

(pictures wont load today)

Thursday started pretty uneventful. Woke up, washed my face, took my thyroid med and off to get busy. I sat down at my computer to look up a recipe and I was sooooo dizzy. I said to myself why am I so dizzy, maybe I need to eat something! I stagger in the kitchen and said no its not low blood sugar. I am sooooooooooo tired and dizzy. Then Boom it hit me, the pill i took this morning was pink, not white. OH MY GOD, I took a sleeping pill. I turn around and richie says whats wrong? I told him, he looked at my like I was a complete idiot and I just said, I have to go back to bed. So back I went for an hour (its all I had to spare) then back to the kitchen to cook. While Richie does the majority of the cooking here at the Welch's, I do most of the holiday cooking. Plus Nana was coming from the home for thanksgiving and I needed all my wits about me as I had to drive her back home to visalia later that night. Needless to say, it all worked out but unfortunately I wasn't sleep to get any sleep that night. Ugh. Here's a few pics of my dishes. Now while the composition are not great, the food tasted marvelous.
