Blogidays December 10 - a short one today.........

Hello everyone 

Here are a few photos I’ve saved and think they are all cute 

None of these are things I made- just ideas I like 

Lightbulbs painted and dressed like snowmen

Another snowman made from assorted nuts and 1 washer for the hat brim- then painted 

I think this mug display looks great but I can’t imagine storing away this many mugs when it’s not Christmas season 

Both of these made me laugh - and my husband really laughed when I showed him the mug.  He thought it was perfect for homebody me. 

A few replies 

Cheryl - when Walmart substitutes, it will still be at the price you ordered, not at the higher price of the substitution.  Other substitutes ive gotten have been a 72 ounce bag of frozen roll dough when I ordered and paid for the 36 ounce size,  and many more that I just can’t remember.  

Susie- those green things really are bananas and are just now about ripe enough to eat.  

I’ll be back tomorrow

Merry Christmas everyone

Blogidays December 9 -

Hello everyone 

I went to see my parents today.  The staff at their retirement home decorate for all the holidays.  It seems they’ve cut back quite a bit this year but these are a few pretty things I saw today 

Cute tree with a snowman topper and train at the base 

I like these faux lampposts too- I saw several of them.  

At home I did a little food prep.

We had egg roll in a bowl for supper so early in the day I chopped the veggies and made a small sandwich topping box. 

 

There are many variations of egg roll in a bowl- I browned 1/2 pound ground beef with grated onion,  then added in 3 grated carrots and a pound of diced cabbage.  Let it all cook covered on medium until done, season with low sodium soy sauce and pepper.  Other variations add in more kinds seasoning and other veggies but we like it just like I cooked.  

That pack of ground beef was 1 1/2 pounds.  I’ll use the rest for burgers tomorrow.  

We went to a new store in our town this afternoon.  It’s a discount and salvage type store,  not a chain but a locally owned small business.  

It’s a very nice store.  Everything I looked at seemed cheaper than I remember from other stores.  

So,  we bought a cart of stuff 

A new to me product found at Walmart pickup is Hershey chocolate mint candy canes,  

To me, they taste just like a York peppermint Patty but take a longer eat for just 50 calories.  

  

Replies will be in tomorrow’s post
