| Some very nice gifts for Christmas. |
 |
| Thank you mom for the beautiful espresso machine. I never had one that did two cups at one time, will be a nice time saver! |
 |
| From Bob, a mandolin to slice all those onions for French onion soup, and also because he saw this recipe and wants me to make it and I said "No way I'm hand cutting all those potatoes!" |
 |
| Owl slippers I had my eye on last year. |
 |
| Plaid sneakers this year |
 |
| One of our favorite Mexican restaurants in Atlanta put out a cookbook! Xmas dinner was made from these recipes. Six hours straight in the kitchen UGH! |
 |
| Easy recipes, but very labor intensive. A lot of fine chopping for the Mexican rice. |
 |
| Fresh squeezed and homemade everything for these luscious margaritas. |
 |
| Ready for dinner! |
 |
| Bob's requested meal consisted of Chicken Fried Steak with Tobasco Gravy, mashed potatoes and Mexican rice. He also had one of my cheese enchiladas with lemon cream sauce. |
 |
| My plate, cheese enchiladas with lemon cream sauce and Mexican rice, my usual order at the restaurant. I can't believe they had opened a location in Willow Grove. I went there when my mom had her heart attack, but after a year it was gone. |
 |
| Just two days before Christmas I went to a thrift store in another town and I hit the jackpot. It must have been because everyone was busy getting ready for Christmas, but this was like Christmas Day for me! A bunch of beauties! |
 |
| I have three friends with birthdays in January. One is getting a book Bob found, the other a granny square afghan that she likes and this one is kind of a joke, the Property Brothers gnomes. She thinks those guys are cute, and I don't, so I got them for her in garden ornament form. This will be fun! |
