Black Friday 2021

Are you a Black Friday shopper? I am not. I would much rather stay home! We did go out this year because Eric wanted to. Autumn picked up Kylee and they went out together by themselves. We took Sierra and Summer with us. We hit up the 50% off sock sale at Fred Meyer. We also went to the mall and just walked - no purchasing though. And then lunch at Chick-Fil-A.

When we got home, we pulled out the eggnog and began decorating. :)

Yes, this is how it is gonna be this season with a kitten. LOL!

Using a new tree this year. I got it two years ago on clearance after Christmas and this is the first year to use it.

We watched Elf while we did the tree.

Yeah, it's gonna be a long season.

Little stinker!!

Then we watched The Muppets Christmas Carol. First time for us! It is a good one!

Last, we watched a 2021 new Hallmark movie - The Nine Kittens of Christmas. What is funny is - there were nine kittens and the one the couple adopts at the end was the one that looked like our Figaro! His name was Rudolph in the movie. LOL!

And the movie was set in Bend, Oregon.

And she had a niece in the movie named Sierra. Ha!

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

Happy birthday to my husband, Eric! He turns 45 today. I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami. I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno. We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders. I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz.

(I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.). Season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.
