The Last Days of January

In January, we had some pretty rainy, foggy, and just bleh days.  


Thankfully the last week or so of January, we had some breakthrough in the weather and had some very nice, clear, sunny days!



Miss Fig.  Getting bigger and bigger all the time!

She's so pretty!


This year, I am focusing on spending some one-on-one time with my girls.  This month, we had a lunch date at Subway.  Sierra and I on our date.




"What?" she says.


Autumn and I on our date.


In the winter, you take every chance, though slim, to soak up the sunshine.


And we finally get a chance to see Mt. Hood after all the foggy and cloudy days!


I came out after getting ready for work and I find this.  Both on their little spot.  Ha!


Lastly, in January we have a day to remember those who died in the Holocaust.  One of the books on my 2022 book list was "We Were the Lucky Ones".  I listened to it via audiobook and wow!  What a good and riveting novel based on a true story.  I encourage you to listen to it.

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. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. (I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.).  Season with salt and pepper.
