LOL my sister just sent me a link to Charlie Browns Christmas....
 
I hate to say this... but half of my sales since August have been Christmas stuff... Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled with the activity, but I have to admit it was hard packing up snowman dishes when it was still a hundred degrees out!
 
DH's back can be "temperamental" due to autoimmune condition. It was time to change to winter tires, so I did it! With supervision by DH (and we din't even squabble!), I changed the tires! Not angling to change over to summers next year, but glad I actually know how. Got to use power tool, and the torque wrench.

Could I do this again? Mmhmm. But I'd need supervision again, 'cause I let that technical stuff float right outta my punkin' haid. Stuff like how to set the torque wrench to 100 pounds, which adapters to use for bolts, etc. [Eye glaze over...] :lol:

Well, I guess it's good that people are planning early! I just cant with the Xmas music!

I'm impressed @SparklieBug ! I'm the same way with not retaining not-important-information (well, not important to me)!
 
HI:

I love olives stuffed with garlic or almonds. I could eat an entire jar in one sitting.

cheers--Sharon

I love them too, but maybe only a small jar!
They are so delicious, and much more interesting than the ubiquitous olives stuffed with red pimento.
 
I love dates stuffed with goat cheese wrap in bacon… and thick aged balsamic vinegar drizzled on top, with a side of red wine.

Bugs. I call them bugs. Cause they look like cockroaches. And if you eat several, they’re like magical cockroaches :lol:

Great tastes eat alike!!!!!

LOL. My fav Italian shop stopped carrying the really big jar I used to buy--takes up a lot of storage space I guess. But I found another brand that is just as yummy but the olives are smaller. My DH and I make short work of those products....LOL

I saw stuffed dates + bacon on a menu the other day..thought it might be yummy....never seen it before....
 
Yum! I love a "skewer" of cherry tomato, a tiny bocconcini, a basil leaf, and drizzled with excellent balsamic reduction. All this on a wooden toothpick.

I've made the dates stuffed with peanut butter dipped in dark chocolate...they're pretty good and I feel like I'm eating a healthier
dessert (which is probably questionable). But hey, anything wrapped in bacon!:lickout:
 
A very big heartfelt THANK YOU to a super sweet super kind and just incredibly generous PSer.
And wonderful friend.
Greg and I thank you and our feral kitties thank you :kiss2: :kiss2: :kiss2:
 
Finally it’s over
 
HI:

OKOKOK I might have watched 1 Christmas show last night.......... :lol:

cheers--Sharon
 
OK Sharon, please spill, You opened the gate here. Was it a feel good movie and worth the watch? if so, please name the movie. A few of us could use a bit of feel good, mindless fun for a few hours.

Someone here recommended a Christmas movie last year. Maybe it was the year before. It was one of those days that the grief of losing my dad was hitting me like a ton of bricks. I know you understand this with your mom). There was a song in the movie sung by Dean Martin that my dad used to sing to me when I was a little girl. I hear a Dean Martin song now and I take it as a sign from my dad that he’s ok (crazy I know). I could have hugged that PSer. Her recommendation brought me so much peace that day.
 
HI:

Anyone need this?

Check the entire auction out!!!!!!! Some excellent stuff!

cheers--Sharon

It was this movie, CC. I enjoyed it. But I like James Brolin. And his wife, Barbara sang Christmas songs that I know so well.....

 
HI:

DH asked about the pumpkins in our house. My face--he knows he has no pumpkin control.

cheers--Sharon
 
The Canada Post strike is really annoying me! I realize I have very little room here to vent as I am in the U.S., but I've got a big order all packed up and ready to ship to Canada... and in my basement it sits! I've looked into UPS and Fed Ex, but for various reasons they are not good options. More importantly, I'm sure there are Canadians waiting for BLING that is held up in transit -- tragic! Anyway, no real point to this other than to say I really hope this gets resolved quickly.

Justin... can you do anything about this?! :lol:
