It didn't slip my mind but there is still much going on here. I spend until January 10th celebrating the Christmas season, New Years, and my birthday which was Monday. I review the past year and set goals and of course, celebrate in my own quiet fashion.
It was very good. I served it with broccoli. I also made myself a cherry dump cake but instead of using pie filling I use unsweetened cherries in juice. I have to have it with butter pecan ice cream too! LOL! I try to eat healthy except on special days and I figure my birthday is one of them! I turned 67 but it was no big deal because all last year I thought I was 67 already! I did that one other year when I was 44...I thought I was 45 all that year......you can tell age doesn't phase me.
Since my girls are all rescue animals, I don't know when their birthdays are so we all celebrate on my birthday too. They each got a little bowl of ice cream! I wanted to watch a movie....The Holiday but it wasn't available for free so I watched Zorro instead. We even had coke with ice and popcorn I made (the girls got a couple kernels of popped corn but no coke with ice). It was a fun day and the food and snacks were delicious! LOL!
I also have 2 other birthdays in January so I started to quickly make some finger-less mitts for my son and another try at a hat for my SIL.
There's much more done on the mitts since this picture was taken but I have to make 2 so I best hurry up! LOL! Today I spent most of the day gong through and clearing out old files and setting my budget up for 2016.
I also froze some chicken broth I made using only boneless chicken breasts and you won't believe how good it tastes! I used this recipe
I just saved the liquid and I then labeled 1 quart freezer bags and put 2 cups in each bag. If you use a bowl and a funnel you don't need one of those fancy bag holders. It worked like a charm!
I've been doing a little cleaning too....but not much! LOL!
Happy New Year and Happy Trails!
