Happy New Year

Hope you have a wonderful 2014!

How fun

Magellan and I went for breakfast yesterday for our stuffed strawberry french toast. When we got our coffee, they put it in a Christmas mug.  We were surprised but delighted, ha!

White Christmas??

All of our snow melted this past week.  I couldn't believe it.  I thought we wouldn't have a white Christmas.  However, looks like we might have a little bit.

My brother and his wife are coming tomorrow.  I'm cooking and getting ready for that.  Luckily, the house cleaner came Saturday so there is not much to clean.  Merry Christmas to me, lol.

I know some people have a hard time at Christmas when things aren't going right.  So....

HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Dinner friends

We had our Christmas dinner at a French bistro.  The restaurant was charming and the food was magnifique...




I had Filet Mignon roti aux Herbes et nappe de Sauce Moutarde which was Herb  Roasted Filet Mignon (pork) spread lightly with Mustard Sauce

For dessert I had Chocolate Mousse.  (It looks kinda of creepy in the picture, ha.  It looked cuter in person).

Cccold Outside

I think we might be in for a bad winter.  It's been freezing here already.

To top it off, I started jury duty yesterday (bad). I was supposed to go for five days ending on Tuesday.  However, today they said we didn't have to come back (good).  I never even went to a courtroom to be questioned to be a juror, ha!  They said that happens sometimes when you start in the middle of the week.  I forgot how much colder it is downtown with the wind from the lake, brrr.
