Carol - We are having our go to starter - blinis with faux caviar and half fat creme fraiche. No cooking, just warming the blinis in the microwave. Then Dover Sole with brown butter, lemon juice and brown shrimp. Then a small portion of plum kulfi (ice cream) I made ages ago from our own plums, with plum puree. Not much cooking.
Can't find the wine at the moment in our vast collection. Will have to set DH on the job.

Don't know how old Max is but I got my grandson a Q-Ba-Maze by Mindware. It's a marble maze toy, it is cubes that they have to put together to figure out how to get the marbles to run. Some of the kits come with stunts, like a trampoline the marbles bounce off of. A cool engineering type toy. My grandson is 6 but it's good for kids up to 10 or 12 I would think.
I'm busy trying to finish up my Christmas shopping. All the family will be here Christmas Day so it's quite the production. And gift opening is quite something with 20 people there! I buy all the grandkids 3 gifts. Yes, 3. They all get a book. They all get a set of clothes (that I usually make but this year I'm buying some) and they all get a "toy", although the older ones are getting non-toy items now. Oddly enough it's the books that are the hardest to buy. I keep a list so I don't buy a child the same book that I gave an older sibling. Finding books that are acceptable, age appropriate and of the genre the kids like is difficult sometimes. If only they could all have stayed babies, board books are easy! lol

afternoon/evening ladies~
ohhh what an absolutely fabulous time this afternoon.. the dinner with all the trimmings was lovely I just had a taste of things, and the harp meditation divine!! this woman is a trained psychotherapist and fell in love with harp music and found that it is a great healer.. and what a beautiful afternoon, so refreshing.. one of the ladies that went was my old next door neighbor who just lost her husband who was my age 6 months ago.. it was very healing for her.. so I broke out my $50.00 and bought 4 cds. gave her one, and my dear friend Bev one for her and her mom, keeping one for myself.. and got one for Faith for Christmas.
Have Chester here with me, and his is a big goof ball, passed out on the bed next to me.. went to Bevs afterwards and had tea, wine and a few little desserts and wonderful conversation... what a beautiful way to end the week..11 -

Hi Gals,
Lisa – thanks for the lead, why my brain broke down and never thought of salsa I don’t know!
Kelly – HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! It doesn’t sound silly at all, in fact I like a bit of fuss over me on my birthday
Heather – as a gift for you, maybe a donation in your name to a favorite charity or cause?
Allie – what a great afternoon!
Cool clear day here in N. California, did one load of laundry and hung it on the line, all most all dry, one load a day if I am hanging it, it has to be out early and stay all day… but I love the lower power bill, the tread lighter on the planet, and the smell of line dried clothes…
I had some ripe but ugly tomatoes from my first pass yesterday of the tomato plants with the plan to remove them, and so for lunch today, I peeled them with some basil, and thyme from the garden some frozen bell pepper pieces and a handful of rice noodles just slowly cooked it until it was simple tomato soup, no cream, no fat – but tasted fresh and tomato-ie! I love tomato soup with grilled cheese but I did cheese on a slice of bread under the broiler – saved me 1 slice of bread and the butter to make real grilled cheese.
Embroidery is going great, almost more than I can keep up with, but what a great problem to have.
I’ve started on my Christmas shopping, my Mom was really liking a pair of slacks from a catalog she shops from (Damon and Draper) but was be-moaning the price, so threw the catalog out – I snagged it when she wasn’t looking and did it online, by the time I was done with all the coupons and deals for signing up I got 3 pair of pants for the price of 1! 2 for Christmas and I save one – a more spring color for her March birthday. My nephew has flannel PJ bottoms on his list I found 2 pair – very new looking at the local thrift store for $3 each..So I am well on my way and completely within budget. The nice thing is those two are the hardest for me to shop for. Mom never wants anything, and my nephew only wants things out of my price range.
Smiles

Happy Birthday Kelly. We love to celebrate with you. Treat yourself to something you enjoy, a good book by the fire, a bubble bath or just anything to celebrate you.
Heather- Happy Anniversary. Your dinner sounds wonderful.
Lenora- missing you and hoping you are ok.
Thinking about Christmas makes me nervous. My grands range from 24 to 11 and there are 9 of them. I will think about that tomorrow (or after Thanksgiving) Right now just getting through each day feeding 7 extra takes all m energy.
Have a great evening.

Question: can you make roasted Brussels sprouts ahead of time? I’d love to have them for Thanksgiving, but I only have one oven. I don’t think i can fit them in if I have to do them at the last minute. I may have to stick with green beans I can do on top of the stove.
Edited to add: never mind! I found a recipe on Skinny Taste for roasted Brussels Sprouts and Butternut squash with bacon and soy maple sauce that said you could undercook it by 5 minutes, then heat and toss with the sauce right before serving. I might try that one, substituting double Brussels Sprouts and no squash, since we will have the traditional sweet potato casserole. I will try it another time with the squash, because it looks yummy!6 -

We're having a gorgeously warm week this week ... of course, I've got to work so I don't get to enjoy much of it, but I will be heading out for a walk momentarily (lunch) and do plan to walk this evening too ... probably to the beach, and most likely in the water!
I actually find walking on the wet sand in the cold water at our beach helps the arthritis in my feet, so I'm really hoping we can do that at least a couple days this week.
