The last time I had surplus coats, I gave them to the Salvation Army along with the donations to their Thanksgiving Dinner food drive, with hopes that they actually went to those who needed them.
Yes, I think Salvation Army doesn't make a profit for sales.
My qualm with SA is that they are not gay-friendly, and oppose same-sex marriage.
Oh well, these coats are really nice, and they're taking up a lot of space on my dining room table!
I was just browsing Facebook and my friends that adopted the baby, had some pics from a professional shoot. He's 15 months and I have no idea where that time went! This kid melts my heart, when I visit he's pretty much at my hip all the time. We play, he gets his blanket and a book and we read, we have snacks. He's just such a well adjusted happy-go-lucky kid. We babysat him a week ago and he was totally cool waving goodbye to mom and dad, not a tear shed. They are coming for Thanksgiving, so that should be fun!

Sorry I haven't been here in a while, my mom has had a rough year and it has ended up with her having a hip replacement and going to an inpatient rehab facility. But she seems to be doing good now and she will be coming home soon.
I just don't have the stamina I once had. I'm pooped out after a day in the kitchen cooking and to think I used to do this kind of holiday cooking without any help at all!
Without my sweet and ever so helpful SousChef, I'd have to hang up my marathon cooking apron for sure! Everything is ready to transport to the oldest son's house tomorrow. Phew!
Time for a glass of wine!!!
I have a similar problem, I only have energy when I first wake up. These days I find myself cooking at 3 or 4 am and eating leftovers for dinner!
All we can do is adapt and soldier on!!!
I'm curious to know what you're making for the low carb crowd PF??
Tomorrow only I'm with the eat anything crowd. I haven't eaten one thing high carb in three months now. I'll prolly make myself sick.
