Ready, set, go! The beginning of the final weekend to prepare for Christmas has begun! This morning, I am driving Michael to his shop to paint a car, will pick him up for lunch, we will head to a custom auto speed shop for cool hoodies for William and British Don and a bit of lunch before dropping him back off at the shop. Someone will drive him back over the pass later today.
In the meantime, I will workout at the other rehab and try to find Duraflame Stax for the fireplace (no odor), swing by the bank and CVS before driving back over the pass. While I am home today, I plan to iron all the linens and set the table for Christmas. Since we are serving Jewish food for Christmas, someone suggested that we have nine candles as the centerpiece with a sprinkling of chocolate gold coins.
I had a fantastic morning yesterday. A dear friend who was a former students at the school where I got sick met me for breakfast. It was joyful to sit across the table from him as he talked with passion about his second year of a PhD program at an Ivy League university. Inspiring. I was so touched that he would take the time to see me, as it is so limited.
We had to cut our visit short as mom needed the shot in her eye again. So, off we went to one campus of her university hospital for blood tests then down miles to the eye campus. While there, we shared our special Christmas breakfast with a staff member who squealed with delight! By the time we left, most of the staff was going to make it on Christmas. Whoever thought this up needs to win an award. Here is the recipe: Buy the best cinnamon rolls in the tube at the market. Cook eight piece of bacon but do not overcook them. Open the tube then unroll each cinnamon roll, lay the piece of bacon on the inside of each roll and roll them up. Cook as directed on the tube. Sweet, salty and delicious! Bacon Stuffed Cinnamon Rolls.
On the way home, there was a major accident on the freeway so all the streets were clogged. It took forever to get back to her house then I had to head over the pass. It was a long day!
