Kathy, you look a little more feminine than the Santa I saw earlier in the store. lol

Pag, I almost went the pizza route for the same reason. I decided eat ramen noodles with some bacon for comfort. I am still fighting the flu and studying for finals and, and, and....

Hey DeBora do you mean me in the sig line or me in the avatar box? LOL Both are pretty accurate forms of me!

Cut up four pork chops into bite size pieces coated with bread crumbs and browned them in oil with onions peppers & zucchini squash. After it was browned put it in the pressure cooker with a half cup of water under the rack. Cooked it for twenty minutes. Also made a sweet potato in the microwave and a salad.
Was a fast meal and delicious.

Kathy, I thought that thing in your siggy line was a wooley boogar--at least that what they call it here in West Texas. LOL

Monday will be chili in the crockpot.

How right Barb is December is a busy month at my house. Winter track, cheering for basketball, cheer practice for competition are all in full swing for December.
