I have no clue what the weather is because my poor confused phone thinks I'm in Alaska
But it's definitely not a white Christmas on the open seas!

DH and I treated ourselves to lunch out since I spent the rest of the afternoon baking for tomorrow. The house smells like cinnamon heaven now.

I saw my girl on our cat camera! My heart is happy.
Sparkle's been sleeping where we can see her most of the time, but Lelia's been a bit camera shy, so it's an extra Christmas treat.

Went to Nicole's for Eve and she had a nice spread. Honey-baked ham, deviled eggs, dill dip and veggies, cheesy potatoes, Meatballs, they are amazing, my mother's recipe. She gave me a container of chocolate chip cookies to take home. I wasn't able to stay long because the pain reared its ugly head so Daniel packed up food and they brought my gifts in the house for me.I usually open them at her house.It's all good now. I was able to lower them early this morning without having to go to er as I sometimes do. Turkey dinner later on but I will have to skip that. It is what it is. Could be worse. I have new pretty pjs that I just washed along with my new throw so I'll be warm and cozy and well fed, oink oink!
What about you guys?

Went to bed and the house was around 60* because we had beautiful weather yesterday. Felt a little warm, LoL, as I've been keeping the heat closer to 50-55* this winter. Woke up this morning so cozy! It dropped closer to 50* and felt so warm and snuggly in my bed! What a wonderful way to wake up for Christmas morning. Should reach almost 60* again today, so the cats can enjoy open windows for most the day!
Nice and quiet this morning, and my Little Red Betta had a good appetite. He's my best indicator if the water quality in the tank is good (Big Blue will eat anything anytime, so he's no help lol).
Poppycat got all his demands met
.
Last night, had a tasty dinner, then watched We Bought a Zoo (nice movie, we enjoyed it) and then watched part of FX's new A Christmas Carol. Wow! It's intense, --they took the story and filled in the blanks, plus tried to be really historically accurate.

I'm sorry to hear you weren't feeling well and in pain but glad you were able to spend part of Christmas Eve with loved ones and are doing better now.
I baked all afternoon into the early evening then DH and I stayed up late to watch a Law & Order marathon. Going to bring my baked goodies to the neighbor's today, it's become a tradition. In fact, I made the recipe from
Winchester
for her apple coffee cake. I hope it tastes as good as hers, here's how it turned out.
We have happy squirrels, they got "in the shell" walnuts from us

We're doing a cruise. Our shore excursion today was actually in Ballarat where I was living the dream.
Sadly, we'd left by the time I saw this. We're headed down to Port Arthur next. Then I think Adelaide?
She's a sweetie!!
Ballarat is one of my favourite towns..has a lot of history.
Some of the roads around the town are made with crushed quartz that have a bit of gold in it so you are really driving down a road paved in gold..lol
Looks like you had a great time with the Wallabies and 'roos..have fun on rest of trip.
Hopefully Kangaroo island is on your tour list when you get to Adelaide...great place to visit.

I can't wait for spring. It's 21 degrees here.
I don't like dessert much, but that looks good. Does it have coffee in it?
Aww, that's the best part, feeding the animals!
I need to try to get to a petting zoo this summer. They usually have them at the county fairs.My positive for today is that I reconnected on Facebook with my best guy friend from over 20 years ago. It's nice to talk to a guy who never lectures me, even though he's 15 years older. We've never had a single argument in all the years we knew each other.
It looks delicious. You can't go wrong with one of Winchester's recipes.I'm sorry to hear you weren't feeling well and in pain but glad you were able to spend part of Christmas Eve with loved ones and are doing better now.

Yes, it does, 3/4 cup of coffee!I don't like dessert much, but that looks good. Does it have coffee in it?
It was a great dessert for brunch.Planning to return a few gifts from yesterday but the positive is Carleton got a new "da bird" toy only it had a fish instead of a bird so I call it, "da fish."
