A Day in my Life - December

Happy December! It's already the last month of 2025.  Here's how the first day of the month went for me.

Are you sick of this view?  It's how I start every day.  On this day I got up around 7 and spent 40 minutes downstairs on the treadmill.

After walking, I got ready, ate breakfast and was out the door at 9. My sister Cheri picked me up to do some shopping.  We are getting ready for our family Christmas party and we had to go out and get things for games and prizes.

It was one of those gray winter days, but thankfully the roads were fairly clear.
We went to several places to get what we needed and were back to my house shortly after 12.

We had lots of little things to wrap so we did that before Cheri went home.

After eating lunch, I cleaned my frig, inside and out. After Thanksgiving, it needed a good clean out.

I did a little decorating on the front porch.

In the meantime, it started snowing again, but just gentle little snowflakes.  They had predicted up to 6 inches, but thankfully, this one missed us.

I spent a little time finishing the wrapping of gifts.

Before I knew it, it was supper time.  We had oven roasted sausage and veggies which is quick to make and always tasty.

After supper, I lit a Christmas candle and our trees.  I love a pine scented candle and the lights on the trees are so cheerful.

After a little computer time, checking on all of you I decided it was time to work on Christmas cards.  I was up till almost midnight, but I got them done and ready to be mailed.
It was a good day - got lots of things crossed off my to do list and had fun doing it!

Cooking Thursday

We like pulled pork sandwiches and also like sliders. I decided to combine a few recipes and make sliders with pulled pork. If you have pulled pork already made, these can be put together in no time!  They were very tasty and a fun twist on pulled pork.

Pulled Pork Sliders

Hawaiian Rolls (12 pack)
Prepared BBQ pulled pork (you can make your own and purchase it already made)
Cheddar cheese slices
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon mustard

Slice open the Hawaiian rolls and lay the bottom halves in a 7x11 pan.  Spread the pulled pork over all and then cover with cheddar cheese slices.  Place tops of rolls on.
Melt the butter and stir in the Worcestershire sauce and mustard.  Brush over tops of the rolls.
Cover pan with foil. Place in 350 degree oven for 25 minutes.
