of a brand new year. It is a bright sunny day with the temperature hovering at 23 degrees F. It is not supposed to get much warmer than that. At least there is no snow on the ground now and none in sight for the next few days. That is good news.
Recapping the last few days. New Year’s Eve, bedtime at 10 PM. I figured the New Year would arrive without me watching for it, and it did. New Year’s Day I went with my daughter and son in law to Applebees to eat. That was fun and I didn’t have to cook.
Thanks to a Christmas gift from my niece in WV I am awaiting a gift package from Omaha Steaks. This meant I had to clean out my freezer. Hopefully the boxes will fit in there OK. If not I will be having a feast right away. The package is supposed to arrive in the next day or two. This also means I have to stick pretty close to home.
I am in the process of changing my recipe space from wordpress over to Blogger. When I get it all finished I will let you know. Right now I am liking the looks of it, so much nicer looking than wordpress. So far I have moved over 100 recipes with quite a lot more to do. Bringing back lots of good memories for me, even remembering Jim’s favorite song, “You’re Gonna Miss Me When I’m Gone.” He used to kid with me all of the time about that song. And you know what, he was right, I do miss him.
Time to get back to moving recipes. I hope this week is a good one for us all. Stay safe and be happy!
I tend to agree with you.. so much more you can do with blogger than wordpress. Can't wait to see what it looks like.Moving things is such a time consuming thing.. but glad you will have a place to view those wonderful ones you have. QUESTION.. are you going to keep the wordpress one anyway as a backup? The new year is 3 days old and you are working already.. send me some of your energy okay? LOL : )
ReplyDeleteYes, I will keep the wordpress one as a backup.
ReplyDeleteWas in bed New Years eve at the same time. Three days into the new year and I haven't done much of anything.
ReplyDeleteNo snow here and in the 30's. Movin recipes and clearing ah spot for steaks, yer busy! Hope you have a wonderful week Beth.
ReplyDeleteWe sit at 25 and I'm happy because there's no wind at least. We are going out pretty soon and hope to go out for pizza as a family...now that is the way to start the first Monday of the year!
ReplyDeleteMy Eve was the same as yours, bliss actually. Quiet, 2 sweet furry cats and me. Loved it.
ReplyDeleteI saw your recipes moving like crazy! Funny thing was, so many I saw and said, "hey, I make that!" Oh yes, 50's and 60's had the best yummy foods, didn't they :D
Those steaks sound mighty, mighty good. I'm assuming you're having a bbq for all of us?
Yes, I know you miss Jim :( The missing never goes away, but you know what? I shows what a great man he was to have been loved SO extra much.
Well, shortly I need to get back to taking all the Christmas stuff down and packing it away, so I better get a move on.
XOXOXO
I was asleep before midnight. I had to work the next day. I might have already said that on one of your earlier blogs but I am bleery eyed after reading a whole bunch of blogs trying to catch up.
ReplyDeleteI already wished you a Happy New Year... oh what the hell..Happy New Year Beth!
Early to bed AND steaks?? Is that bliss or what? OMG, I just realized how old that sounds!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, Beth.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week Beth I will be checking out your recipe's soon. cold dull and ok today at least there's no snow. Hugs Sheila x
ReplyDeleteHi Beth,
ReplyDeleteThings have been hectic but happy, mostly, here. New Year's Eve was a late one, spent at church, fellowship followed by prayer and short service at 11.30 into New Year, which was lovely. When I got home about 1 a.m. there was a full scale party going on in my block which lasted until about 4.30.a.m. so, not much sleep at all that night. Still a bit blurry eyed. My main computer, has gone awry, hard drive, disc completely wiped clean - lost everything, that was not backed up by disc. Friend from church, is hopefully, restoring and resetting for us, whatever that means. take care _ Hugs - Nita
I wonder if they have arrived yet?
ReplyDeleteIts been nice here. I havent been out that much and finally did go to the store today.
ReplyDeleteGlad your moving your recipes Beth . Im always looking for something new to make. We had a dinner on New Years with friends and all I made was lassangna ans a four layer delight and of cousre surpise dip salad and a few other things.
Hugs and stay warm
Sounds like a wonderful gift. Was quiet around here on New Year's eve. It happens whether we're awake or not.
