Good
morning friends, and a very happy Monday to you all.
I hope you've all been doing well. I am fine now but was sick last week with what seemed to have been a cold/head cold/sinus kinda thing. I'm so thankful that I am well now because truly, there's nothing worse than being sick around Christmas. I guess when we were younger and had no responsibilities, it would have been ok, but when you are hosting, and have a ton to cook and a Christmas to put together, it's not exactly the best thing to be under the weather.
If any of you are sick, I pray you get well soon.
Ok, let's move on with our post for today. I'm trying to get this up quickly because I have a pretty busy homemaking day ahead.
Have a blessed week ♥

I still have many Christmas cards to write and send. Glad to see I'm in good company. Your menus sound good. We love meat loaf.
All the best to you this Christmas season!
Glad you're feeling better my Friend! I have lots of sickies around me and fighting it off hard. Lol I host everything too so I agree - not a good time to catch it. I love the pic of you by the fire. Reading by a fire is absolute relaxation! Prayers and blessings for you to stay well and not stress about the to-do list.

So glad you are feeling better! Mailed my cards only yesterday too... Canada Post was on strike. Have a Merry Christmas!
Wat fijn dat je je beter voelt, ja ik heb al wel kaarten verstuurd en er ook al gekregen. Hartelijke groet!
So glad you're feeling better as I know this is one of your favorite times of the year and hosting when you're not well is just plain miserable. Hugs and prayers for a WONDERFULLY relaxed family Christmas.
