Christmas was great this year. It was just me and "C" and the kitties. I was lucky enough to get out of work at 2:45pm on Thursday the 23rd it is soo unusual for me to leave work before 6:30 that I actually saw my night commute in broad daylight, and boy is it ugly! My morning commute is so beautiful, I get over a bridge in the Tampa Bay area called the Sunshine Skyway Bridge I have to say it's an inspirational view. Now the trip home is much shorter but so ugly.
Anyway we went to dinner Thursday night at a little Mom & Pop Italian restaurant, we had a coupon so we tried it. Now the food was wonderful, except that part of "C"s chicken wasn't cooked all the way which can happen so we didn't freak. The thing is that we told our server, and she told us to hold on and took another table's order. So we saw the manager and told her about the raw food/salmonella deal, and she fixed it ASAP. I really did like my food, I just didn't like the fact it was a strip mall kind of place to eat with about 10 tables, 2 servers, 1 cook, 1 manager, and 1 owner. Our server was not good. We decided that we would call in the order next time and pick it up and take it home.
Friday was spent at the grocery store getting all of our Christmas Eve/ Christmas day fixins'. I made little mini pizzas and "C" put out the fancy cheese & crackers we drank wine... a good time was had by all. Oh and we watched Napoleon Dynamite it made me laugh, the kid is such a spazzzz!
We found a Tony Chachere's (Satcher-eez) injectible turkey marinade, so we decided to give it a try. Mercy now that was one good and spicy bird. I couldn't believe how good that stuff was, we injected the bird on Friday night and let it sit over night, and put it in the oven after "C" rubbed the bird down with Tony Chachere's Cajun Creole Seasonings and olive oil. It was just sooo good.
I got a bikini top for my jeep, and something called a windjammer for the jeep as well. Sadly it rained all day on Saturday and was too cold to even deal with it on Sunday. I didn't sign up for below 40° in Florida. I can't wait til I can try out my new top. YAY
More later...........
