Holiday Fun

by Tiff

I know I don’t usually post on Sunday, but I wanted to share some weekend highlights.  Monday will be back to the daily grind, better portion control, and regularly scheduled posts.

Kevin and I hosted again this year.  It was a small crowd of my and his parents, mine staying for the entire weekend.

Even though I wasn’t feeding an army, I got a huge turkey anyway… along with extra wine.  It’s best to be prepared.

I didn’t burn anything, and no one experienced travel issues.  I guess that means it was a success.  Extra leftovers were an added bonus.

I’ll share links to the winning recipes once I can locate all of them again.  (Yes, I realize this is the actual point of Pinterest.  Perhaps I should use it productively instead of just clicking around for funny cat pictures.)

We wrapped up the weekend with Black Friday shopping and football.  ‘Twas fun.

  • Are you as big a fan of leftovers as I am?

Cold Turkey

by Tiff

I came off the detox cold turkey. No more crazy (and crazy-expensive) health foods here! I enjoyed a regular, good old-fashion, cold turkey sandwich on pumpernickel for lunch. And yes, it hit the spot.

I was upset that I told Kevin he could eat all the leftover turkey for lunch this week. He announced Wednesday night that he was sick of the turkey, and I announced I was sick of the detox. Therefore, the turkey was all mine. Muahaha!

I’m heading out to the gym now, and I’m pretty excited. It’s 5 a.m. on a Friday, and I’m excited to hit the gym? Yeah – it’s because I had a great workouts yesterday. (20 minutes elliptical, 30 hard minutes on the bike, a cool-down walk, and 15-20 minutes of core work) Oh, and I also wore Clemson gear to get ready for tomorrow’s championship game.

I’m also excited to hit the gym because Kevin’s company holiday party is tonight. I get to wear my sequin dress again, and the dress really shows off my arms. Curls for the girls husband.
