An ‘Expert’, me?! Most certainly!

I can also tell you a whole lot about Military Deployment and the support that you can find out there when you need it most. Why? Because I have “Been there. Done that!” If you haven’t heard about Military Answers, you should stroll on over to see what questions are out there that other military-families are asking for help with. It’s as close as a mouse click. BUT if you really want to help, become an “Answers Expert!” After you sign up with an Answers account…

With the Thanksgiving Holiday behind us and the craziness of Christmas ahead of us it is easy to forget what we can continue to be Thankful for!

Turkey in a Puff LeftoversTurkey Celebrated!
We always have a large crowd over for the holidays. Name the holiday – we love to entertain. When it is appropriate to have a spread with a turkey dinner… we roast a big bird… a mighty big bird! Because that means there will be enough gravy several nights of turkey leftovers. I love it. Dale loves it. We are happy people at this time of year!Turkey in a puff started out to be ham in a puff.

The Season of Advent
I have to admit. I have WAY TOO MANY Christmas decorations. Not that my house looks like a gaudy gingerbread-house when all is said and done… but that in these days of craziness it takes me two or three days to get it all done. In some ways I just don’t look forward to dragging it all out of the basement, setting it up and then taking it down in a month (or less). BUT I have to admit once I have all the decorations out, I can sit back and relax (between the craziness, of course), and I do truly enjoy the trimmings of the season. One of my…
