1. Just the two of us home for dinner. Himself stopped at the fish market and brought a piece of swordfish home. I found an amazing recipe baked swordfish with grilled veggies. Delicious
2. One of my beginning calligraphy students sent me a picture of the placecards she made for her Thanksgiving table. Made me smile to see her put her budding skill to work
3. Found one of my Girl Scout troop friends on Facebook.
4. A blog buddy sent a very cute virtual Thanksgiving card.
5. Roasted chestnuts as a special treat for myself and a remembrance of Dad.
How was your week?
Wishing you and your family a Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. Hope you had an enjoyable holiday, too
DeleteMy keyboard is still not working. Stopped by to let you know I was here and to wish you a beautiful Thursday, happy belated Thanksgiving, and wonderful Friday.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Elizabeth. Sounds like the keyboard needs some percussive maintenance. =^,.^=
DeleteGlad you had a good week. Those roasted chestnuts have inspired me to treat myself to some when I go to the market! Happy Weekend, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
DeleteSounds like a pretty great week to me! One of the main reasons I joined FB is to try and keep in touch with my old classmates from high school and some family who do not live nearby any longer.
ReplyDeleteHow nice of your friend to send you a virtual card.
Have a great weekend, CJ!
FB is a good way to keep in touch. And fun to find old friends.
DeleteAll in all it sounds like there is lots to be happy about this week 😁. So nice to have a special swordfish dinner with your hubby and it must be so rewarding to see your student putting her calligraphy skills into practice. So funny ... an old friend contacted me on Facebook this week, it was so lovely to hear from her 😁. Wishing you a Happy Friday and Weekend! J 😊
ReplyDeleteThe swordfish dinner for two was a nice surprise. Normally, I don't her from students after they have taken a class so it was very nice of her to share her work. My friend and I have planned a lunch date in a couple of weeks.That should be fun as well as make a nice T Stands for post. =^,.^=
DeleteGreat week for me too. Short week at work, nice quiet Thanksgiving, some fun time out with the hubby. Got to love it! Your week sounds excellent too. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteA short work week and spending time with hubby are a good thing.
DeleteSounds like a great week! :)
ReplyDeleteIt was. Hope you're feeling better
DeleteGot some very cute crocheted mail this week! Did a bunch of engraving gigs. Therefore I not only indulged my inner princess but SUPER indulged her and ordered Thanksgiving dinner DELIVERED, all I had to do was warm it up.
ReplyDeleteWow, Cos, I'm impressed. Ordered and delivered Thanksgiving dinner. The tiara is certainly yours this week.
Deletesounds like a great week. I have never had chestnuts. Very curious about what they are like. Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteRoasted chestnuts are soft and creamy when roasted.
DeleteSounds like a great week! I would love to try the chestnuts! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYou can find them in your grocery store in produce. To roast preheat oven 350o F. With flat side of chestnut down, use a sharp knife to make an X on each chestnut. This cut will allow the steam to vent. Place chestnuts on baking sheet and bake for 20 min. Allow to cool and then peel the skins off and eat. You might find one or two bad chestnuts. Rotted or moldy inside, be sure to toss those.
