I spent a quiet new Years day. One good thing about my meds is that there were no after effects from over indulgence.
The granddaughter, her man and the 2 great granddaughters were over for the evening meal. Once again the Queen bypassed the turkey aand made delicious peper steak, baked potatoes and corn.Yahoo there's just enough left over for my meal tonight as the Queen returns o work. I was going to bake a cake but all the grocery stores were closed so I couldn't get Betty's raw ingredients. It's strange, most stores were open Christmas day on weekend hours. I guess store owners didn't want emplyee's with self inflicted illness greeting customers.
I'm ashamed of my self. I never took Abbey on her hike due to the wind chills. I recently saw a comercial where it said that no self respecting Canadian would put some off due to cold weather. Today I'll bundle up and get her out on the gopher trails to regain my self esteem and prove that I'm truly Canadian.:)
The Queen just rose, it's time for the morning chat and coffee with her. I shall return to say hello to my fellow bloggers.

What kind of cake are you going to do next? If I had a vote, I would say applesauce spice!
Hope you and Abbey are able to stay warm today!
Glad to hear New Years was good to all of you. Mine was nicely quiet and for dinner I had chicken chili...Still have some left over for today too with wheat crackers.
Guess I better finish moving the furniture around in the livingroom again and uncovering the heating registers...Burrr going to need it with temps in the 20s today and tomorrow. At least we are not as cold at Ottawa who is in the single digits F. Have a great day dear one, dress warm when going out with Abbey even if its a short walk. Stay well and stay safe.
Tell ya what, after growing up in Minnesota and experiencing frozen skin, if the wind chills are low, stay indoors.
If your skin freezes, Abbeys nose may well freeze too.
