What's on your Sunday menu weekenders?

/\ Me if I lived in or near QJB's place!

Good mornin y'all!

I felt really crummy yesterday but so far I'm feeling better. My shoulder is still killing me but it's manageable. I had a major slip up. My nieces birthday party is next weekend and I was so worried about Christmas I didn't get her a big gift for her birthday. She is into dragons and her viola. So I made her some tshirts and I ordered her an articulated 3D printed dragon that's 26 inches long! And it's pink. She is going to adore it!

Not much planned today. We may run to the dollar tree. We need a few disposable pans. We may run to get the few things we need for next weekend. My brothers birthday is the 15th (Riley's is the 12th) so we're doing a combo type get together. I'm making my brother an egg custard pie and Riley requested a dirt cake. I am giving my brother cash and the fudge her requested. My SIL is coming by today but I forget why. Oh something to do with a present or something.

QOTD: kind of referring back to yesterday's QOTD what scent is your absolute favorite? Not necessarily a candle but just a scent that you love to smell. Could be fresh baked bread or freshly done laundry.

For me it's freshly baked pepper nut cookies. I've only made them twice but they are just to die for. For a more coming scent it'd be fresh bread(s). Nothing simpler and yummy.

B: eggs, cheese and coffee x 2 and unfortunately a cookie

L: spaghetti - will probably get some spaghetti squash for me.

D: probably leftovers from lunch

have a great day everyone! 15 days till Christmas!

Good morning, Mel! That dragon sounds awesome. I love dragons, I'm trying to convince my bestie that our matching tattoos should be dragons, lol.

up and at it early this Sunday morning. I have a mid morning flight (9 am) so I got up early, got in my rowing and also did a very nice IT band stretch session. Because of all the travel, my rowing hasn't been as consistent and I noticed yesterday my hips and IT were super tight and sore.

We had so much fun seeing Six yesterday, I swear if I could cram it into my schedule I'd see it again before it leaves but I don't realistically see that happening. I might try to persuade so friends to go see it on Broadway with me next year.

qotd - the smell of coffee is always high on my list

i will have a yogurt before heading to the airport, have nuts and cheese for plane snack and I'm meeting some old coworkers for dinner at a steak place tonight so I'll have filet and asparagus.

have a great Sunday everyone!

Safe travels and enjoy that filet!!!

For about three years after my weight loss surgery, I craved fresh bread. The smell of bread baking is my favorite. When I finally allowed myself to have a piece of freshly baked bread it was not as good as I remembered. My mother baked fresh bread all the time and nothing out there now is as good.

The smell of fresh baked bread is the best!

Post testing.

I see this post

Thanks! I was blocked from posting last week for weird technical or bandwidth reasons. Checking that it works now that I'm back in the US.

Jim said he sometimes can't post when he's overseas, either. I don't think I've had issues with this, so it probably depends on the country

There were a few days with technical issues, like the site being down most of one day. I haven't had any problems posting internationally but there are always variables!
