<p> </p>
<p>Meri,</p>
<p>I hope those allergy meds work for you.</p>
<p>And HAVE FUN tonite!!</p>
<p>(what are you making for the festivities?)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My neck and left shoulder area are still stoff/sore from the previous night's "pinched nerve" or whatever. grrrr.</p>
<p>I'm hoping that it won't bother me on the TM this morn.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The day will be spent getting things pulled together for xmas eve at my Mom's.</p>
<p>There are only five of us...no boys. The meal won't change, just less of it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm making a cranberry/apple/orange sauce [throw in red pepper for a smidge of kick], and then prepping for roasted veggies and cutting/chopping/assembling a garden salad. Looks like I'm the Veggie Queen today. <span><img alt="rolleyes.gif" id="user_yui_3_4_1_7_1324731084250_280" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/rolleyes.gif" style="width:16px;height:16px;"></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sis is baking bread and bringing some of the roasting veggies.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BIL picked up tenderloins...omg...and will grill them at mom's.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Mom will bake pumpkin pie, will do baked potatoes, and possibly the green bean casserole??</p>
<p>She also made sure to get fresh shrimp and plenty of wine.</p>

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>I've got a pork roast with bbq fixings in the slow cooker right now.</span></p>
<p><span>Plan ahead for tomorrow~~~> Bob's mom and brother will be here for either a noon meal or evening, not sure.</span></p>
<p><span>She is SO ding-batty and unorganized (yes, this is THE Aileen). She needs to let me know today so I can plan for tomorrow.</span></p>
<p><span>This happens every year, so I always make something that can be cooked/prepped the day before.</span></p>
<p><span>oy</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>Cheers!</span></p>
