Holiday Fun Times

I’m adding this to “healthy eating” but I know most will turn their nose up, thinking, “that ain’t healthy food”. However, it’s all about portion control to me. I come prepared to eat a little and then put the same amount in my Tupperware containers. Yes. I travel with containers. 😉

Plus I continue to workout even through the holiday season…

Granny made it and its: 1 1/4 cups of can of cranberry juice cocktail concentrate, 1 1/4 cups tequila, 1 cup canned jellied cranberry sauce, 10 tbsp fresh lime juice, 6 tbsp orange liqueur, 7 cups of ice cubes.

Talk about tasty!!!

On to the gifts. We open on Christmas Eve since everybody is grown around here. 🙂 My dog got a gift from his “cousin”, Mr. Gatsby. Yeah. The dogs exchange gifts.

Granny got her laptop. I’m sure there will be a Facebook post or twenty about this one (regarding her questions, comments, and suggestions:))…

My grandad was fussing because granny was taking too long to open her gift. Lol

I’m blessed enough to have two families! So on Christmas Day, I volunteered at the region’s largest homeless shelter with my siblings, dad, and uncle, then ate at their house later that evening.
