Planning Christmas
I try to get all my Christmas shopping done before Thanksgiving. One, I can spread out the cost of the presents. Two, if something happens I’ve still got time to make a change (or buy something else!). Three, when we put up the tree on Thanksgiving weekend, it looks complete with the wrapped presents underneath.
I have most of it finished. A few people to buy for, but the ideas are there.
I think this is what my husband is getting – in black.

Dinner was Yummy tonight
We tried a new crock pot recipe tonight, and it turned out great! It’s a Ladies Home Journal recipe. I think I pulled it off the MSN food/recipe site.

2. Place the potatoes, onion and garlic in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker; top with chicken.
