 We're going over to my brother's and he's going to do all the cooking which is fine by me! I got to bring the dessert. How lucky is that! I'm having it easy this year. :)

 We're going to a neighbors who's having a party and it's potluck. It's going to be a nice relaxing day for me too. :)

 I drew the short straw and am hosting the in-laws for a dinner. I'm joking. They aren't that bad. :) Enjoy your days off, ladies! 


When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a rose with the other.

 We did nothing at all because we've both been under the weather. We didn't feel like stuffing ourselves with food the way we normally do. It was a light dinner of salmon and salad and that was just fine.

 We ate too much, drank too much (soda!) and made too much mess. And a good time was had by all! :)

 Hope you're all better now, cheapncheerful. We ate and ate and ate some more, took a nap, then got up and did it all again with the leftovers LOL. :)
