Tonight, we went to see the final chapter of Harry Potter’s story, to conclude the “marathon” that we had started 4 days ago. I have now finally seen all the HP movies, in the...
Last but not least, this is the cake I elected to make for Christmas night at my mom’s with the whole family. I had spotted it a few months ago, again, on Jennifer’s site...
I’m still not done posting all the goodies (or nasties!) that I did for Christmas. These popcorn balls were part of the “family kits” I was making for my brothers. I thought the kids...
This would be my daughter’s ultimate favorite meal. It was my first attempt at making one from scratch today. I think I did not too bad. I used yesterday’s turkey’s bones to make a...
Let’s take a break from all the sweets, shall we? I still have a few more to come, but for now, I want to report what was for supper yesterday. We usually celebrate Christmas...

As soon as I was done working out this morning, I started cooking for Christmas and finished only at 9 tonight. Needless to say I didn’t feel like cooking supper after that. Besides, I...
After having spent the day out shopping, I was glad that what was on my list for tonight was a quick and easy meal. My mom ended up staying the night yesterday, so she...
