Yup, still have the November blues, but only 8 days to go.
Hubby was very busy today getting the lawn tractor ready for it's winter sleep and the snow blower for it's grand entry. I made lasangna, two full pans, for supper today and the next few days. I'll freeze the extra, which will be enough for two dinners for us or a meal for all if we have company over for supper. It took a ridiculously long time too make it all (3 hours which includes the clean-up time), but it will be worth the effort later this winter.
I guess I need to start getting ready to do my Christmas baking now. This week I'll try to get my doughs together (gingerbread and shortbread) so I can just roll them out, bake and decorate when the mood strikes me. Then I can send some off to the family in the big city.
After that, I still need to make my Cranberry/Orange loaves.
Plus my Almond Bark.
Plus the meat pie for Christmas Eve dinner.
And Hubby will have to plan and do the Wife Saver's Breakfast for Christmas morning.
Man for two people that's a lot of cooking!
Also, Hubby has talked me into going to the company Christmas party, so I'm going to have to see if I can squeeze into any of my party dresses. Maybe I'll just have to buy something new. And, shoes. There'll probably have to be new shoes!
Were am I going to find the time for all this?
Oh, and we're still thinking about a new vehicle. It might even be this...

Those lasagnas look really, really good! Do you freeze them in the pan like that??
That truck would be nice! I've always looked the look of Dodges :-)
The 2nd lasagna I put it in the fridge to cool overnight. Then I cut them into 4 pieces. Wrap them in wax paper, then stretch and seal and I also place them into a bag and seal.
Two pieces will fit nicely into a 8x8 pan. Reheat and you have 2 full meals.
