Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Dill, thanks for the link to the lights! Such awesome displays. I've been listening to Christmas music and really feeling the spirit. This just added to that holiday feeling!

This is how old people celebrate here. Haha

Techie, congrats on 5k!! You're an inspiration to me.

CCC is making sure he has nothing in his teeth before he goes out for his morning walk. He has a reputation to maintain as a pretty boy!

I'll take another!

Can't compete with Cyrus of course, but here's the tree. Not bad for a $29 Canadian Tire special eh. It took a bit of time to setup because you had to unfold and shape the branches (even now my OCD has me still correcting a branch once in while haha).

No idea why it's showing up horizontal, the pic I upload is verticle, hmm..,.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Thanks for the light show link dill, quite impressive! We also had some snowy weather yesterday as well, but it's supposed to warm up, so it will definitely be a green Christmas. I can't believe that it's only 6 days away. Yikes!

24 more for all of us please...

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Jude, it's just five days until Christmas!

Thanks for the link to the Christmas Parade, Ginger. That was fun! I can't believe all the effort those folks put into their carts. It looked like everyone had a great time.

Mulburry thanks for taking the time to share your tree. It looked really great! I found one way around that problem of having the picture flip on its side was to select "square" when I took the picture with my iphone. Is that an option for you? Cowboy probably can give you some tips on posting pictures.

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe. I totally forgot to check in yesterday. Our flight was uneventful which was great. Congrats Techie on 5K days. Wow that is amazing. Mul, your tree looks great! QW. So excited to hear from you and happy that your 10 days in Mexico was successful. Ginger, Cyrus the cat is definitely our mascot. Hi Cowboy, Jude, Dill. Hope everyone has a good day. Making peanut brittle today with my grand daughter. 24 more please and thank you. It’s 27 degrees here. Definitely not Florida weather!!

[abcowboy]

It's a great looking tree any way you look at it [MENTION=24679]Mulburry[/MENTION]! Those sideways pictures happen to me as well if I'm posting them from my phone. I always have to remember to rotate my phone clockwise sideways instead of the phone being up and down, then the pics seem to load properly.

Edit to ad: Glad you made it safely [MENTION=24196]Rava[/MENTION]! Do you make your peanut brittle the old fashioned cookstove way, or the microwave style? I haven't made peanut brittle for years.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Rava, glad you're there safe and sound! Enjoy your candy making with GD. I love those times with the littles and remember those times fondly with my grandma.

Mul, your tree is beautiful! You must not have cats. Lol

Waves to all my pals here in the Cafe. CCC is refusing to get out of bed because it's raining. He's such a deeva!

I'll take another day, rain and all!

[abcowboy]

Figured I'd best get some decorations up, inside & out, and get the place into a festive spirit

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Mul, your tree is beautiful! You must not have cats. Lol

Nope. But when I was young we had a dog and two cats at one point, and large real tree every year, and that was an adventure... especially when my dad would put and light real candles on the tree.

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning cafe! I'm in for another 24 hours of freedom!

[Rava]

Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Good morning Cafe. Cowboy the peanut brittle was microwave. Not sure I would do that again. Burned the first batch and then did better. Will try the stovetop kind next time. GD helped but we had to be careful as it was super hot. She is 17 so not a baby. LOL. Cowboy, where are those pictures from? Looks beautiful. Is that your house. Cyrus looks comfy as always…. We have our fireplace on TV with a plug in heater next to it. We can hear a crackling fake fire with heat from heater! Lol. Hope everyone is having a good Christmas week. It’s coming quickly! We just give money so I don't feel stressed about all the gift giving. Wishing everyone a great and sober day. 24 more please.

5:18am in Alberta, 24 more please, and thanks...

No, those are just internet pics [MENTION=24196]Rava[/MENTION], I could only wish it was our house lol. It know all to well how easy it is to burn microwave peanut brittle, I've wasted more than a few batches myself.

Can't remember the last time I stepped foot in a liquor store, and yesterday I was in 4 of them lol. Bubba wanted to get the neighbors across the street a Bailey's gift pack for Christmas so I went looking. Couldn't find anything so just ended up buying a bottle of Bailey's. Not much has changed in the stores except the prices, I definitely couldn't afford to drink even if I could lol.
