Countdown to Christmas and New Year's Day

 Here we go y'all. Countdown to Christmas. Each week we will look at what we can be doing to prepare our homes for Christmas then New Year's Day. Yeah! We are going to cover both. We are going to cover everything just like Thanksgiving.

Cleaning and Extra Preparations

One week out from Christmas here's what we can do. Time to tackle the guest rooms if you will be having guests. And don't forget your living room, kitchen, and public bathroom. 

Meal Planning and Christmas Eve

Now is the time to decide what you will do for Christmas Eve. Will you cook a full meal or will you do what most people will? Order out because you are going to be busy on Christmas day. If eating a catered meal is your plan, great. I'm sure if you order now you could get a great deal. Don't forget coupons.

Of course, you could take this weekend to meal prep. Yep! Through planning ahead you could get a lot of your cooking done. If you're in charge of side dishes and a place to stay while Grandma cooks and everyone else does their specialty, then this is the weekend to make your specialty and freeze it. Either make it up to the point of baking. Or you could set yourself up by putting together the items you need. For example: if Green Bean Casserole is your specialty, place everything you need in a basket together. This way when you go to make your famous casserole, you have everything at hand. No scrambling for anything. 

Now let's talk about Christmas Morning. How about a pancake bar? Have your spouse or other relatives that's great at flipping pancakes on the griddle. Have everything they need at hand so they can whip up a damn good pancake. This is something you could plan ahead for. 

Here's a link for some ideas. Link: https://www.homestoriesatoz.com/recipes/23-christmas-brunch-recipe-ideas.html

UN Legitimate and Two Illegitimate Speakers

This was a freakshow of a week…. I actually did a whole layout here and accidentally deleted it. OMG. I realize this week was crazy, but holy shit! This is what it did. So here’s a quick recap before I have a completely psychotic break.  Trump entered the UN building with the same level of disaster he entered the world with. The safety feature that will prevent someone carrying a ‘nasty surprise’ from entering the top level of the escalator. That still leaves the elevators. The teleprompter stopped working. That was it, there’s a conspiracy. He did what any brain-dead American would do: whine and bitch. His almost hour-long tirade ended by telling other nations they will go to hell. I guess there will be a family reunion.  Netanyahu went to speak, and it’s a good thing that there were influencers paid to be there; otherwise, why on earth would anybody subject themselves to Netanyahu’s incoherent nonsense after Trump is beyond me. Netenhahu finished last week by threatening Chi...

Who is Ahmed al-Sharaa?

  Ahmed was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Wait! What was that???? Born in Saudi Arabia…. How the hell did he get to be president of Syria? A country that he isn’t even a citizen of? That is as insane as Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov announcing he is going to be the president of America. Actually, I would welcome that. Since he is obviously smarter than any American Political puppet. At least we would be able to have our Christian values protected. There wouldn’t be an abortion clinic on every city block. And the sexualization of children would come to a dead stop. Veterans would be better cared for under Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. However, that will never happen, but I think you get how insane that is. I found that you have to be a natural-born citizen of Syria to be president of Syria.  Ahmed al-Sharaa was a member of Al Qaeda. You remember the pack of terrorists who attacked us on 9/11/. My question is, why is Al-Qaeda allowed to exist if they were involved in 9/11? ...

America: How Does She Change?

The last few days, I have seen numerous videos regarding the trafficking of humans getting worse than ever in this cesspool called America. This has got to stop. NOW! No more waiting.  September 5, 1985! The day when Johnny Gosch went missing. Nooren Gosch has done multiple interviews about what her family went through after Johnny Gosch went missing. Mrs. Gosch was told Johnny would come home after he calmed down. They let her know he was ‘a runaway”. Sound familiar? The FBI was of NO help. So, the idea that the FBI 'recovered’ children in Florida is a joke. How did they come in and find these children out of the blue? Seriously! Approximately 73 million children since 2023. Why aren't these numbers updated?  I just find it strange that Trump's attempts to cover up his involvement with Epstein AND Maxwell, BPFs to the super elite, was a disaster, now the FBI find over 60 children in Florida, home of Mar Lago, are instantly found. Then there were children rescued in Louisia...
