This weekend in pictures~**

Hope everyone in the US enjoy the Turkey Feast this past Thursday. I feel like I can eat more turkey but most likely this is going to be it for this year. Ham will be on the menu on Christmas so I just have to wait for another 12 months!! My husband, our little girl and I went to my in-laws for the feast. It was a very small gathering this year as other family members were out of town for work and travel but all in all it was still a very good day. I made my famous Cranberry Bar from scratch and brought it over to add to the table. This bar has become my family favourite in the past few years now, I just love the tart and sweet combination of this dessert.

Black Friday shopping was not very exciting. I didn't have a desire to get up so early to shop. As much as I LOVE good deals, the idea of getting in line at 3AM does not sound appeaing to me. It doesn't matter how low the prices can be, I pass. My husband and I didn't get to the mall until about 11:30, it was a very late start and most items were long gone. My husband and I started Christmas shopping for a few family members, we were determined to get this done by mid December this year. I stopped by F21 and Charlotte Russe and snagged a few items. As a matter, I didn't see a lot of "good" deals at F21 at all. Everything was pretty much at the regular prices .

We have a small orange tree in the backyard. Last year those organes tasted like crap but they are much more flavorful this year. My little girl and I had fun picking some of our home grown organic oranges.

Sad but true, Thaksgiving is over and it is time to go back to work!! I can't tell you how much I enjoyed light traffic last week, it was like a dream. Tomorrow it will be a nightmare..again (sigh~)
