GOOD MORNING friends. It’s the first FULL week of the new year! I can’t believe the holidays are over and we’re starting a brand new year. Pour yourself a cup of coffee and join me in getting this week underway.
OUTSIDE MY WINDOW & THE WEATHER OUTSIDE & WHAT I’M WEARING I know we generally put up the week here, but I’m putting up 2 because it’s kind of a deja vu forecast to last year just prior to #Snowmageddon2019 and our horrific power outage with the snow starting to creep in.
ON THE BREAKFAST PLATE Hot water and sliced apple
AS I LOOK AROUND THE HOUSE, WEEKLY TO DO LIST, HOUSE & CRAFT PROJECTS, APPOINTMENTS
- LAUNDRY, LIVING AREAS & KITCHEN… This is the week of the deep clean after de-constructing Christmas decorations. They are so beautiful while up, but seem to make such a mess when you put them away!
- YARD… nothing – it’s supposed to rain EVERY day this week!
- APPOINTMENTS & TO DO… MRI later today to determine the extent of the Meniscus tear and tendon damage to evaluate the next step in fixing my knee. Looking for paperwork to answer VA denial – AGAIN! Pedicure, errands…
- BLOG… a few recipe updates, a few trip updates from 2019…
- CRAFTS/PROJECTS… nothing this week, but hoping to begin the mixed media project and/or alcohol ink project next week.
WHAT IS ON THE DVR, I LIKE OR ON THE LIST TO WATCH/SOMETHING INTERESTING I WATCHED Winter shows are just starting back up, but I’m trying to finish up Hallmark Christmas movies; Christmas in Rome, Christmas in Montana, Our Christmas Love Song, Winter in Vail, Love on the Slopes, One Winter Proposal… We’ve also been watching Svengoolie old black and white SYFY movies for a few laughs.
I’M READING Fatal Accusation by Marie Force #15 in her Fatal Series
FAVORITE PHOTO FROM THE CAMERA We took a little road trip to see a few covered bridges we hadn’t seen before. This is the #Office covered bridge near Oakridge. They had it nicely decorated for Christmas.

Happy New Year, Tamy! Looks like you all are in for a lot of rain! Love the food photos (as always) and the one of the covered bridge, as well! Absolutely lovely! Would love to visit one someday! Have a blessed 2020! <3
Thank you! Happy New Year to you also!
Goodness you have a full week of rain, won’t you send some my way? You know how much I love a good storm hahah
I’ve switched from Hallmark movies, back to all my period drama movies and series.
Your menu plan and your pictures always look sooooo good. Yum!
Have a blessed week my friend!
I’ve moved on from Hallmark Christmas to Hallmark winter – HAHA 😀 Hope you’re having a great weekend.
I have been cleaning as I take down the Christmas décor. I hope to finish it this week.
I hope you had a great week. I’m going to finish cleaning this weekend. 😀
I’ve been in deep clean, clear out mode ever since I started putting away Christmas. Your food pictures always look so good. Hope you have a wonderful week and maybe get a break here and there from all that predicted rain.
I did have a break from the rain yesterday and even got a tiny bit of spray painting I needed to do on my new food backboard done! But, it has POURED since and is predicted to continue pouring until it turns to snow next week. 😀
Morning! I too have lots of Christmas Hallmark movies yet to watch. Lovely covered bridge, just like in the Hallmark movies!
Love the way you posted your menu for the week.
Have a great week
I think maybe that’s why I LOVE old churches, barns and covered bridges – too many Hallmark movies. Thank you I’m reverting back to my old menu – I just love the color 😀
I think I am finally all caught up on my Hallmark Christmas movies! Yummy food pics!! Have a great week!
Hope you had a good week too. Have a great weekend.
