Christmas 2021

 

I am sorry I haven't posted for so long. This December has been busy! But I wanted to write about Christmas.

It was just Lizzie, Lulu, and me, but we had a nice quiet time, rainy, opening gifts, having good food (first time I have not cooked for Christmas at home, because of my cataract surgery on the 21st.

On Christmas Eve, we kept the tradition to eat fettuccini, cooked by Lizzie, very yummy! On Christmas Day, we opened our gifts and were very happy with everything. Lulu liked her gifts too!

Thanks to Santa Sandy and Santa Lizzie for all the gifts!!!

She loves to read

Our Christmas dinner was salmon with rice and vegetables. It was good! We also had Cava. Only thing we missed was dessert!  Later at night we drove around to see the lights,very nice.
Our house

This one was very nice


How to go from Halloween to Christmas, made me laugh


Wishing everybody a nice and healthy 2022!!!

November Recap

 Again, I didn't post much in November, even though there were several things happening. I think in the coming days I will expand on some of these stories.

November 4 - I got my Moderna booster, and I had a some after-effects. My arm got very red and swollen, I got tired easily, my joints ached, I was fatigued, didn't feel like eating much, I slept a lot, general malaise. I felt better by the 9th.

November 15 - Went to Kaiser to have my eyes measured for my upcoming cataract surgery. Started doing some walking in the Gazelle.

November 19 - Lizzie's 50th Birthday. We went to The Summit for dinner. At night, Sandy surprised Lizzie by showing up at 10:30PM  (I partnered with her to make it a surprise :)

  

November 21 - They went to a movie, and afterward the 3 of us went to Seal Beach for a beautiful sunset. Had dinner at El Ranchito.



November 22 - In'n'Out and take Sandy to the airport. We all had a lovely visit!

November 25 - Thanksgiving. Lizzie and I made a very nice paella, and had some embutidos appetizers first, and of course, Cava.

November 30 - To the dentist. Still too stressed out to write about it.


During the month we went to eat at several places: Amor y Tacos, The Habit, La casa del cocinero, The Summit, Reventacos, El Ranchito, In'n'Out, Raising Caner, etc.
