sandycombsI hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas yesterday! Ours was pretty great.
My kiddo and her housemates came over, as did my sister and her husband. Brother-in-law was doing really well, considering how horrid last week was for him. Everyone got a fun present and we all had a nice meal together. I did roast pork loin, hash brown casserole, broccoli with cheese sauce, Waldorf salad, dinner rolls, pecan pie, and chocolate pecan fudge pie.
I was extra thankful for my brother-in-law and one of Kiddo's housemates. During the preparation of our meal, while checking on the oven, I managed to lay my hand on a hot burner. Fortunately, dinner was mostly prepared. Brother-in-law was kind enough to slice the roast while I doctored my hand. Later, I enlisted my sister to serve dessert, only to find out she had never sliced a pie in her entire life! How does someone make it to 54 years old without slicing at least one pie? Anyway, Housemate kindly came to the rescue. Aren't families wonderful? I'm a very lucky lady to have mine.
The stripes on each finger are the coils on the burner. As you can see, my pinkie touched the gap between. Ouch!
