Taking a short break to put my feet up so thought I would check in.  Our youngest son showed up about noon so he took me to the store to get the last few things I needed.  I bought most of the stuff the other day but wanted to wait until today so the bread and produce would be fresh.  The bakery made me a couple of 2 ft. long loaves of french bread for my big subs.  The Lil&#39;s Smokies are in the crockpot, the chili is made, bacon for the baked potato bar has been fried, all the veggies chopped, the batter made for the fried dill pickles and also the batter for the fried ravioli, devilled eggs were made yesterday, so that is about it until time to make the sandwiches and fry the appetizers.  I am also making some mini pizza&#39;s out of biscuit dough because I don&#39;t think Scotty will eat most of what I have prepared.  Jackie, I won&#39;t be doing a big dinner tomorrow - we are doing it tonight as the whole family will be here and tomorrow it will be just Greg and I and we will have leftovers.  Glad that Luc is gaining - how wonderful that you get to share his first Christmas with him.<br />Well, better get back to work - may this be the best Christmas for all of you.<br />
