Resolved: Delayed to next week!
By suggestion of several readers, this week’s “Resolved” is hereby put off until next week. I agree that most of us probably have other things to do this week than debating online (I, personally, need to cook, cook, cook!). So we’ll just have an open forum today and put off the chosen subject until next Tuesday. Merry Christmas!
What are you pondering today?



OMG the Golden Fleet. Who but Trump? The USS Defiant. Adios, Maduro and maybe Cuba next. Lefties and other Democrats are weeping.......
My tasks today in advance of traveling to my son’s tomorrow are
Making lemon lavender almond bark
Making baked beans
Making marinated mozzarella balls
Making the beginnings of a cranberry frangipane tart (it just sounds so freaking delicious)
Tomorrow I’ll finish the tart, put together the cookie trays and somehow we’ll have to fit everything in the car because there are a lot of presents from and to 12 people.
I also need to hit Aldi to get their cinnamon rolls my son wants to have for Christmas breakfast.
