Hope you enjoyed a terrific weekend.

Mine was terrific in that it was uneventful and totally chill.  Both the weather and relaxed.

Presenting Top of the Morning this November 18, 2024.  A super interesting + delicious line-up I found and collected to share today.

As Thanksgiving gets closer and closer - as in next week - I thought it Apropos to share the recipes in today's post in case you want to mix it up just a little bit this year.  I'm especially intrigued by the Cabernet Cranberry Sauce recipe!  What's not to love and give it a spin?

BEGINNING WITH:

STACY'S WORLD
Indeed - Stacy, Carol and I had a memorable lunch celebrating Carol's birthday at this outstanding local Mexican restaurant.  Who can believe we have such an upscale restaurant right here in our little ol' town that is absolutely blowing up with new homes and new neighbors moving in -- fast!
The food was mouthwatering greatness -  however, the laughter, conversation and love outshined the food.

And, yes, I too am a recipient of numerous pieces of Carol's talented, original watercolor artwork:
Birthday greetings, Easter hello, Thanksgiving greetings, Christmas Wishes and thank-you notes.
And, yes, all are framed or displayed, carefully positioned, around my home.
All bring beauty, love and joy.

Hat tip to ya, Carol, and thank you.

I don't know about you, but Stacy's find of the corn on the cob recipe cooked with the jalapenos and honey has my full attention!
Same, bacon wrapped chicken recipe via an old school family recipe!
Both -  Totally on my make it ASAP list!

Stacy never fails us with her innovative ideas and finds.
Thank ya, Stac!
Lucky us!

Did ya know that today is Mick Jagger's birthday?
According to Google -- he turns 81 today.  And he and the Rolling Stones are still touring!
Talk about a dude who just keeps moving and shaking and doing his deal!
Mick's not thinking about the number 81!
I like his birthday number thinking style!

AND!  It's also my birthday.
I always thought it kinda cool that Mick and I share the same birthdate.
Who do you share with your birthdate?

Birthday singing will roll in via calls from my family.
As they say, "It's a family tradition."  HA
My Grandpa and Grandma started it a very long time ago and it continues!
And believe me -- we all look forward to the calls on our day and hearing the Happy Birthday songs.
