xmas that is. we’re having our dinner here on the 24th and opening z’s presents from the family on the same night.
the morning of xmas will be presents from mommy and daddy (he bought TWO for her, good for him!) and i’m planning a sesame street waffle and bacon breakfast for us. guess i need to buy some bacon.
ugh, i have no fridge space, whatsoever…
so, this is my to do list for the next 44 hours, please only read after a stresstab and/or alcoholic beverage:
- thaw turkey (working on it – it’ll take about 48 hours)
- clean and stuff turkey, then of course roast it and unstuff it
- but first, make stuffing, for stuffing the turkey with!
- bake: peanut butter cookies and brownies and make rice krispie bars
- mix jugs of vodka, eggnog and kalhua to make egg nog white russian type drinks
- cut up veggies, meat and cheese for appys
- make dip for appys
- prep veggies for steaming and or mashing
- bake yams for candying
- make ambrosia (aka five cup salad)
- defrost rolls
- two loads of laundry? (ya, right)
- wash dishes
- make butter chicken for dinner tomorrow night
- finish stargirl’s present
- make z’s stocking
- mop floors
- list for thank you cards (no memory anymore, i swear)
- dust
- shower, shave, tweeze and pedicure in red
- straighten hair except for like, four curlers which will stay in overnight, giving some sort of 60’s esque mod hair thing going on
- charge camera battery and remove current pics and vids from it
- there’s gotta be more, i swear it
- serve dinner at 8pm, have a predominantly mess-free kitchen post-meal and open millions of presents (for z)!
so you can see why it’s so irresponsible that i sat here tonight after z went to bed at 9:30, watching notting hill and reading tabloids, right? stupid PMS making me watch romantic comedies!
anyone wanna plan my next 44 hours for me? seriously, though, i’m excited, really!
