Hi Everyone!
I hope you are all well fed, had fun today and there was lots of love in your homes.

Sweet Potato, String Beans, Ham and Mac n cheese.  |
Mr.M. Loves Ambrosia Salad so I told him how to make it.  |
|
He even made a few Deviled Eggs.  |
One night last week Mr. M. made waffles. Melted butter and hot syrup.  |
|
Then one night to my complete surprise, because he didn't ask for help. He went through my recipes and made sloppy joes and onions rings. All homemade. Sour cream on the side.  |
Can't get a burger in my town that comes close to Mr. M's. Cooked on the outside grill and done up right.  |
|
My Son and DIL always send something like this among other things.  |
Inside the boxes.  |
|
The apples are sweet and the pears just ripe.  |
This is the best Carmel corn I have ever eaten.  |
|
Shaped like Christmas ornament texture of candy corn with great flavor.  |
These are chocolate covered blueberries. OMG good.  |
A package from my Daughter and SIL got caught up in Portland and should be here tomorrow.

I'm glad you enjoyed your day, and we had a similar Christmas feast:
I provided corn and green peas, cranberry sauce, hot mustard, son arrived with ham, tricolor roast potatoes, ginger ale, eggnog, homemade cookies sent to me by his co worker.
I already had Turkish delight, chocolate hand dipped nut clusters (gift) peppermint bark (gift), Italian almond cakes (gift), fruitcake (gift). This is the result of having a birthday near Christmas, edible evidence!
Lovely day with son. I like the fruit gifts you received. And I thank your husband for taking such care of both of you.
Looks like you had a wonderful Christmas! -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
...food, between last night, this morning and tonight, I ate TOO much! ☃️ 🎄 ❄️ 🎅🏼
Merry Christmas Nicole. You certainly had some delicious looking food. And your husband is definitely a keeper doing all that cooking. I hope you had a fantastic holiday, and have a great T day too. hugs-Erika
Oh my, your hubby is making some things I wouldn't want to try to concoct! Kudos to him! He has been great and taking such good care of you.
Your Christmas looks like it was wonderful. I hope things go much smoother for you in 2024!! :)
Good evening, Your husband is doing an amazing job in the kitchen-I remember my Mom making ham that way too, I haven't see it made that way in a long time.
yummy goody boxes. Happy T wishes Kathy
Looks like a great day Nicole !
A very big YAY to your Mr. M!!!!
I had to google sloppy joes, hmmmmm, yum!
Love when people send stuff you eat and gone it is ... great taste an no sitting on side-boards etc! I do that, too (and am sad I give it away, like real Italian olive oil that is not cherished even!, Aw, well).
Have a great T-Day!
Wow, for someone who doesn't care to cook, Mr. M appears to be quite the gourmet chef!
Outdoor grilled burgers are out favorite too. Nothing beats that.
Maybe your husband will get to like cooking and carry on forever! Looks like he did a great job and even got creative.
Your husband is indeed making beautiful food! Maybe he will finally get to like it. I hope your last gift package arrives as expected.

That ham looks fabulous, compliments to the chef 😊. Wishing you peace, joy and happiness this Christmas time ❤️. Happy T Tuesday! Hugs, Jo x
Yesterday I cooked a Christmas dinner for Mom and me. I had a ham (9lbs, way too big) sweet potato casserole and a green bean casserole. Mom has had a cold and not doing well, but she ate a full plate of it. Yesterday afternoon, she seemed to improve a good bit though.
I am glad you had such good food.
OMG what a deal on that ham! Mr M is turning into a gourmet chef! Everything looks delicious. When I was a kid, one of my aunties used to make ambrosia salad on special occasions -- so sinfully good.
HE is making a stellar chef, isn't he. How kind and generous of him, especially since it's not his "thing". Your Christmas Day sounds like it was a joyous one. Happy T Day. I'll be joining you for coffee :)
Hapoy belated Christmas and happy Boxing Day. Your ham sounds decadent and was a steal. Your meal was amazing. Far better than my ramen noodles. Mr. M has turned into a real chef and not foul mouth like Gordon Ramsey! Your coffee looks perfect, too. Happy T day, dear Nicole. You are a real gem.
Woe, Nicole, your husband is fantastic, he really cooks well, and he has looked after you just great! Happy T Day, hugs, Valerie
I don't like to cook. Do you rent out your husband? The meals he made are impressive. Happy T Day
Your husband is amazing! I can see why you're so proud of him, just look at the undertaking he took to prepare such delicious meals. If you ask me, it looks like he might be enjoying this new task more than he's letting on. :)
I love making homemade caramel corn! It's absolutely the best I've ever had! Yum, now I want some but I'm not going to be making any, anytime soon so I'll just have to tough it out. :)
Enjoy what's left of this year and I hope 2024 bring you both good health and much happiness. xo
So glad to hear you had a wonderful and well-fed day filled with love! Mr. M.'s cooking skills and the $6.00 find for a 7.5lb ham are impressive. Even in a smaller gathering, good food and love make for a perfect holiday. Wishing you continued joy and delicious meals! Happy Boxing Day! Visit Melody Jacob blog.
I'm glad you had a lovely day. I'm impressed with Mr M's cooking and the gifts look great.
I love how your hubby has taken on the cooking. My hubby cooks and enjoys doing some things more than others, maybe your hubby will eventually have his favourites! Lovely to receive food gifts! Happy T Day, Chrisx
Wow! Nicole ~ your hubby is quite the chef ~ delicious looking food ~ glad you had a good Xmas ~ hugs,
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days
