Wednesday Night Chill/Cooking

Hello people. This Wednesday night I am getting ready to cook my thanksgiving dinner. I got my music playlist ready, my drinks ready, and ready to get my cook on. It is a relaxing night so far and hanging with my kids. They are so ready for tomorrow and cannot wait to eat. I am also thinking of some new ideas for games to play with my family. My dinner is not that big I am making turkey, ham, dressing, sweet potatoes, greens, macaroni, apple pies, fruit salad, sugar cookies (the kids are making these), a couple cakes haven’t decide on what kind yet. What is on your menu? What is your favorite dish to cook or eat? Well thanks for reading, about to get to it have a few things to get done. Please feel free to like, comment, or share. Thanks! #WednesdayNight

Holiday Season

Holiday Season!

It is the holidays! Are you excited about it or not? I am and its very unusual for me because I am not always in a good mood around the holidays, no holiday spirit. For some reason despite what is going on in this world at this moment I feel joyful. I am ready to start decorating, cook, eat, spend time with family and friends, play fun games, and do holiday arts and crafts. Also, I am so ready to go Christmas shopping, I have so many great gift ideas for those close to me. I am ready to get the shopping done and out the way. What are your favorite things to do during the holiday season? The first for me is spending time with family, being around the ones you love and receiving love is the best feeling ever just to be around each other. Another thing for me is eating lol of course and this year I have been thinking about making new desserts. Any ideas? Any good recipes I should try? Pies been on my mind lately but do not know where to start, hopefully I figure it out soon. Help please! I am looking forward to having a great time. No negativity for me this holiday season. I want my kids, family, friends, and myself to be happy and enjoy ourselves. Hope you have a blessed and safe and healthy holiday this year filled with happiness, joy, and love. Thank you for reading.

Friday Night Thoughts!

Friday!!

There is so much going on in the world right now. I just want to unplug, go ghost. Three days still no president like what is going on, Well guess we just must wait on that and that freaking suck. That is one thing, another thing on my mind is for the last couple days I have been seeing these crazy videos on the internet. From police shootings, racism going no, bullying, family fights, some extreme videos I have seen, and it is sad. Then of course this pandemic, not to mention all the violence surrounding these young rappers is very scary. R.I.P to the rapper who lost his life today. I want to send prayers for those have lost loved ones, I pray for healing of this world. I pray the world become safer and we have the right people standing beside us. I feel like when will all the bad end. I know this post is not really what people will want to hear/ read, it is just my thoughts at the moment and can’t help but to write about it that’s how I express myself, and I also know I am not the only person worried (Hope Not). Wishing love, peace, happiness, strength and guidance, praying for things to work out for the better. My mind is wondering with all types of thoughts and feelings I will continue to pray and have faith and hope you do the same. Stay prayed up people and try to wake up every morning with a good and happy outlook on life. Again, just my thoughts thank you for reading.

Kids and Crafts!

Happy Thursday!

Do you have kids that are glued to their screens? I have two kids who love TV and Computer games, and I am always coming up with ideas to lessen screen time. That is where arts and crafts come in, my mom would tell me sit them down with crayons and paper, did not try for a while but once I did, we took off from there. when I first thought about it, I thought they will not like it and that it will be hard to approach them with it, started with coloring/drawing, then painting and more. Years later I have added other art activities and crafts and it works. Everyday they take a step back from screen time to do crafts and sometimes and could be 30 min to 2 hours that they are crafting and enjoying their selves. I think that kids making time for art and crafts is great it is a time that they can express there self and open their imagination and that is what I love. My two kids be so excited about what they have created that it gives me joy. It is fun during the holidays, making ornaments and homemade gifts for the family.  So for parents out their who have not tried or thought about trying art or crafts it is good activities for kids to do especially if you want to limit their time on the computer or watching tv  I  think you should try it.

 I am also trying to get my kids to express their self by writing and also creating short stories, I am a writer and it helps me I like to share my ideas with people because it might be able to help them. Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy.
