Day 75

Fun day.

Today, some out-of-state came for a visit to spend the night. And we went to one of Oakbrook's expensive classy restaurants called Ditka's. They're son is the general manager so he came by to chat every few minutes.

I also did some cleaning in preparation for the visit. Also had some lunch from TGI Fridays but got stuck in traffic. You know, Christmas shopping. But lunch was great. I love TGI Fridays.

And tomorrow, I'm going to find a wreath because I still need one to display and that will conclude the decorating of the house. I got the tree with lights, garlands, and ornaments, and a tree skirt, some decorations around the house, and the stockings hanging by the chimney with care (I always say that when talking about Christmas stockings). And sometime next week, I have to go out to get ingredients for a pound cake, hopefully if the grocery store won't be too crowded, and then regretting to make it. I hate baking, but my cookies or cakes usually come out all right. I'm not a baker for real, but I have baked cookies once (I'll explain those another time) and I made two cakes. I don't have a passion for baking, but my sister-in-law is a baker. Her things are really good.
