It was raining this morning so we stayed inside. Paul wired up another Amazon Echo (we have three now) and Sue puttered doing chores, After lunch Sue did the treadmill.
We watched “My Christmas Love” from Hallmark Christmas Movie. Summary: A hopeless romantic who can’t ever seem to give a guy a real chance begins receiving each of the “12 Days of Christmas” as gifts anonymously at her door. As she tries to figure out who is sending the gifts, she begins to believe that the mystery suitor could finally live up to her expectations.
Remember the Twelve Days Of Christmas
We then watched “My Christmas Dream”. Summary: Christina, the manager of McDougal’s flagship department store, is determined to land the manager position for their new Paris location. She sets out to impress Victoria, the store’s owner, by creating the best holiday display in McDougal’s history. Fresh out of inspiration despite assuring Victoria otherwise, Christina turns to a recently-fired store employee who also happens to be a talented artist and single dad to his young son.
We then went to Old Ranch for some Happy Hour before going to Kobe for dinner. We sat with the Burns the Catheys, the Sanders, and others who popped in and out. It’s wonderful to have such good friends that we can visit and share with.
Did we say Kobe? It was cool outside and Sue’s hands were freezing… Paul to the rescue… Oh how Paul suffers to make Sue Happy… He had…HAD… to order hot sake!
Japanese Hand Warmer…. Actually Hot Sake
We know the sushi chef’s pretty well and they always make a little something special for Paul. This was salmon wrapped around scallops with a jalapeno topping. Nummy Nummy!
A gift from our chef… Beautiful
Paul had to dine on octopus! It is delicious!
Love the octopus… This was cooked perfectly!
We watched another Christmas movie from Hallmark entitled “My Christmas Dream”. We are just simply romantics… Love the Hallmark Channel! It’s nice to have quality TV available!
