Happy Monday, I just realized I listed yesterday as the 23rd 🤦🏼♀️ I hope you had a great weekend!! I am going to do a Livestream this afternoon, everyone might be busy but I figured I would at least jump on for a little while for anyone that wants to chat before Christmas!
How are you feeling about this week? Feeling prepared yet? What is your non-negotiable for this week?
It's okay if you don't plan to be perfect, just set a goal for some kind to help keep you from spiraling or feeling terrible. And it's also okay if you NEED to be extra strict. I am excited for some steak and lobster on Christmas but I am keeping with my plan to keep things super strict. For a lot of people, me inclined, one bite of junk (even on a holiday) lights up that addict part of my brain and can turn into days/weeks of struggles. So whichever one of those you fall into, just know you aren't alone. I hope you have an amazing week and a Merry Christmas. 🎄
So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.
Nathaniel has perfected what he calls "Medium Rare" Pepperoni chips. For a more crispy texture leave them in for one minute..but he thinks 55 seconds is the perfect chewy/crunchy texture.
Well total miscommunication with the pig for lunch today. 😂 We thought we ordered the whole pig but maybe because we ordered so much other food or because there was only 3 of us they brought us one PORTION of pig and not the whole one. It was probably all the food we needed because we also had blood sausage, fried bacon, octopus, and a bunch of cheeses...but I was bummed I didn't get a picture with one. 😂😂 I took this before from someone else's table thinking ours was on the way still. They cut the pig with a plate to show you how tender it is. The skin was absolutely incredible. They only season it with salt and then pour over some of the broth it's cooked in on your plate. Such an incredible meal.
We are driving home this morning to have a meaty Christmas Eve lunch before going to the Christmas Eve Service. After that I am excited for a few slow days at home celebrating Christmas with the family. I hope you are having a peaceful week and a wonderful Christmas. I am so thankful for each and every one of you and we are so grateful you are a part of this community. 2024 has been an incredible year and I CANNOT wait to see all the amazing things you will achieve in 2025! Blessings to each and every one of you!
