Everything done. In fact, there are things we have we won't need. I have an extra $30+ from the budget that needs to go to food. I think I'll buy some cheeses and breads tonight, for leftover plans if nothing else.

My big issue right now is cleaning, so that's my day. My folks aren't dirty at all, but they're sloppy. Why stuff thing under the sofa in the den when there's a closet? We don't have an extra guests this year like usual, but if you don't do baseline tidying for the holidays, even if it's "just family", then when do you do it?

Change of plans. I didn't make the chicken croquettes and decided to freeze the couple of leftover cutlets for some other time.

Instead, I made a huge salad: lettuce, spinach, carrots, red cabbage, cucumbers, red onions, diced sharp, smoked cheddar chunks, pepper jack cheese, pieces of deli sliced roast beef and topped it with shredded mozzarella. On top of all that I added a scoop of tuna salad & a scoop of seafood salad, then poured a little honey mustard dressing over the entire thing. I also had one plain dinner roll. (It was so fresh, it didn't need butter or anything else on it.) I am sooooo stuffed!
