Express Yourself: December 1-5, 2014


The Express Yourself Weekly Meme is hosted Bouquet Of Books and Entertaining Interests.  This week's topic is: What holiday themed show/movie/book are you most looking forward to?  Don't celebrate the Dec. holiday - then name something you are watching/reading this month.

This holiday season I am most looking forward to The Nutcracker.  I usually watch it in some form every year but this year I am taking Cat to see the Victoria Ballet Company perform it live.

Cat is super excited as she loves live shows and I am too.

What are you looking forward to watching or reading this December?

This is a blog hop, feel free to join in below:

    Have fun!

    We have a vast collection of Christmas films that we work through each year in the run up to Christmas; yesterday's viewing included the 1994 version of Miracle on 34th Street.

    As for books, it's not Christmas until I've read A Christmas Carol and Tolkien's Letters From Father Christmas. I've read both this week so I'm all set for Christmas now. ;-)

Making Mac and Cheese

Image
One of my favorite vegetables is butternut squash so when Chatelaine  posted this yummy looking recipe  for mac and cheese brimming with squash I immediately pinned it to make at a later time.  Now, before Pinterest  I am willing to admit, recipes got saved in my e-mail, but they never got made.  They just got lost in the shuffle; now they get neatly organized and displayed where I can go through them on a regular basis.  More importantly than that I can try them.   This recipe worked out well for me, I thought the cheese and squash tasted great together, the kids however did not agree.  They like their squash on the side, where they can control how much they ingest.  Next time I will definitely use less breadcrumbs though.

Spooktacular Giveaway Hop

When I was much younger than I am now, I loved nothing more that a good "spooky" story.  I spent many nights laying up in bed reading books that were designed to make your skin crawl and leave you with goose bumps. My personal favourite author for Young Adult Thrillers was and probably still is Christopher Pike.  Twenty years after reading his books some of them still stand out in my mind in perfect clarity.  The top one would be Remember Me. Something about Shari's story struck a chord with me that has echoed through the last twenty years, as any good book should I suppose. Sadly when I was a teenager I didn't hold on to as many books as I do now so I spend a lot of time hunting to replace the ones I really wish I had kept. (Sweet Valley High anyone?) I am giving away a $15 Amazon gift card in the hopes that you can use it to buy a book to be loved as much as I loved this one. a Rafflecopter giveaway This post is part of The Spooktacular Giveaw...
