Sweet Tea… in Italia!

Italy, Amazing Food, Love and Wine Y'all!

It’s freezing here.. and has been raining… so I have not been doing much of anything…
Wednesday Morning was the first dry morning and everything was frosted over…  I pulled out of our driveway with the corvette and I slid out of there sideways…  I was like whoa baby..
I love that car…

At the beginning of this month I would have told you that it slows down at the office, the closer it gets to Christmas…
well this year has been the total opposite.. so I’ve been busy as crap..
plus I’m trying to get all my EHR crap ready to report to the almighty CMS people…

Plus read a 67 page Medicare manual on changes for the 2014 insurance period… yay…

can you tell I’m stoked?  totally not…

and in other headlines in my life.. Tomorrow I am giving a little speech for a health fair at a local church… I was all sure! then I started having nightmares about being in front of all these people.. in fact.. I was on the stage, in the dream, and I couldn’t see the audience but it was HUGE and the lights were shining on me and……  all that came out was…. “uhhhhhhhh….. immmmmmmm”  it was bad….
but, I got nice little talking points all set up… I got this crap.. haha

Monday night I went out to the local beer parlor that has been around since the 1900s… haha… 

Bubba has the best hot dogs in town… hands down.. and I’m not even a hot dog kinda girl…
I’m more of a bratwurst girl..

Anyways.. they are having huge Christmas eve party there… we are going to be there…

Tuesday Night.. I made lobster tail for the first time… and I think it came out Awesome..  let me explain how I cam across the lobster.. I was shopping.. and I complained about the fact that there was not enough fish raised in the USA… enough that we now have all kinds of fish that says product of U.S.A now 🙂   and Lobster tail.. which they put on sale.. buy one get one free… so I figured I wouldn’t be too sad if I messed up $8.99

So, I cut open the shell with some scissors, poured on some e.v.olio, used some old bay and lemon pepper…. and then  I put them in the broiler for 10-15 minutes while I was sautĂ©ing the Broccoli…
and this is what I got.. It was awesome.. I was very excited… and I’m going to make this again..
Maybe on the grill the next time..

Wednesday Night.. I was supposed to go to a ranch about an hour away with my friend who rides cutting horses.. and we were going to sort cows…
but, her horse got bit by a tick and his eye swelled up and closed.. and it was a bad situation because that particular horse had, had a cornea transplant so.. it was a big deal… found out the poor fella had a tick in his eye… so before I found all that out.. I got Maggie out of the pasture.. cleaned her up.. bribed her with some treats and then put her on the trailer and was getting fuel in the truck when she called to tell me her horses eye was swollen….  the vet came out and found the tick…
So, we gave hay to the cows, horses and the mares out back… and while I was driving across the pasture I looked up to see the most beautiful sky… so I stopped and took a picture of it..

Thursday night, had a long day at work.. and we went to have supper at a restaurant where my friend sings most thursday nights….
and Today we got a new baby 🙂

I’m calling him Charlie…. he’s a goofy little fella.. like charlie brown…(hence the name) and I have to bottle feed him… I love baby cows…

I’m a great mama cow.. ..

Well that is about all around here…

12 more days until Christmas…
