We hosted a few Bills friends last night since we have the Peacock Network. Lots of moaning and groaning and a few choice words throughout the second half. It's just the scar tissue that forms after a lifetime of losing in bizarre and painful ways. Wide right is still my worst ever sports experience, followed closely by 13 seconds. You know they're bad losses when they have names (looking at you Browns fans...the drive, the fumble). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peacock only cost me 6 dollars a month and you can cancel after football season. I hate rooting for the cowboys but I guess I must , but even if Miami wins they play Baltimore next week.

I hate rooting for the Cowboys also, but I hate rooting for the Dolphins more. One more loss by the Dolphins and the Bills can still win the division. Ideal scenario...Dolphins lose to the Boys and then beat the Ravens. Ravens also lose to the 49ers and the Steelers (very possible). Chiefs lose one more game somewhere...maybe the Bengals or maybe a division game vs Raiders or at LA. Bills win out and end up with the 1 seed. Maybe not likely, but possible. A Bills fan can dream...right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sea Dog Posted December 24, 2023 #111439 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Merry Christmas Eve everyone. I may be sporadic in keeping up with this thread today and tomorrow as we have lots of activities. Today I’m busy making my Christmas morning egg, hash browns, meat and cheese casserole for breakfast. Later I will make a Christmas appetizer for Linda’s cousin get together. I’m making a green tortilla, cream cheese, cranberry and pecan pinwheels. Hopefully it will turn out good. Taking a break and watching the film “The man who came to dinner” from 1934. Decent Christmas movie. 19 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my friends has been cooking/preparing the feast for days. She is serving shrimp, calamari, fish sauce, clams, baccala (sp?), flounder and oysters. Another friend is cutting down the tradition and having shrimp and prime rib. With my Irish German background, we did not have the tradition of fish on Christmas Eve, but we have celebrated the Eve with Italian friends and have enjoyed the feast! We all celebrate in different ways. The important thing is being with family and friends at this time of year! Cheers! MJ 🤶 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted December 24, 2023 #111449 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Last night I finished wrapping. Today I made my Nana's recipe for stuffing. Next up is homemade fudge (one batch w/mini marshmallows and another batch with walnuts), then on to making tollhouse chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter cookies and maybe oatmeal if I have time. This evening for dinner we are continuing with the family tradition of baby back ribs (have been in the smoker on the patio since earlier this morning) and will pick up pizza from our favorite parlor before they close at 7 pm. Tomorrow we go to my Brother's for Christmas day and a turkey dinner. I cheated and bought a french apple pie from local bakery instead of making myself but I have enough other cooking and baking going on this weekend. I wish Everyone a Very Merry Christmas filled with peace and joy💖 14 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
