30 Photo Challenge - Day 3- Favorite Place to Be

One of my favorite places to be is Disney World especially Epcot World Showcase where they have the different countries each with their own restaurant featuring that country's food. This is a photo of Epcot Morocco (that is based on 3 cities) where the real Morocco paid for it to be built so it would be done right!

30 Photo Challenge - Day 1 & 2

Day 1 is a picture of yourself & Day 2 is what I wore today so I decided to combine the days together. Today I had to work so here is my typical work uniform. I normally don't wear yellow pants but I found them for $10 at Old Navy since our color are blue & yellow. I'm really dedicated aren't I lol !

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 25 - Merry Chrismas

Merry Christmas! 

 

Christmas morning I love watching this on the TV!

Yule Log

 

Also let us never forget the real reason for celebrating Christmas!

Got this mug at Cracker Barrel a few years ago

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 24 - Christmas Eve

For the past couple of years the picture of Christmas Eve to me is when  I go over to my in laws house for the Italian feast of the 7 fishes.  Which is eating only fish & eating 7 kinds.  I don't eat all of them (ie shrimp) but what I did eat was good!

This is Baccala Salad (salted cod) that Tom always makes every year

Mussels (white & red)

Scallops

Calamari & shrimp

Shrimp Scampi

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 23

Its Christmas Eve Eve & by now I believe I got all the cards I'm going to get for Christmas. 

So thanks to everyone who sent me one because I got quite the collection!

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 22

Now that winter is officially here I made the summer to winter clothing switch & unpacked my warm cozy winter/ Christmas pajamas, which helps put me in the Christmas mood.  I love warm cozy cute pajamas (both of these are from Target, which is a good place to go to get cute ones ! ) 

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 21 - Toy soilder

Took this cute Christmas decoration in the lobby of the physical rehab place I was visiting my Grandma in.

Christmas Pic Challenge - Days 19 & 20

Day 19 - Fragile

 

 

As soon as we see this we are reminded of the iconic Christmas movie A Christmas Story which has their annual 24 hr movie marathon that come on TBS.  This is my mom's lamp that she has in her house.  It lights up 3 ways, leg only, lamp only & both.

 

 

 

 

Day 20 - 5 days left

 

With Christmas only 5 days away which list are you on?  LOL

 

 



Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 18 - Christmas Wrapping

 

 

Christmas Pic Challenge - Days 15, 16, & 17

I realized today that I forgot to post yesterday's picture & also Saturdays lol   So here are the past 3 days all rolled up in one blog post.

 

 

 

 

Day 15 - Christmas Decorations

 

 

I was over a friends house for dinner who loves to decorate for Christmas so here are a few pictures I took of his decorations!

The theme of the tree was white decorations

 

This is an up close shot of one of the decorations on that tree, I remember those bubble lights from years ago!

 

Ceramic Tree which reminds me of my mom's ceramic tree she has except hers is orange

 

 

 

Day 16

 

I went to see Robert Irvine live at Bergen Pac last night with my friend & this was on the ceiling of the theater which I thought was neat.

 

 

Day 17 - Santa

 

I was shopping at the Riverside Square Mall tonight (returning something at Barnes & Noble, otherwise I can't really afford any of those stores lol lol ).  I liked how their picture with Santa display was different & they made it look like Santa's living room!

 

 

 

 

 



Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 14

Saw this inflatable Christmas lawn decoration  in my neighborhood & reminded me of my childhood because I used to have one of these!

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 13 - Cat toy

Just as a magnet is attracted to steel so is my cat Sebastian with garland & tinsel until my mom bought him a Christmas tinsel cat toy.  Now he can satisfy his garland chewing cravings with this toy which is great except when he swallowed a red tinsel strand. Now we are waiting for it to come out lol

 

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 12 - Nativity

I read this blog post about the 42 worst nativity sets and it made me notice the nativity sets more that people put out.  So far I haven't seen a tacky nativity set.  This one I would pass all the time as I'm driving on Lafayette Ave in Cliffside Park when I"m going to my mom's house.  It's not really tacky to me just different & never seen it silhouetted like that before

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 11

Lite Brite Christmas

 

This is my childhood lite Brite that still works & I actually still had patterns to it which includes this Christmas pattern.

 

 

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 10

 

Found this limited edition holiday candle from air wick today at Walmart for only $5.88. 

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 9

It's not Christmas time to me until I watch these movies:

 

 

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 8 - NYC

Yesterday I went to New York City to see the Christmas show at Radio City Music Hall with the Rockettes for the first time.   This year is their 85th anniversary!  Here a few highlights of the city (which is a great place to visit during Christmas time)  flash photography wasn't allowed during the show so I don't have any of that!

These giant ornaments were right across from Radio City

The Tree at Rockefeller Center



The flags waving



This was a display made up of Swarovski Crystals



The tree from far away



Radio City

The Chandelier inside of Radio City

 This mural was atop of the stairs, it reminds me of Moses for some reason.  Also love the art deco chandelier

 

 

There was even dueling organs before the show started

Waiting for the show to begin, I was in row T

 

Christmas Pic Challenge- Day 7 - Food

This time of year there is plenty of Christmas themed food.. Here a few that are my favorites:


We usually have this for dessert on Christmas night.  Tom & my brother always joke that it looks like the cake has boobs instead of mittens....men  lol



Peeps - not just an Easter thing anymore:

Trees & Snowman

This is a new flavor for this year - Sugar Cookie

Reese's Cups - which tops the favorite list

 

These cookies taste great & are sold at Christmas Tree Shops

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 6 Christmas Rocks

I saw this house while driving today & thought it was cool. 

Although I bet the home owner's electric bell doesn't rock lol

Christmas Pic Challenge - Day 5

This time of the year you find everything Christmas related including tissue boxes (from Target). 

At first I wasn't going to buy them at Target but then I gave in lol
