Nutcracker and the McRib

Gentle Friends, our Christmas week started with our annual attendance at last night's performance by the San Francisco Ballet of  "The Nutcracker."  We have been going to see performances of  The Nutcracker for quite a few years, it never gets old and is always the beautiful event we've really come to love. Here are some snaps I stole off the internet...

... pictures during the performance are Verboten!!  so I verbote...  but I found a YouTube of a bit of the SF performance, I hope you'll enjoy!!

The Dance of the Flowers is so lovely...

After the performance, I was feeling a bit peckish AND had found out earlier from doing a search online with the McRib Locator which McDonald's in SF had the McRib, so we headed further downtown to the only McDonald's that the McRib had been sited at... way down on 6th and Market Street.... it is a terrible neighbourhood, and we couldn't find parking so headed home.  I'm certainly not dodging bullets and crack dealers, even for a McRib!!!  The 6th Street Micky D's was the only place on the McRib locator that said they had them, so I was disappointed.  

We ended up just driving over to the McD's close to our home in Noe Valley and low and behold a true Christmas miracle... the MickyD's on Bayshore had them AND  has a drive-thru, so no parking issues...

I got myself two, one for last night and one for breakfast this morning, I'm crazy, yes, it's scary unidentified pressed meat., yes, and covered with overly sweet BBQ sauce, yes..... but when I can get me a McRib this ole guy is gonna get himself a McRiB!!!  Rico will not eat one, so he got a Quarter Pounder...

That's about it for today sports fans.  I have quite a bit of prep work to do for Christmas Dinner tomorrow, we have 10pm Mass tonight so the day is booked up.  Have a super Christmas Eve!

Good Thoughts! Good Words! Good Deeds!

Last Day to Join....

Gentle Friends I have been trying to catch up on my very delinquent emails and comments, but it seems to be slow going.  There are quite a few of the "no-reply" comments, very frustrating when I'm asked questions that I can't answer, and there are so very many Anonymous comments from various sales and over-seas type places that I just go through and delete - they are really odd for the most part, but that's part of trying to keep and open and ongoing comment section I guess.  I do enjoy reading the comments and emails that come in, and do appreciate them all - so don't hesitated to send me a little note either public or private!!
