I Like Thursday #118

It's time for I Like Thursday. A few of us bloggers write positive and fun posts that are linked over at LeeAnna's blog, Not Afraid of Color. Go on over and take a look! This is our table last week before we ate our Thanksgiving dinner. We had just put all the food out. Everyone was still busy getting ready for dinner but my mother was all set and waiting!

I used the air fryer last week to make egg rolls. They're actually very easy and taste great! I only put 4 egg rolls in at a time although I could probably add more. They tend to plump up when being cooked and I wanted to make sure they had enough room.


Here's the final product! The recipe I use makes 16 at a time.


We've started to decorate for Christmas. We bought a few kissing balls last weekend.


My husband made a few arrangements for our front door. This isn't the best picture. It was raining this morning. I'll take a better picture next time!

It's been a busy week. I'm trying to get my Christmas shopping done. I'm working on a few Christmas gifts as well. Too much to do this time of year! Have a great weekend!

    1. Thank you, Jocelyn! Yes, I did buy the wrappers from the grocery store. The mystery quilt is fun but also a lot of work in a short amount of time.

A Couple of Finishes
