Feeling like the White Rabbit again...

Ya know the White Rabbit in Disney's Alice in Wonderland? All running around I'm late, I'm late!! Instead I'm going around I'm busy, I'm busy! Christmas is coming so much to do! We are having a christmas night party again, which will be the test of Bandit's training as well as a lot of fun! Here is our tree, we got it last night, its a Fraiser Fir!


 And here is our latest ornament! A little Bandit! Its the only one on the tree since we are waiting for the branches to fall. 
Also, I made Jade's Italian pulled pork, but ya know what I used? Canned zucchini! Yum! And our Island Grocery Store did not have the canned tomatoes Jade recommended, I had to get sauce with Italian herbs, oh well. And I used McCormick italian spices cause I already had those in the pantry.
That's it and it was yummy, we ate it over spaghetti.
And last night while Hef's dad put the tree up I decided to try a Manhattan. It was quite lovely! Also it was very simple, a measure of canadian whiskey, a half measure of sweet red vermouth, and a dash of bitters, stir it up over ice in the shaker, strain, garnish and enjoy!

Your Italian pulled pork looks just as yummy as mine was. Good thing hubby's not home or he'd be wanting some of that. :)

You wait until all the needles fall before decorating? That is SO Charlie Brown.

Christmas tree has always been one of the symbol of the birth of Christ... It is a lovely tree and so meaningful indeed. I wonder what you got for Christmas for Hef? Hmmm.... a new rabbit hutch? I want to hear about it.
