 Happy holidays. Y'all, this is not bad at all. This is one of the satin caps that I received from rent by KISS. I prefer this over their silk scarves. And that is it. It makes me look skinny too. I look skinnier. Look at my neck. Y'all, I'm so silly. After that meal yesterday, I need to be trying to find my neck. Y'all, I made macaroni and cheese. I don't like to cook macaroni and cheese, y'all. I'm weird. I prefer, I'm weird like this. Macaroni and cheese, especially since my husband doesn't eat it, I've only cooked it like three, three times. That's it. Two or three times. That is it. It's not something that I even make during the holidays. It really isn't. So anyway, I have four drumsticks. Four pieces of fried chicken. And drumsticks, these drums are really not that big, but still, four pieces of drumsticks, a few bites of broccoli, a serving or two of macaroni and cheese with breadcrumbs. Yeah. And butter, like literally I used half a stick of butter just for my little skillet portion of it. I had a Blueville ice cream with homemade caramel sauce with bananas. Those little two pounds I lost this week, done. Just done. Are you ready, baby? Yeah. Put on your shoes, sweetheart. Nah, cause your hair looks a mess. We have to wash our hair. It's getting really difficult when to wash his hair because he has swim lessons. Stop, baby. He has swim lessons. You can see it. Look at the baby. Oh, look at you. You feel precious. You look at that. Get that hand out of the way. Get that hand out of the way. Y'all, he still sniffs me. I think it's odd, but whatever. So anyway, I like going on. And you can go ahead and take as many medications. Yeah, medications as far as vitamins. I'm gonna take my vitamins this morning. Y'all, I'm at Walmart picking up JB's number one gift. I don't know why they say it's ready when you come in here and I put in my order number on my phone and it doesn't show up. Like, what the? Guess where I'm at, y'all? Look at these cute black Santas. Look, I wanna get, I'm gonna wait until they get way off on sale because right now it'll be $15. I'm gonna get JB one of these once they get down to 70% off. Yeah, I'm gonna get him one of these black Santas. They have 60% off. This is so cute. Kids' crafts. This is cute. Craft stuff. All right, y'all. I'm gonna explain what's going on down here but let me show you something real quick. Wow, look at this. Let it adjust, girl. Look at this. I'm gonna flip through. If you're into planning, this is right up my alley, y'all. These are stickers. This is a sticker book. Michaels. I stopped by Michaels because I had a coupon. While I was there, I saw some new creations by a young woman of the name of LaMica Alston. So I'm like, well, first of all, when I saw everything, I'm like, who up in Michaels is doing all this? Who, where do y'all get this stuff from? Because it's very well represented and of course, this is to do. Y'all, look at the beautiful. I mean, these stickers, when I tell you they are beautiful, look at her with the hijab on. The headscarf. Oh, yes, I did. Yes, look at this. Queens. Look. Shine on, girl. Look at this. Love you, kinks. Look at this. I mean, it was just a bunch of different stuff. I mean, there were planner accessories, stickers. Look, appointment stuff. Coily queen. I love it. So I'm in a couple of planning. Even though I've only been doing this y'all for a year, I've gone crazy. I mean, look, this is some of my planning stuff. I have literally gone crazy. So I'm in a couple of Facebook groups and I share pictures of the Michaels stuff. I mean, she has washi tape. Look at this. And she was tagged in my photo and she's like, let me know what you think. I'm like, sis. First of all, this is beautiful. And second of all, y'all, she's only been doing this since 2014. I'm sure she's been doing it longer, but she officially launched in 2014 and was able to expand her business into Michaels. All right, you guys, it looks crazy back here right now. But what I'm going to be doing is I have a board on my Pinterest account because I'm a crazy organizing mom like this. We always have to tend to be. And here are already some of my pinned crafts for Christmas that I would like to do. Now I won't be able to do everything I know, but at least have it available, okay? So all I'm gonna do is start gathering stuff together and place them in these Ziploc bags, even when it comes to, for example, I have these printout templates. So this is, this is gonna be so cute. A felt reindeer. I'm gonna get all the different color felt together. And if I have time, even, what am I trying to say, trace everything, I won't have time for that today. I'll probably do that tomorrow. Trace everything and then group them together and put them in here. Because with JB around, girl, please. Same thing with paper plates or whatever. Whatever I have done, I need to put it together and put it in one. And then I'm gonna be noting everything on a card with a little bit of instruction so I don't go crazy. Y'all love this new song, my Missy Elliot. Look, I had no idea that she had Graves disease and that's one of the reasons for her weight loss. I had no idea. Anyway, that's sad. So let me show you what I've done. I have a lot of stuff going on back here. So let me put these up. I still have them. All right, you guys. So I'm gonna be making chicken fried rice tonight. This is my recipe. I'm not doing authentic. If you're looking for, first of all, look. That should, yeah, indicator. It's not gonna be authentic. So here is a list of ingredients that I'm using. I'm using veggies that I have in my fridge. I could use more because I have a lot more in there, but we're gonna keep this. This is simple in my opinion, okay? So I have cabbage, carrots, peas, peppers, red onion, garlic, ginger somewhere in here, green onions, bell pepper. As far as sauces go, we have orange sauce, sariachi sauce, sesame seed oil, and then we have low sodium soy sauce. Now with traditional chicken fried rice or fried rice, you will use two different types of soy sauce, dark and light. That's too much sodium in my opinion. So we're just gonna go with the, and then I have some rice here that I'm gonna be making. Again, you're supposed to be using day old rice, but we ain't got time for that. So we're just gonna make this rice. This is probably the first thing we're gonna put on the oven so they can kinda dry out. What I'm going to attempt to do is put the, once it's done, I'm gonna put the rice in the refrigerator to kinda dry it out. All right, guys, so these are all my veggies chopped up. You can't see everything because there's a lot here. I have my chicken all diced up clean. I have in here soy sauce, a little bit of soy sauce, some sesame oil, about two tablespoons of cornstarch. We all know that this is good when you put it on chicken. It can help to keep the chicken from drying out and gives it a nice crisp. And I have here about half a cup of some green onions. Okay, so I'm gonna go ahead and get my wok, get some oil in it, and I'm gonna start off with my eggs. I have two beaten eggs in the fridge. Gonna scramble those, so I'm gonna do my, see, I'm a little bit weird when it comes to how you cook food in order. I personally prefer to do the veggies, but since the chicken will take so long, it's been gonna do that after the eggs. Y'all, I don't wanna wrap these presents. Can't I just wrap these boxes? Like, I mean, what's the whole point? Look, can I just wrap these boxes and put a bunch of bowls on it, and then he can just open up the box, but oh, thank you, mama. I know y'all, I know y'all think, girl, if you don't, yeah, I hate this. I shouldn't say that, that's a strong word. I really don't care to wrap presents because I know I'm not good at it. So let's just go ahead and get started. I only have 30 minutes to do this. All right, y'all, I am done. Look, this took me almost an hour to do. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, about 10 little ragged ass presents. And yeah, you know what? For this one, I'm sorry. Look, I don't need y'all judging me. I put everything back in the box. I'm gonna find some more tape, really tape it up and put some bowls on it. I am tired because it's a volcano. Yeah, we're gonna have to do this in the living room, or the den, the family room, the den, where we normally do our crafts next to the Christmas tree, okay? Yeah. And we have to have this. Y'all, this shaggy ruck, shit. Oh, yeah. It looks like, it looks like cranberry juice. I'm gonna get this stuff up because it's shit. It looks like cranberry juice. Cranberry juice, you know what? I love cranberry juice. I love cranberry juice. Yeah, we also have instructions. What do you think about all the crafts, Mommy? Instructions? Okay, what do you think about all the crafts, Mommy, put together? Good. Good, you're excited for winter break? Mm-hmm. Yeah. And I also have... What is that? So this is the first craft we're doing, and it's the first day of winter break, and he already wants to do one, but that's okay because I already put these bags together. Again, two of them were for me for JD. We have to like build up. And then this has one, two. This has four crafts. So we have about eight crafts for him to do. Nine if he includes the Christmas tree in the back. 10 if he includes this, we're gonna do this now. All right, baby, let's go into the dinner. The volcano, you ready for a big one? Yeah. Ready? Yes, I'm so ready. There we go. No, I know. Oh, look at... Oh, look at theirs. Isn't that cool? Look at the Santa. He's in the outhouse. That's what that is. You really are. Isn't that cool? Ciao. Thomas the train. Okay, baby, we gotta go back way up. Here we go with this. Look at that. Look at the unicorn. Yeah. Look at this. Oh my God, what the heck? Look at that. Smile, boo boo. Smile right here. All right, boo boo. We're turning around.
