Last night was the annual Garrett Family Christmas party in Central. It was a fun time with delicious snacks, entertaining children and good company. Although we didn't eat the main entree, we certainly enjoyed the home-baked desserts that all the aunts made. We haven't really been in too much of the spirit this year. Maybe it's the 75 degree weather coupled with rain or the fact that the last part of our year has been stressful and upsetting due to job loss and difficulty finding a new one. At any rate, the holidays feel like just another day this year. On the plus side, the party reminded us of the good people that know and love us and how lucky we are to have such great people in our families. It was a good time.
The first part of the day started off slowly and we drove to Whole Foods in Greenville in the afternoon. Mom needed a few things at Total and since we never brave Woodruff Road, we figured we'd knock out two things at once. Crazy as it sounds, Whole Foods is like a fun park for us. The food options are endless and if you can afford it, shopping here is ideal. We purchased the first Garrett Family Tofurky roast to be enjoyed on Christmas. I heard it was tasty, so we'll see what happens. We also bought a few rice and soy ice creams, that may sound awful, but are actually fabulous! We've been trying to improve our well-being and look for healthier foods. This is definitely the place to be! No offense to our man Gary at Publix and the whole crew, but other grocery stores pale in comparison.
All in all, a delightfully rainy Saturday for us. Until later!
