And this is my friend's table at Christmas. She served the food buffet-style (on counter to right). Lots of good food. And yes, it was way better than Bob Evans!!!

Don’t know if you stopped by here yesterday, but I was
guest-posting on Delilah Devlin’s blog. Even shared a little excerpt to Ghostly Liaison (which I guess maybe I
should include that on my blog or website, huh?). Anyway, here’s the link, in
case you want to check it out: http://www.delilahdevlin.com/blog/2014/12/28/stacy-mckitrick-ghosts-real-or-just-stories/

Now for the pictures of the towel creatures I promised on
Friday. See…when I tell someone I’ll do something (e.g. download pictures from
my iPhone), I tend to do it. It’s when I keep the information to myself that I
tend to not do something. Is it that
way for you, too? Anyway.. every night when the Steward turned down the bed, he left us a little towel figure. I can figure out what some of them are, but not all.

| Day 1 -- Have no idea what he's supposed to be! :) |

| Day 3 -- A monkey (I asked) |

| Day 4 -- An elephant |
 |
| Day 5 -- A dinosaur |

| Day 6 -- Uhhh. A dog? Hugging himself? Hmmm... |
 |
| Day 7 -- A lobster |

| Chickies!! |
So…what plans do you have on this last Monday of 2014? I
received Blind Temptation back from
my editor, so I’ll be editing. Thank goodness nothing major needs fixing.
That’s always a good feeling!
Have a great Monday!

Any day I don't have to cook is a good day.
You have a good friend to invite you for Christmas dinner.
Maria - Our friend, who is more family than friend, LOVES to cook. She'd probably beat us up if we didn't come over. :)
omg, those towel animals are AWESOME!
And yay for buffet style! That's how we roll with my extended family on Christmas day
Sarah - I don't think there would have been room for our plates if all the food was on the table. Our friend cooks THAT much! :)
Buffet style is always the best when there's a large group. Saves all that space on the table.
Those towel animals are beautiful!!!
Darke - I loved those animals, too. So glad I stumbled upon them. Thanks for stopping by. :)
Those are great towel arrangements, and I get the point about buffets. We had a trad table arrangement for Christmas for a family of four, but a big buffet two days later for a party of twelve. When does the diet kick in Stacey? Mine begins in a week
Mike - Diet? Aack! :) Actually, I went back to the gym today. Boy, did that take some work, too. It was freakin' freezing out there!
Love the towel arrangements! I have to say though, when we were traveling before the Thanksgiving holiday, we stayed in a hotel where the maids "attempted" the elephant arrangement and it did not look like an elephant. I cannot share with you here what it actually looked like, but to give a hint, I thought we'd found ourselves in a "love motel" of some sorts. haha
Diane - Yeah, I have a side shot of that elephant and didn't feel it was appropriate to post. :)
Thanks for stopping by! I tried to comment on your blog, but I have problems with Google+ and IE at times (and today is apparently one of those times).
We've had a few ordered Thanksgiving and/or Christmas meals over the years, and the home-cooked ones always beat them by a long shot!
Rebekah - My friend's cooking beat Bob Evans by a long shot. My own??? Well... There's more than one reason I ordered out. Haha! :) Thanks for stopping by!
A monkey (you asked).
Hahahaha. That's funny stuff. Great post, fun table, and Happy 2015.
I wonder how many hours it took the crew to make all those (and how many crew were involved!). Fun stuff, thanks for sharing!
Ivy - I DID ask! The Steward was very funny. He kept messing with my hubby.
Jeff - I'm sure the night crew isn't near as busy as the day crew! Bet it really passes the time.
