I just baked Kami’s brownies and have CeeScraps pumpkin cheesecake bars in the oven. I used the kitchen aid mixer and my Pioneer Woman bowls and set a timer on Alexa. If it weren’t for the Peas none of these things would be in my home. I also wouldn’t have an Instant Pot, a Dutch oven or numerous other gadgets I never knew I needed. I’ve certainly been enabled over the years. I’m counting my blessings today after a year of many many losses. We’re anticipating a call any moment telling us a dear friend has passed. I’m so grateful to be able to come here and laugh or cry and just feel like there are people who understand. A special thanks to my dinner tribe. Happy Christmas to you all.

The peas excel at enabling and educating!
Sending big hugs at this hard time and wishing you a little bit of joy too.

I’ve been enabled by the Peas, too, most recently the KA mixer. I love the wealth of information provided on this board. I feel I can trust the reviews here:)
Hugs to you, Kelley, during this time.
And. Merry Christmas to all the Peas,

Huge hugs KelleeM. I know this has been a painful year for you. I am sorry about your friend. You are a blessing to this board and I appreciate reading your posts. You are are right about the enabling and learning from the peas. Most of my relatives this year either received a Kohl’s Big One throw or blanket. And I just got an Insta Pot for Christmas. My DH bought it at Sams; but it is a German one. Merry Christmas Honey!

KelleeM I know that in so many ways you are ready to bid 2018 good bye.
Christmas blessings to you today and in the days to come.
I too am thankful for to have a place to learn, complain, and laugh.

Hugs to you.
I love the enabling family of peas we have here. Truly feels like extended family that we can rely on, fight with, pray and hug with, commiserate with and share joys and sorrows along the way. Merry Christmas peas!!

I hope you have a good holiday Kellee! With those desserts you will want a lot of milk! They are both yummy.
Enjoy your time the best you can. I hope the upcoming year is better for all of you.

I also have things from enabling peas. I baked the cheesecake and soft and chewy lemon sugar cookies. I have the dough for Suzanne's almondine sugar cookies in the fridge.

I lost a dear friend this year as well. I’m sorry it was a tough year for you and I admire your gratitude. I always appreciate the insights and suggestions from the peas and am so glad I have this special place to visit.

I hope 2019 is a better year for you Kellee. You are one of my favorite peas. I know it’s hard waiting for that call!
2018 has been a very difficult year for our community with our neighboring town, Paradise, practically being wiped off the map. With so many being without homes and without basic living needs, it has changed our area. We all pray that 2019 will somehow bring back some bit of normalcy for these thousands of people that are now in our town trying to figure out what’s next. It’s a situation no one has had experience with and it’s a day to day challenge.
I’m with you in enjoying all of the enabling we get here, lol. I want to try those recipes you mentioned but first need to get some elastic waist pants. They sound delicious!

KelleeM you also need the spatula paddle and plastic lid for that kitchenaid if you haven’t already got those.
