Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2023-24

 

As Christmas approaches, the Sassy Silver Sisters are filled with joy and excitement. We can't help but feel grateful for another year of laughter, love, and sisterhood. Christmas has always been a special time for us, as we gather together to celebrate the birth of Jesus, exchange thoughtful gifts, and indulge in delicious homemade treats. But this year, as we reflect on the past 12 months, we are reminded that the true meaning of Christmas goes far beyond the materialistic aspects. It's about cherishing the moments spent with our loved ones, spreading kindness and love to those around us, and being grateful for all the blessings in our lives.

As we enter a new year, we are filled with hope and anticipation for what's to come. The start of a new year brings a sense of renewal and the opportunity to set new goals and make positive changes in our lives. We are excited to see what adventures and challenges await us in the coming months, and we are ready to face them with our signature sass and silver hair.

But as we look forward to the future, we can't help but also look back on the memories we've made throughout the year. From Cathy's weekly Facebook chats to our monthly get-togethers, and every moment spent with YOU has been filled with laughter and love. 

As we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, we also want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for being a part of our journey. Whether you've been following us since the beginning or just stumbled upon our sassy adventures, we are grateful for your support and love. You have become a part of our family, and we are blessed to have you in our lives.

So as we with our family and friends, let us also remember to spread love and joy to those around us. Let's make this holiday season a time of giving, not just of gifts, but of kindness, compassion, and generosity. From the Sassy Silver Sisters to you, we wish you a Christmas filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories. And may the new year bring you happiness, success, and all the sass your heart desires. Cheers to a fabulous holiday season and an even more fabulous new year!

Keep it sassy,

The Sassy Silver Sisters

20 Motivational Quotes to Help Keep Your New Year's Resolutions

 

New Year’s Resolutions are great for making positive changes in your life. 

I'm personally not a New Year's resolution person but I see nothing wrong with it. I just have a problem keeping them. My husband does well with them because he's much more disciplined than myself. I do believe it is the perfect time to make a change in one's life. Have you ever heard of "New Year, New Me"? People want to change for the better. We all can use a bit of motivation, so I'm sharing some motivational quotes that might help you in your journey to a better YOU. Maybe even they will give me the boost I need to stay motivated.

1. "Failure is not the opposite of success: it's part of success." - Arianna Huffington

2. "Approach the New Year with resolve to find the opportunities hidden in each new day." 

 - Michael Josephson

3. "There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say 'WATCH ME'".

4. "Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right"

5. "Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness." - William E. Gladstone

6. "There are far far better things ahead than any we leave behind." - C.S. Lewis

7. This is my favorite quote: "MORE...sleep, music, tea, books, sunsets, creating, long walks, laughter, hugs, dreaming, road trips, fun, love."

8. "One resolution I have made and try always to keep, is this: to rise above the little things." - John Burroughs

9. "Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365-page book. Write a good one." 

10. "Don't complain just work harder".

11. "Write it on your heart that every day is the best day of the year." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

12. "You're not going to master the rest of your life in one day. Just relax. Master the day. Then just keep doing that every day." 

13. "Success doesn't come from what you do occasionally. It comes from what you do consistently." 

14. "Don't be afraid to start over. It's a brand new opportunity to rebuild what you truly want."

15. "Do what you have to do until you can do what you want to do."

16. "The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new." - Socrates

17. "Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will."

18."It's okay if you fall down and lose your spark. Just make sure that when you get back up you RISE as the whole damn fire."

19. "If it doesn't challenge you it won't change you".

20.  "Push yourself because no one else is going to do it for you".

I hope that you enjoyed these quotes and would love to hear your thoughts and if you make New Year's resolutions. Comment below.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

New Year's Resolutions to Try in 2022

New Year's resolutions are not something I enjoy, mainly because I fall short on those goals. Do you feel the same way? According to one study, about 80% of people who make New Year's resolutions have given them up by the second week of February. Have you heard of  "Quitter's Day"? January 19th seems to be the day most people quit their resolutions and goals, based on research from more than 800 million user-logged activities in 2019. I believe it is possible to accomplish those goals as long as you're being realistic.

Start small. The smaller the goal, the bigger the impact it can have on your life and the more likely you will see it through.

Whether it's self-care, learning something new, or just trying to be a better person overall, you can achieve those goals and a brighter future for yourself.

I've come up with 50 NY resolutions (with the help of some articles I read in Woman's Day Magazine, Very Well Mind, and The Pioneer Woman) that might help and encourage you on your journey.

• Develop a skincare routine.
• Relax.
• Be more mindful of your health. There are a ton of apps to help you.
• Book your doctor appointments for the year.
• Be intentional.
• Learn to find peace in the middle of chaos.
• Get creative. Pick up a hobby.
• Declutter and get organized.
• Sleep more.
• Start journaling.
• Take a social media break.

• Travel, even if it’s to the next town over.

• Put your phone down and be in the moment.
• Look on the bright side.
• Make a new friend.
• Try new foods.
• Listen more to music.
• Read more books.

• Spend more time with people who bring you joy.

• Spend less time in front of the TV, and more time connecting with those you love.
• Listen intently, and don't give advice unless it's asked for.
• Make sure friends and family know how much you love them every day.
• Get to know your coworkers better.
• Send more greeting cards.

• Avoid the impulse of looking at your phone as soon as you wake up.
• Be a happier person by ending communication with anyone who isn’t making your life better.
• Unfollow negative people on social media.
• Empathize more and judge less.
• Practice saying "NO".

• Speak kindly to yourself.

• Forgive yourself for infractions big and small.

• Take one small step towards your "someday," every day.
• Don't say "I'm sorry" unless you really mean it.
• Accept compliments by saying "thank you," and nothing more.
• Celebrate small wins.
• Stop comparing yourself to others. 

• Take the stairs instead of the elevator whenever possible.
• Drink more water.
• Do something healthy every day, even if it's just drinking a cup of green tea.
• Limit alcoholic beverages.
• Take routine walks and track your steps.
• Eat more fruits and vegetables.
• Try a new healthy recipe at least once a week.

• Track your spending.
• Stop all of your non-essential spending for a certain amount of time, whether it's for a day, a week, or a month.
• Learn to recognize your worth and then ask for it.
• Start investing for a sound future.
• Get in the habit of checking your bank account daily.  In addition to helping you stay on top of your spending and any deposits, it can also alert you to any fraudulent charges, which are always important to get ahead of.
• Pick up a side hustle.
• Save for a rainy day.

Chick-fil-A Sauce vs Walmart Chicken Dipping Sauce

First off, HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 2020 was a challenging year and we hope that 2021 will be better and that we can get to more of our normal life. Sad to say, this may be our new normal for a while. Oh well, let's talk about something we all love to talk about and that's food!

We LOVE Chick-fil-A! Did you know that their most delicious special sauce was invented by the owner of our local Fredericksburg CFA restaurant? Indeed it was and you can read about it here Serendipitous sauce the chick-fil-a sauce story. It's a great story!!

I don’t get to CFA as often as I would like. I keep their sauce on hand but when it runs out, oh my, what shall we do. We found out that Walmart has a Great Value Chicken Dipping Sauce that rivals CFA Sauce. My daughter decided to try a taste test and I was in. Here’s what we found out:

First off, my daughter put the two sauces in separate bowls and marked them A & B. I was supposed to guess by looking & tasting which one was which. I knew right off the bat that B was the CFA sauce because of the lighter color. I tasted both and again picked B as the CFA sauce. I was correct on both.

The major differences between the two were that the Great Value was darker in color and had a smokey bbq flavor also a bit tangier. It also had a thicker consistency. The CFA sauce is sweet and mustardy also it is thinner in the bottle than in the small packages. 

Size and price difference: GV is 12 oz. for $1.92 and the CFA sauce is 8 oz. for $2.50. (price increase in 2023 is GV sauce $2.28 and the CFA sauce is $3.98)

My preference is always going to be the CFA sauce. It just goes so well with chicken and I like to dip my fries in too. Oh so good!! The GV sauce is good too, so I will have this in my pantry for a go-to when I run out of CFA sauce.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on the sauces. Do you like CFA sauce? Have you ever tried the GV dipping sauce? Comment and share.

Stay safe and healthy,

~ Kelly

 Our equipment works okay but we'd like to have a better camera and a microphone. With the TIP JAR we can eventually purchase these items.  If you enjoy our videos and you'd like to help us out, even if it's a dollar, we would be so excited.  We have yet to decide the type of camera we would like to have, so we will let you know when we have figured it out. We really aren't all that savvy when it comes to all this technical stuff but we are willing to try. Can't fault a girl for trying. ;) UPDATE: We now have lighting and a green screen to play with in our videos --- 

 thanks to our TIP JAR !!
