Merry Christmas!


We're enjoying the day in front of the fire...literally. It's about 15 degrees outside, there's a foot of snow on the ground, and the sun is out. It couldn't be more beautiful, especially when we're lucky enough to have a home and a fireplace.

Feivel and Lynda went for a walk around noon, right after our big breakfast spread (spinach and goat cheese omelet, potatoes, bacon and sausage, mimosas). How we've managed to stay awake since then is a marvel.

Wishing we were all in a big family lodge quietly in front of the fire together. No, wait, if we were all together, it would be lovely, but it would not be quiet.

Happy holidays, all!

Happy Christmas Eve


After Mass, we came home and Janine joined us for a dinner of spaghetti with clam sauce. There was no dungeness crab to be had in town last night, so we made do with clams, which were yummy in their own way.

Then we trimmed the tree and finished wrapping packages and tins of toffee.

Now it is off to bed for a long winter's nap.

Like my new van


Hope you like it. I'm expecting to. This one is LIKE mine, except mine will be silver. And a whole lot cheaper.

Bring your favorite DVD and come on out for a ride. Each of you! Remember, there's the front-seat DVD player, and the back seat DVD player--so we can all be movie mad while we drive. OR we can just listen to satellite radio.

Not that I chose it for the Tim toys.
