Merry Christmas!!

It's 7:30 am here on the leftcoast. So Cal is having a rare rainy Christmas, my little part of it is 47 degrees. I am happy about that since we have so many 80 degree ones (and when the house is stuffed with people and the kitchen is stuffed with cooking, on goes the air conditioner).

I'm the only one awake right now, enjoying a first cup o'coffee. We did a fair amount of dinner prepping last night while a couple of my daughters (one down from San Francisco, one staying over) baked and wrapped, and we watched Christmas movies. Dinner will be about 1 pm. Menu this year features Beef Tenderloin prepared in a salt dough with fresh parsley, sage, thyme and black pepper. Yorkshire pudding is one of the sides and dessert is Chocolate Raspberry Fondue. There will be about 15 people for dinner.

The place will be crowded, noisy, cluttered and full of laughter, joy and I wouldn't want it any other way.

What are you doing today? Cooking? Visiting? Stayed warm and snuggled in at home?

Celebrate, be happy, ENJOY! My best wishes to you all.

God Bless Us, Everyone.

Merry Christmas! Our family celebrates on Christmas Eve. We had the usual candle-lit dinner and opened our gifts. Much fun was had by all. Enjoy the rest of the holiday.
