O Christmas Tree!

 

Here we are in our new place with our resourceful Yucca tree--to whom I gave extra water for all its labors. I was tempted to spike the water but realized in time I'd like that better than the tree. We're having a very merry one, both Vegan and non, the non part duck a l'orange. Also dumplings. Also red cabbage. Also, possibly, Ben-Hur. Now's the time to sit around lazily and listen to Elvis Presley crooning Christmas. Have a good one!

Dinner: Duck, swimming in orange sauce, dumplings, red cabbage with apples, cookies, red wine. Yum. 

Dessert: a movie? Gossip? We're still deciding.  Red wine. Glug.  

P.S. The kids said Die Hard was "a Christmas movie."  ("It's SET at Christmas, Mommy.") Alan Rickman was so young!
