Our holiday celebrations are in full swing. Our friend Lisa came over on Friday for our annual making of the holiday cards. Glitter and glue ensued. We also had a lovely Northern Italian dinner of Eggplant Parmesan, salad, Alfredo noodles, and cranberry-lemon cake, all chased down with an excellent Merlot.
This weekend, Ari and I went to a fundraiser for Ghana school children that one of Lisa's coworker collect monies for. It was down in the Georgetown neighborhood, part of southern King County that we rarely get to. We found an excellent local bakery with the world's best chocolate croissants! Ari discovered a used bookstore, that gal could find a bookstore on the moon!
This morning, I went paint shopping with Lisa. I suggested color combinations. She bought the paint. It was fun. Later, we mixed up three batches of cookie doughs; sugar, gingerbread, and pfeffernusse (German white pepper) cookies. Tomorrow, we roll them out, bake, and decorate!
Just a reminder, tomorrow a total lunar eclipse, solstice, and yule all collide around the midnight hour, a magical time!
