Have a good Christmas yourself. We have 6 inches of fresh snow, and the snowblower started on the first pull, so I am off to a good start, here in Wisconsin.

Merry Christmas to all my GW friends. I hope you all have a safe and blessed day tomorrow. I just finished cleaning the house, while listening to Christmas music, enjoying an evergreen candle and watching the snow gently fall and now will get ready for church. All four adult kids will be here for dinner after church and then of course all day tomorrow, along with my mom who lives with us. I took a break this year, after 30 some years, and am not having the whole family over (about 30 of us). I needed a break. I'm taking some heat for it, but it wouldn't be the holidays without some family drama. LOL May your drama be non-existent this year!

Best wishes for a holiday season and may the New Year bring joy, peace and blessings to all (along with rain to those who need it and sunny skies to those of us that don't LOL).

LOL Cathy! I know that's heresy, but there are those of us who are gravy challenged. That said, I bought gravy from Gelson's (made by them) and took it to DD's house. Come to find out that no one but DGS Mason (20 months) would eat it! The rest liked their turkey plain or with cranberries. So go figure! DSIL said that his mashed potatoes were so moist that who needed gravy? LOL! Susie, great photos! Loved seeing Amy, Drew and Frank and of course that darling little pixie! I hit the road at 8:30 this morning for an early but stressful doctor's appt. All was perfect and I was back in the car in 23 minutes! That NEVER happens at UCLA! So, I made the best of an early morning and hit Crate & Barrel and the mall. I bought a few things, but wasn't impressed with the prices or the merchandise enough to buy much. I did snag a great quality cashmere sweater, but that was my only real buy. Home to put my feet up and we'll catch up with Netflix and the DVR tonight. Dinner is leftover roasted veggies, stuffing and I'll make some almond parmesan crusted fish for the entree. Stay warm and dry everyone!! It's a blustery chilly day here in sunny L.A. Temps in the high 40-low 50 range. In awhile, I'll clink with y'all with a mug of white pear tea*
