I’m now in for the night, having picked up the stocking candy when I hit the grocery store during my run. (Had to make sure that not all of it was chocolate; Gabe has decided to forgo any pretense about abiding it.) Eric and Sam still plan to run out for last-last-minute shopping in a bit. 
I’m making another Pepperoni Loaf, as well as some cookies for Santa; Eric is just now finishing up some dumplings for Amanda’s clan to enjoy tomorrow. Lots of little things going on, miniature hustle and bustle all around us.
I hope everybody reading this, and everybody they love, and everybody who doesn’t read but whom I love, and everybody with whom I happened to come into contact this season – yes, even those people who splashed me – have a happy holiday. God bless us, every one.
I love your video posts. They are so thoughtful!
It’s 10 p.m. here. Husband is at a Christmas party next door to the church (pretty convenient for Midnight Mass). And I have gotten the kid to bed. He opened his Christmas Eve gift earlier tonight: Playstation 2.
It’s going to be a “Twilight” Christmas for me. My grandfather sent me $$, so I got the last 2 books. My husband got me a book about the movie.
I got my husband a 5-quart cast iron casserole dish, and various kitchen utensils.
I got books for my father, stepfather and mother. They all have January birthdays, so they all got books for both.
Merry Christmas!
I run yesterday (24th dec) … in the fog and only fog … i live in the fog
