Two days 'til Christmas.
It is very foggy this morning where we live. Quite foreboding, considering we're to drive 60 miles north for a family get-together this noon. The weather has been mild up until today, and then fog sets in. With all the traveling, we can only hope the fog lifts soon.
Both of us went to the local grocery store yesterday afternoon. Honestly, there's a cruel Christmas game being played by the retailers, and it's called Price Gouging.
Our contributions to the holiday table are bacon-wrapped water chestnuts and poppy seed cake. Each person is to bring something to be served with all the fixings for hoagie sandwiches. The afternoon will conclude by making homemade ice cream the old-fashioned way.
Whatever your plans, please be safe and enjoy the company of one another. I so wished for a white Christmas, but will settle for what it is.
Hope you had a safe journey.
ReplyDeleteWe went to the Mr.'s son's house. We had homemade pizza, salad, exchanged and then homemade apple pie with ice cream the Mr. made. Nice Get Together.
Another likeness......the homemade ice cream. We did the same yesterday with the G-clan. This year we had a family photo taken. All the adults wore the same colored flannel shirt and the little ones wore black tops. To be perfectly honest, there was an element of fear that ran through my brain. We treasure the moment, because that's all we really have.
