Hot chocolate

4) What is your favorite December holiday tradition?
I don't know if it's a tradition, but I miss my family. Specifically my parents. I've lived with them my entire life and even the first Christmas after my dad died. it was okay, because my mom was still there, but then the next year, she was across the country and I was with my sister and her kids and it didn't feel right. Five Christmases late and it still feels like that. I'm in a constant state of waiting to go home.

5) What is the one thing you will miss most this December because of the pandemic?
I've missed all of the church activities that would have happened this month. Various Christmas parties and the Cantata.

Just wondering...
Do you know anyone who smokes a pipe?

I used to know someone who smoked a pipe, but it's been gone like 15-18 years

What’s your cure for hiccups?

I either try to continously drink water or hold my breath

What invention doesn’t get a lot of love, but has greatly improved the world?

Anything dealing with personal hygiene! Being able to brish your teeth and take a bath/shower is great!

============

I'm so exhausted from today. I'll have pictures tomorrow of the food and everything tomorrow. Right now I want to take off my pants, crawl into bed and go to sleep.

But I will say the turkey was great. It was fall off the bone great! I don't know that I ever want the stress of cooking a turkey again. Now a ham, I will gladly do that for Easter and Christmas next year, but I don't want to deal with a turkey.

Good night and Merry Christmas. I hope your day was great!
