* five dollars a pound!
A lovely and funny Christmas Eve. We had mussels, shrimp and linguini, and calamari and lots of cookies. Ariana (2) is terrorized of Santa Claus (to the point we have to spell it) and was afraid to open gifts. Never fear, however: Poppy to the rescue. Lots of out of control running through the house (and the little ones were wound tight, too) and tickling her ever sweet and patient 11-year old cousin, Kylie, to whom Ariana refers as her "Gulfwend". Suffice to say that S-A-N-T-A was good to everyone.
And so, dear blogger friends, I wish you a Christmas full of wonder and a New Year of many blessings.
