It's snowing very hard today up here in the north country and we're both to sore to ski being as we skied six days in a row this last week. However, later in the day we're a gonna do a little cross-country skiing around round lake near the house. Our friends Rick and Katherine left us yesterday evening after a two day visit and they are currently on their way to Snoqualmie Pass for some more skiing and then onward to Seattle to catch a Seahawks game on Christmas eve. It certainly was enjoyable to entertain; we drank delicious wine and the she-bandit cooked up some portabello mushroom burgers complimented with a salad made by yours truly and a fresh loaf of french bread. We all finished off the meal with some special chocolate chip cookies made by Rick which had a peculiar green hue to them (which all made us feel kinda funny afterwards, if you know what I mean!). I hope everyone is having an enjoyable holiday season (or had one, in the case of my dad) and are enjoying giving just a little more than recieving. I've provided a picture of a particular christmas ablum that really completes the holidays for me personally. I don't own the album but I do have a couple of tunes from it on the computer. So, grab yourself some egg-nog and brandy, put on some yuletide tunes of your liking, and have yourself a merry little christmas!
