location: Home, with the snow
Current Mood: content

We had a lovely Festival of Lights yesterday -- I spent the morning hours making gingerbread for the house we're going to put together today (this is the first one we've ever done) and picking up around the house for company.

I threw together chicken pot pie for the meal and it was happily eaten by all.

We'd planned on having folks just stay over until the morning as the forcast was for some heavy snow (we'd gotten a couple of inches the night before) but the Yule tree in the living room had Miss A choked up all day and evening long so the Spousal Unit braved the icy and snowy roads to take her and Mr. G home. It was a good thing as the snow picked up and we've about 6-8 inches in the yard today. With the temps hovering at freezing, it's a given that the roads will be fairly ugly until we get off the hill.

The Elder and Youngest Spawn had planned on having friends over for the making and giving of treats and gifties, but with the snow it's been cancelled for the time being.

I'll be addressing the cards and getting them out in the mail this week. All in all preperations for Yule are pretty good.

I hope that this finds all of you healthy and happy.
