Today was a big Christmas prep day for me. All gifts were wrapped, Gluten Free treats were made (Peanut Butter Cookies, Rice Crispy Treats, and Almond Fudge truffles) and some final cleaning and laundry were done. I work Monday and Tuesday. Jeffrey and I will do our traditional Christmas Eve breakfast before work Tuesday, at a random diner, leaving an especially large tip for whomever is our wait person (my favorite part of the holiday season,) then we will spend a quiet Christmas Eve at home together with the dogs, enjoying holiday treats and cocktails and watching favorite holiday movies.
We will swap a modest pile of gifts Christmas morning, enjoying a quiet day at home together, then take my Mom out to dinner Christmas night.
On December 26th, we pack, load up the car, strap in the dogs into their doggie seats, and head to the cape to spend a week in P-Town, celebrating the new year with the BF, his hubby, and mutual friends.
But, for now, we’re just enjoying the evening by the hearth, stockings hung with care.
What are your holiday plans?

Our plan is to just make some ham, broccoli and cauliflower roasted, some peas and carrots. No mashed potatoes well we are making Macaroni & Cheese and not the damned boxed variety. Oh no.

Oooh! Your dogs got a new bed. Is that for Rita Mae or Harvey? I got one just like it for April, even down to the same color. She loves it. Right now, though, she’s sleeping on Superman’s lap, which she likes even better.
Merry Christmas!!

It was technically for Rita, but Harvey is the Alpha dog so everything is his, ultimately. But Rita uses it more and lives it.
