Ken and I have a little christmas cold that I apparently brought home from somewhere, but so far it’s a happy day. Our car has been replaced with a shiny orange one, and we had Crab and Mollusk chowder last night, my first attempt at chowder. We also had some champagne and cherry pastels, they are called. Happy tradition that I decided we would have.

Last year I recorded a piece of my family history for my grandmother and mailed it to her for Christmas. I’ve posted it here for you to listen to. It is a story of my great grandmother, based on her memory of a childhood Christmas. It’s a biggish file, so be warned. Listen here.

Also, I came to my blog after a little time, and I had 455 pieces of Spam in my comment box, so now I’ve limited commenting, which isn’t so common, to registered users again. As much as I love Mariah Carey porn, cialis, viagra and cheapheandbags, it has grown a bit tiresome. But I would love my friends and family to register, and any genuine human that is reading this and would like to particpate in a conversation, not selling watches in their coats, to please register and comment away.
I have a beautiful week off, I plan to clean and craft and smile alot. I hope you do the same. Merry Christmas.
