We celebrate everything in our family! Larry put up our aluminum tree for the holiday. I decorated it with knit and crochet ornaments, mostly made by my talented friend, Suzette! Since we weren't planning on having guests over due to the Covid-19 restrictions, we did not decorate the rest of the house.

The Christmas season, in spite of the pandemic, has been relaxed and lovely. Last week I drove over to Suzette's house and we had a little lunch outside on her patio. We traded ornaments and generally had a fun time visiting.

I crocheted some goofy gingerbread men for Suzette. Naturally, I forgot to take a photo of them!
The rest of the holiday has been spent knitting, practicing my ukulele, reading, watching TV and snacking. On Xmas Day, Larry and I exchanged gifts, had a yummy brunch of lox, smoked whitefish salad, bagels, etc. and just generally lazed about.
I baked a bread pudding with some failed pumpkin spice cake. I used my favorite recipe from Queen Ida's cook book. Success! It is delicious!
LOVE that roaring fireplace with Xmas music on KTLA every year!
I do hope you had a lovely day! Happy New Year to all of my family and friends. I look forward to seeing you all IN PERSON in 2021!
