Our tree with handmade snowflakes crocheted by my mom
I've just unloaded bags of groceries from my car for the second day in a row.
This evening daughter M will arrive.
Tomorrow I will bake gluten-free lemon bars and a flourless chocolate cake. I will stencil a powdered sugar snowflake on top and serve the cake with coconut gelatto and/or lemon sorbet for Christmas dessert. You can of course take the road more traveled and have it with vanilla ice cream instead.
Tomorrow evening daughter C and her multi-talented husband N will arrive. On Christmas this husband will make a ham. Friends will arrive bearing delicious things to eat with the aforementioned ham. We will eat and talk and laugh uproariously because that's what we do with these friends. We will drink punch (and the punch will have a very fancy ice-ring in it if all goes well.) And we'll drink champagne, and other stuff, and lots of water because that's healthy.
Wishing you uproarious laughter and good health. I think one leads to the other.

May it all be merry and bright, dear Denise. You deserve all the goodness and light.
Sounds lovely. Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to you and yours. The crocheted stars are just lovely.
Wonderful!
Oh how wonderful -- all of it, but especially the laughter and the ice-ring. I'm going to make one right now. That's water and cranberries in a Bundt pan, right?
So lovely. Your mom's snowflakes are gorgeous! Merry Christmas!
