Merry Christmas!

Today is Christmas!  It is my favorite holiday (for many reasons.) This year has been trying, but we still managed to have a good Christmas. We kept the old traditions we have had for as long as I can remember (putting up the tree, all the nativities, the Christmas Eve meal - meat pie-  and the Christmas Day meal - roast beef, Yorkshire pudding -  along with presents.) I also did a lot of baking (for friends and family.) I made: cranberry bread, fruitcake, chocolate chop cookies, peanut butter cookies, pecan tarts and meat pies. I also made both dinners. All-in-all I really tried to do my best to make everything happen. While this isn't the best Christmas I have ever had it isn't the worst. Hopefully, next year will bring nothing but good things to my family and myself.
