Company's Coming
The holidays are off to a roaring start. In our three days off alone together, Riccardo and I have conquered the following:- chocolate chip cookies
- chorizo & manchego puffs
- almond/cinnamon stars
- mini quiches
- ham & cheese logs
- chocolate maccaroons
- decorated sugar cookies
- crab & cream cheese filo triangles
- cherry tarts
So the in-laws arrive this afternoon. The sister-and-brother-in-law tomorrow morning. They'll all stay through to the 28th, and on the 29th my sisters, mom and niece arrive. Can't wait!
We've got loads of activities planned: a visit to the Frankfurt Christmas Market in Birmingham (so awesome!); two visits to Stratford; Boxing Day at the Dog Races; fondue; a day trip to Windsor Castle; raclette; bowling with family and friends; and probably, loads of board games, movies, snowy walks, and eating thrown in for good measure. I love Christmas!
Well folks, since this is probably the last internet time I'll have to myself in the coming days/weeks,
HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!!
Wishing you and yours health and happiness this holiday season.
Love Crystal & Riccardo
P.S. Inevitably, pictures will follow in the new year.
