It is a nice quiet day here is Chez Suzi. CJ spent the night at a buddy's place and we'll be home by dinner. C is our shipping, I think. Kelly and I are just hanging out sharing holiday baking shows and doing a bit of a home spa with some gave, hand, and feet masks we got from Sephora. No real plans other than chilling out.

Oh, I got to open one present from my extra daughter, Vicki. She sent me a great book on whiskey and whiskey cocktails.

70 degrees today. BAH! Do not like warm Christmas.

about to shower and head to Target for a gift card, couple of groceries, and a quick look through the Christmas stuff.

Now one of my cats is digging in the freshly-cleaned litter as if he expects to strike gold.

My cat does that Matt.

I am sick. I don't like it. Especially since it is starting out like the really bad stuff that happened a couple of years ago.

But Christmas Eve is ok. Doing laundry and watching Doctor Who. Pizza for dinner tonight.

Tomorrow is pork loin stuffed with sage, butternut squash, goats cheese, and something else. With Brussels spouts and bacon, rolls, smashed potatoes. With hot chocolate bread pudding for dessert.

Eggs and fruit for breakfast.

I should be wrapping presents. But I am not.

mountain cedar kicked in, so mom and I are both coughy and sneezy, but not sick. all you poor sickies, I am so sorry.

same Dana, same.

Askye I am sick too. Solidarity

ND has been in bed all day with food poisoning. Not the most fun way to spend Christmas Eve on a cruise vacation. Sorry to hear many of you are also ill.

Okay, presents wrapped. Well, presents bagged. Family currently in solidarity watching football game.

I'm sorry, Sickies! Get well. Lay low.

Emmett has stolen Matilda's toque and declared himself Christmas Chef.

It's about as chaotic as you would expect in the kitchen right now as he makes horseradish sauce from scratch.
