That sounds like a lovely day, Laura. As do the other check-ins.
I will have to seek out Crémas. That sounds like my jam.
We had a great morning of opening presents, eating a yum, improvised egg/potato casserole, and lounging. Everyone stayed in our Christmas pjs all day, and we watched a couple of movies, chatted, napped, and ordered in dinner. Perfect. Now we are meeting DH's mom for brunch and heading home.
I seem to have a slight cold that hit yesterday, but it's getting better today, so I don't think I'm heading toward A Sickness for which I am grateful.
Cheerios:
I had a particularly good run of picking out gifts for people this year -- like, I could picture each one of them in the item of clothing I bought, and, as it turns out, they were all so pleased! It was cool. Some years, I'm like, "Eh, that'll do...," so it was fun to have multiple home runs.
I will have to seek out Crémas. That sounds like my jam.
Cubans, Puerto Ricans, and the other islands all seem to have some variety of the same type of thing by some name. Creamy stuff plus rum. I see them here as coquito too.
Yes Crema sounds like the Puerto Rican Coquito that I make and love.
Very low key day here yesterday. Lovely.
Happy birthday to the 26th babies.
Happy Birthday Theodosia!
Happy Birthday Jesse!
We're departing for the airport soon and already playing the game "how late will our flight be?" Was 5:05, currently 5:20. Bad weather in Dallas, of course.
Oh, yes! I forgot to say, Happy Birthday, Jesse, and Theo, and Rayne!
Happy birthday to Jesse, Theodosia, and Rayne!
Happy birthdays!
And a Karl drop-by...
Happy Boxing Day to you all, thanks for the good wishes, plus the start of Hanukkah And Kwanzaa! It's a holiday quad-header!
I did nothing on Xmas, didn't have energy to make any plans, and no one tried to offer any, so a day home was OK. I binged on the first couple of seasons of Ghosts (US), which I have to say holds up really well.
Getting my license renewed couldn't have been easier -- in fact, the T dropped me off about 40 minutes early. I went to the AAA office downtown in Boston, which lets you make appointments, they had all my info queued up. I had to go in person because my picture and signature had to be refreshed -- I'm not sure how long it's been since they were originally taken!
