These are delightful and, on their own, one of the real reasons for the end-of-year holidays: Italian Panettones. I know they have plenty of carbs and sugars and, yet, can’t stop munching them accompanied by a cold glass of milk.
holidays meThanksgiving was a success! We had 21 people joining us, so much food that everyone got to pack take-away at the end of the night. Afterwards cleaning is complete, all is well.
Today’s coolish, with 6°C earlier this morning, and sunshine. After coffee with mum, and an early 2 miles walk with dad, it is time to chill in the comfiness of my couch.
family holidaysHeavy cleaning towards Thanksgiving celebration/hosting completed. That means toilets gleam, showers sparkle, and overall kitchen area looks OKish. Got to wait until everyone is awake (yes, some are still in bed here), to finish up one bathroom, and for some cooking to end, to tidy up the kitchen. I’ll say half way there. 😅
holidays meTomorrow is Thanksgiving, and we are hosting, like we do almost every year. This time around we are expecting 22 people, all family. As you can imagine, it is going to be a busy day. I am on clean up duty, before and afterwards. Yay! 😅 Still, happy to see a bunch of the family at once, and share a meal with them. As Horsie said, elders have their time left counted—but, don’t we all?—and we never know if we will be able to share a day again with them.
family holidays horsie meJust a short one to note that Christmas has been declared in full swing for a week now—ever since we got our first cold front. Not only stores are selling the season’s fares, but radio stations are playing Christmas’ music all day long. It all started 1 November. So, happy holidays, am I right?! 🤭
holidaysAwesome Father’s Day this year (it isn’t never bad but this year felt a bit more… “special”). And to top it off, I am off tomorrow. Yay! And while having “off” around, off I go to watch “Jujutsu Kaisen”, season 2!
Now I have watched enough “Jujutsu Kaisen” season 2 (★★★★☆) episodes to be able to rate it. The rating is based on my difficulty to understand what’s going on. Honestly, if it weren’t for the kid, who patiently—but mockingly—explains things to me, I would be lost.
