The holidays are here and Snug Harbor glows with anticipation. I worked the day, but tomorrow is time off for the feasting.

Turkey Day Pre-Game

The turkey is thawed, out on the counter, mince pie is being baked and Bill has done the stuffing to where it is ready for the bird. Tomorrow is the day and everything is set.

Yes, the Holidays are here and the three of us couldn’t be happier (Joann is included in this). Wondrous, memory-inducing smells permeate the home, recalling a time of grandmothers and family.

With the coming of Thanksgiving, the doors of Hanukah and Christmas open. Grown men turn into children once more, however briefly. In that spirit, I will sleep the sleep dreaming of sugarplum fairies dancing in my head.
