A really fun day that started a little more stressfully than it should/could have (stress comes from within of course....) All in all, the kids were happy and that's what counts. Centa was leaving for the US and she had the fortitude to be awake early enough to make a waffle breakfast for the kids. But seriously, she had to leave at 11:30 to get to the airport, and somehow made the time to cook with a Barnaby-the-Elf hat...

| see you in March! |
Mary and Martin came back just after the kids left with Brian so I could work magic. They decorated the tree and I made dinner (nutcrusted celeriac with blue potato salad... it included french mustard we got from dorian, and algerian olive oil which i finally opened up. it also included blood oranges that were *orange* inside (with i think is not right) and the cookies j+a brought over friday for dessert)
 |
| yummy |
then the little bell rang to let us know the candles were all lit by magic...
 |
| with candles (we rolled the beeswax with the kids) |
 |
| with kids |
The tree is perfectly scraggly thanks to Brian choosing the perfect one with all the kids.
 |
| they carried it all the way home |
