It's hard to believe that we say goodbye to another season later today. I think we are going to have Japanese miso ramen bowls with Peggy Ann rolls to help ring in the new season. Buckle up tight, lets get through it together. I predict that winter will be very mild, right up until the time that I start to get excited about the gardening season, then we'll get hit with snow, ice, and hard freezes. (Honestly, that's not really me predicting anything, that just kind of happens often around these parts.)
Our Christmas shopping is 2/3rds finished for the family gathering. I already know the rest of the stuff that I need to get, so I will take care of that today. I'll wrap it all on Wednesday, and then we'll be all set, hopefully. Today, I have two lovely get-togethers to celebrate Christmas with friends who, over the years, have become family. It will be so nice to see everyone. One friend in particular has not been well, and I cherish every minute with them.
I leave you with a truly beautiful version of "The Little Drummer Boy." The God-given voice on the guy with short hair is pitch perfect. His falsetto when he sings the harmony above the melody line gives me chills. And no matter how big or small, towards the end of the video, ya gotta love a drumline. It's shot in soft evening grays and blues and is wintery and touching.
Love to you on this Winter Solstice in the year of our Lord, 2021. Stay warm and safe.
