DECEMBER 3

December 3rd 2017

Sundays begin at Valleyview.
Lunch with Dad
and it was my week to bring it.

Mass is at 10:30.

We were busy laughing 

that Dad is pretty much done 

all HIS shopping

and homemade gifts...

while we all are still struggling.

Came home and had a one hour break,

then to the kitchen

where I made butter tarts

and started a roast beef dinner.

House straightened up,

we sat down to listen to Judy

explain the merits of some

VERY expensive kitchen knives.

Mom arrived JUST as I was 

finished the gravy

and we had dinner.

Then off to the sofa

and watch White Christmas together.

A lovely day.

Christmas pudding

originated as a 14th century porridge called 'frumenty' that was made of beef and mutton with raisins, currants, prunes, wines and spices.

Good night from John Street
