The Happiest Season

"Marshmallows for toasting, And caroling out in the snow." Doesn't that sound nice? Except we have no fireplace for toasting marshmallows, and sitting around the stove doesn't sound like a good idea. It doesn't snow here so forget caroling in it too. For that matter I don't know of anyone that goes caroling snow or otherwise.

Loved Sunday's comic strip For Better for Worse. The friend is saying she has everything done for Christmas and she can now just enjoy the season. She was kidding!

But that would be nice wouldn't it? To just enjoy the season. I still have all my wrapping to do, baking gifts for teachers and friends. And for the first time we're going to have a very quiet Christmas Day just us at home, so I also have to plan our Christmas dinner. I asked the kids what they wanted for Christmas dinner. Their answer? Spaghetti and grilled cheese. I just might go with that.
