i need to put my chickory on the tree too. it's really one of those dia de los muertos chickory ornaments, but, hey, i keep it out all year long. christmas ain't the same unless i have both my sons at home .. and i do,
i know there might come a day when that might not be the case, so i'm counting myself blessed.
Awwww, Chickory ornaments. I'm looking at two right now as I type; a black cat and very special squirrel.
My Christmas traditions have been all turned upside down, but I spent today with my family having an early celebration and that was wonderful.
"Christmas ain't the same unless......"
Don't feel sad for me, but nothing is the same anymore.
"The Lemon-Drop Kid" on DVD and my Christmas Cactus blooming.
Christmas isn't Christmas without egg nog, biscochitos, and my Our Lady of Guadalupe with her halo of multi-colored blinking lights holding court in the dining room.
Christmas Eve dinner here is always roast turkey, mash 'taters and gravy, green beans, and apple pie/nilla ice cream ... I see no need to ever change it.
Nonfood essentials: "A Muppet Christmas Carol" and "A Christmas Story".

I wish I could comment but as one that finds tradition repressive and boring, I like Christmas to be different each year.
Aunty, I wish you and yours a wonderful, joy-filled season and all the best for a prosperous and peaceful New Year! xo
