Your house looks lovely and "home"-ish. Where's your 2 feet of snow?
Cold winter is a good time to think of other people's hunger.

Susan, oh yes, we have snow! But last year's holiday greeting photo shows the house in snow, so this year I chose a photo from last month, when the garden was just nearing its end of bloom. I love the colors of garden in November. Or maybe I'm in denial about the snow....

Happy Holidays! We postponing Christmas travel due to sleet and snow storm moving this way today. It was a short trip, but could be dangerously slick. We will just stretch the season with another day to celebrate :) We have a back up plan for dinner for 2 tomorrow.
