Even though this last magazine deadline was, without a doubt, the deadline from hell (and it still is continuing weeks past the finish of contribution... I don't even know if we're printed yet!); and even though all the stress from it landed me the most odd cold (from instant migraine to stuffed sinuses to full-blown cold to nerovirus... ugh), I'm enjoying the holidays. Mostly because, completely without expectation, I'm the source of a sweet little flirtation! It's got me all smiles and girlish giggling, a sight to see, and I intend to enjoy every minute of it, while it lasts!
Brandy is flying home from a very odd and unhappy Christmas with her family, and we've decided to re-do Thanksgiving, which she missed during her vacation in the BVI. Not quite all the traditionals, since she and I are trying to limit bad foods -- I guess the pumpkin pie and Steph's recipe for White Trash don't count -- so no mashed potatoes and green bean casserole or candied yams. She's put in a request for acorn squash, the way my mother's been making it for years, and stuffing and gravy. I'll add some roasted gold cauliflower... roasting really brings out much more flavor, and some sugar snap peas.
I hope everyone has a happy and healthy holiday as well as the coming New Year!
