Breakfast for Christmas

Our Christmas Breakfast table today

Best wishes to everyone whatever holiday
you celebrate, and my warmest wishes for
peace in your world.  After the flutter of
present opening, and the running around
before Christmas -- there is a delicious
lull before dinner, dressing up and welcoming
guests.  It is indeed all good.

In this photo Steven lights the candles on the
breakfast table.  On offer, French toast, with
blueberries, strawberries and our own frozen
peaches, champagne and orange juice, and
coffee cake.  Fresh coffee in the coffee pot
kept us going. Years ago we decided that
everyone should eat before we opened
presents.  It doesn't seem to calm us down
but it does make the day start in a wonderful
way.

Have a loving-your-traditions day.
