Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

We had a nice California visit with all three kids and two partners until the week prior to Christmas. E went home to be with her family and the actual day was shared with M&KC, B&S. 

Gifts were fun. This is what happens when both the purchaser and Amazon make a mistake:

4lbs of giant Reese’s peanut butter cups.

B&S spoiled me with a glimmery set of Iuile watercolours. 

We had been watching the weather after the state was hit with torrential rain, planning a picnic brunch for Christmas Day. The morning’s weather report:

What it actually looked like:

Alas, it burned off by late morning and off to the lake we went.

Lake Cahuilla

Dinner was turkey and a veggie Wellington made by S. Poor girl cooked her own vegetarian main course, but there were plenty of sides and we all were suitably impressed by her effort.

It was a full and enjoyable day.
