Christmas Day 2021

We’ve been binging on Netflix with feel good Christmas romcoms.  So far we’ve watched and enjoyed “Lilly and Dash”, “California Christmas” and it’s sequel, “Home for Christmas” a Norwegian series that is quite engaging, “The Man Who Invented Christmas” about Dickens writing “A Christmas Carol”, just excellent, Ruth’s favourite, “Christmas in the Wild” about a vet who moves to a baby elephant rescue in Africa, and my favourite, “Operation Christmas” about the air force base in Guam and their Christmas distribution.  So, for a complete change of pace last night, we watched a couple of episodes of “Connected”, a science show with a very animated host.  Great fun.  Highly recommend it.

The view from my office window. Makes me feel all warm and cozy.

Our chickens are not happy with this white Christmas, rather unusual for this part of the world.  The snow is still falling, six inches deep now, and the chickens are quite comical as they try to navigate it.  I’m only going out to put a fresh suet cake in the bird feeder you can see hanging on our clothes line.

We are just getting ready to put the 火鸡 (fire chicken = turkey) in the oven.
I hope you all have a great Christmas full of joy and good cheer.  All the best in 2022.
