Am I rushing the holidays by asking for suggestions already? I don't mean to make one feel that way. I see the holidays moving quickly into view (Thanksgiving is next week!) and I wanted to get a head start, as well as, get the best selection. I have had things already mailed ahead.
I am excited about Christmas and Thanksgiving. We will be traveling but we will be able to see everyone this year. Of course, it won't be as long as we want but it will help some in the long run.
We will have a couple of holiday parties to attend here. One will be on a yacht with dinner and dancing.
The holidays in California is very different. No snow and really cold weather to get you in the spirit. Homes are not decorated as much as those back east. We have our artifical tree up but not decorated yet. We want to have time to enjoy it before the trips. At least we won't have to worry about it drying out. I know it is not the same as the smell of a real tree. I can still bake and fill the house with the aromas. Smelling the cinammon, gingerbread, turkey, ham, sweet potatoes, dressing, and even fruitcake, makes one think of holidays past and future.
Enjoy the time before, during, and after the holidays. They just move too fast!
