And, and, and, another batch of dairy-free biscuits, using my new shortbread pan that Tim gave me for the Solstice. I gave him a game for the 360 (xbox console). And so far, Tim made his Solstice goal but I haven't made mine yet.
That's what we do each Solstice and Equinox. We get a fun gift, preferably something frivolous. And we each make a three-month goal. It's a happy way to celebrate the seasons.
Wow, for someone that's not here today, I sure yapped a lot. As I write this, it's Sunday night and we're about to close the lids on our coffins and get some shut eye.
I like that tradition!
ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteSuch fun !
ReplyDeleteKeep on baking !
cheers, parsnip
Thanks and Happy Birthday to your Solstice son. Very cool gift you and your daughter made, him.
DeleteI like your gift-giving and goal-setting tradition!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra. We do too. So fun.
DeleteThe lids on your coffins, huh?
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, it gets too chilly.
DeleteI love it you buy gifts to celebrate the seasons. So sweet. Enjoy your day :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Wendy.
Deletelove the idea of celebrating the soltice like this!
ReplyDeleteIt's great fun and we get to do it four times a year.
DeleteSounds like you had a good Christmas day on your blog. That is very cool about the card and dropping off goodies at your favorite MickeyD's.
What a great tradition you have!
ReplyDeleteIt's great fun, and silly too. Read your post. Hope you slept better. Sounded like she didn't give you decaf, yikes.
DeleteI think that's an awesome tradition!
ReplyDeleteIt's great fun. Hope you find good undies. I'm really not help on your post because I buy cheapos.
DeleteI haven't played any of the Dragon Age games
ReplyDeleteHow come?
DeleteI LOVE the traditions you have. So much fun. Way cool. And I got your emails; just haven't had a chance to respond. The one about your teeth....BAHAHAHAHAHAHA... I love that you send those quirky messages. Love it. Okay, time to shut down, make popcorn and watch yet ANOTHER Christmas movie. Good stuff. Nite nite, Wonder Woman...
ReplyDeleteI don't have a Twitter or G+ account so I just send emails about teeth.
DeleteHow are you liking your short short hair cut? Is it easier to maintain?
I LOVE my short hair. Washes quickly/styles even quicker. I'm not quite used to it yet, but that's pretty normal.
DeleteThat's how it was for me too, when I went from hair that was down to my butt, chopped up to my shoulders. By gosh, it felt funny when I washed it because there was no hair. Less shampoo, too.
DeleteDoes take some time to get used to. Fun though, I think to get our hair done differently.
Lovely tradition. Enjoy your baking.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jo. Happy Christmas.
DeleteI like your fun tradition ~ Merry Christmas to you as well ~
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas :-)
DeleteThat iron is amazing! And cool to make goals like that. I've often thought about getting a gaming console but not sure I would play it much. Reg hates the consoles but I am sure Tim is super happy! Love that you get each other such thoughtful gifts that are fun and will get used.
