Funny how Christmas comes and goes. Christmas Lite begins the day after Halloween, which is when the stores start putting out the Christmas displays, and there aren't 12 days of Christmas but usually at least 30, the first actual day of Christmas being the day after Thanksgiving. And yet for as the long as the Christmas season is, I invariably find myself wondering on the night of December 25th how Christmas Day could have come so quickly and be over so soon. And now, as usual, I find myself musing over some of the random small, warm moments that made the season twinkle: The Wednesday before Christmas when the Panera Posse met at my house, ...some too beautiful to eat, ...but of course we scarfed them down way. ....as was the Christmas note-writing pads and colored pens my friend also gave them. From friends and neighbors gifts of home-made cookies and fudge, ...and the trays of cookies I likewise delivered. ...then the joy of watching them on Christmas morning. ...eating Christmas dinner at the Iron Chef Japanese Steak House.
Seasons greetings to all from Los Angeles!
