Home. Mmmmm. Doesn't my mom make a cozy bed!? I spent a lot of time in that warm sunny spot, curled up reading books and fighting a chest cold. There was lots of snow in Maine...making it look like a picture-perfect Christmas card! Because we were all sick, it was a quiet, peaceful holiday, filled with books and good food. The way it should be I think. Here are some of our simple joys:* roast goose with Texas fruitcake stuffing (the latter a new invention on our part, and really quite delicious!)
* smoked Maine salmon
* a menagerie of sugar cookies sprinkled with colored sugar
* lots of tea
* sweet gifts exchanged with happy surprise
* and a few long winter naps!
I hope you too had a lovely holiday.

It was more of the same for us as well in Pittsburgh (without the snow) as we all had head-colds! Awful! I am jealous of all your snow!
What a beautiful, bright winter sky! Welcome back.
Your holiday sounds heavenly....Mine was in Grand Rapids, Michigan (home of the Gerald Ford Presidential Library, don't you know). Now is this Texas fruitcake stuffing a Blyberg family secret? so glad you're back! xo EEE
Miss you xo! Mom
Sounds lovely, except for the being sick part.
That does look like the coziest bed one could possibly imagine. And I agree with you . . . peaceful with books and good food sounds just about perfect.
