So there we all are at Christmas.. my family. The Family. It is kinda weird because we all don't actually talk to each other much during the year but at this time of year we all get together to sit and drink and talk. My parents, the godmother, my sister (the other one never comes) and my neices with -so far- one boyfriend and of course, my son.

I made egg-nog and antipasto and there were cold meats and salads and much beer and stuff. it was all very good. As usual I didn't bring presents because I feel that it spoils the whole "Christmas" thing. I think it should just be for family and gathering and such. I did get my son a gift and he got me one (fabulous! Sopranos seasons 3 and 4) and my parents did the usual thing and got me bottles of booze. I don't actually drink often so they will go into the cupboard in the kitchen with the other ten bottles. Nice thought though.

It was all very nice and everyone had fun and that is kind of odd because most years we all kind of pretend to but never actually talk about anything. I liked this years' Christmas, I hope you did too.

                                        Merry Christmas everyone.
