A typical winter's holiday week day!

It's winter, the temperature was cold and the wind was howling - a quite brutal day! Brutal enough that when my car told me that I have a tire pressure issue, I was not about to tackle it today. If it's not flat - then I don't need to touch it!

We did some food shopping for our limited company that will be coming New Year's Eve and we ate out for lunch.

We climaxed the day by having some friends come over for a few hors dourves, some wine, and, most of all - good conversation. No better way to spend a cold winter's night.

Tomorrow two of the grandchildren will be here most of the day as my grandson begins work on his Christmas vacation project.

After a day like today, please tell me again why winter in New England is so beautiful...
