I LOVE this time of year! Right when October (Halloween) is winding down and Thanksgiving and Christmas are on the way.
A fairly new tradition (well 3 years now) Nick and I have for Thanksgiving is Nick cooking up some Cornish game hens with all the trimmings (it is great- like your own personal turkey) - and I am in charge of the dessert. This year I am going to make a spiced cherry crisp ^o^ My tummy is already rumbling...Of course one of my new favorite things is EGG NOG! (With a little brandy sometimes) I never had even plain egg nog as a kid, but now I overindulge in it every Thanksgiving/Christmas. But hey it is only 1-2 moths of the year :P
Right after Thanksgiving I like to decorate for Christmas- and that is when I start up the Christmas music and movies too. Not to mention that is when the goodies start to come out- or when I start thinking of making 'em. I am especially eager to make sugar cookies and a small gingerbread house this year.
For Major I usually make a Thanksgiving or Christmas theme treat. Which he just loves!
For me when I think of Christmas I think of being curled up on a nice soft couch or bed with my love, covered in a fuzzy blanket, sipping hot chocolate, watching a Christmas movie, with the snow falling outside and the lights twinkling on the tree.....cozy...of course I am usually missing the snow- living in this warmer climate :)
But I am happy just to be with the one I love!
