The best part of this weekend was :
:: Snow!!
:: News of a home birth on our road
:: Elfing fiddlehead mittens and peppermint bark
:: Hugging my Char whenever I wanted
:: Chilly marsh walks
:: Decorating our tree with ornaments from many childhoods
:: Finishing a cowl and beginning the fingerless (shush!)
:: The warm community in a winter farmers market
:: Picking rose hips in the cold sunshine
:: Thinking of friends scattered wide as I address their Christmas cards
:: Watching my sons, separated by nearly a decade, cuddling on the couch
:: The fact that it is only just beginning
:: #1 daughter full of so much creative good energy arrives tomorrow!
:: Sunday bread and soup at an (almost) fully set table
Butternut squash soup with cider cream
Holiday happiness all week
