Merry Christmas to everyone! Mike and I had a nice visit to Michigan for a good dose of real winter weather. It was great to visit all of our friends and family up there. We returned to Chucktown a few days before Christmas and are enjoying these few weeks of being less busy than normal.
Other things that have happened recently:
-We visited Jigar and Lawren and baby Jake on our way up to Michigan. Whenever I get to see new babies, I just can't get over how tiny they are. Anyhow, they all seem to be doing well, and it was fun to see them.
-We also got to see lots of babies (and their parents) in Ann Arbor. All are doing well, and seem to be developing personalities of their own.
-We've been cooking a lot. Mike and I each got cookbooks for Christmas, and they are the good kind of cookbooks - the kind where you can actually see yourself cooking the recipes. I got "Mexican Everyday" by Rick Bayless and Mike got "How to Cook Everything Vegetarian" by Mark Bittman. We heartily recommend both books. Also, I got copies of some old family recipes and made my favorite Swedish Christmas rice for the first time.
-Christmas cookies were baked. Including some teensy little tiny ones.
-I've stocked up on wrapping paper for next year, but so far have managed to resist buying any clearance Christmas candy (despite several close calls).
Hope everyone has a healthy and happy new year!!!!
