Post Xmas Cookies
Too much dough, not enough time, so we made some.. Christmas vacation cookies. Still the same dough problems – no structure! But flavor was spot on thanks to the special vanilla confectioners sugar. And yes, everyone washed their hands.. A LOT.

Boxing Day
Went to a Christmas lights show the day after – and with snow on the ground, who is complaining (ok, you can guess who).. Some pics of Winter Lights up in Stevens-Coolidge House. Lots of really great light installations – from strings to floods to everything else. Especially cool with some snow on the ground.

The big eve
Above, the terrible breath. We’ll call it caroling! And then there is the tracking. The impatient wait. The (kick ass) salad. And the sound and lights! (Gotta view the post here to see video). And yes, there’s a outdoor speaker blaring Christmas music for several days here.. its very tame for Xmas Eve though.

Miscalculated Cookies
Tried to put a spin on the crescent cookies – by going gluten free for Kim. Little did I realize, these things would not hold their form very well. So the crescents became.. blobs. Delicious blobs, at least. Just not good enough to share – next year!

A Night At The
Orchestra. Too bad it wasn’t the opera – but probably good that it wasn’t! Kim got the 4 of us tickets to the Boston Symphony Orchestra’s Christmas show. Lots of good Christmas spirit there.. and a nice location for some Boston views.

Tis the Season
Christmas decor, Legos, catalogs, candy.. not pictured – the music. Actually that was probably not in season yet in the house. Radio, different story. Humbug!!
