I got a visit from my brother-in-law last week who brought us some Christmas cheer! He brought over so many goodies from the in-laws - a ham, homemade chili, homemade tortillas, chocolate chip cookies, Russian tea cookies, and a favorite every Christmas, Ferrero Rocher Chocolates.
The chili was so delicious. It had a spicy kick to it. I made some fried eggs to go with it the next morning.
We had a very foggy day, which I love.
My son made another batch of croissants, and I topped them with butter and cranberry jelly.
Now, I've shown you the Pioneer wagon that's on main street in my town during the holidays, but I don't think I've ever shown you it covered in snow. I can just imagine traveling in that wagon in the cold snowy season during my favorite era.
I watched the movie, A Merry Scottish Christmas. These two played brother and sister back in the day in the popular series, Party of Five. A Merry Scottish Christmas was a feel-good movie, lots of joy, and celebrating some Scottish traditions.

I have to show you the Christmas market Nel went to this season with Mia. It was so fun! Lots of sparkly displays, carolers dressed in red and green velvet cloaks, yummy traditional foods and drinks like hot chocolate, mulled wine, Poffertjes (a Dutch dish of small, fluffy pancakes), and gingerbread. There was also artisan shops selling handmade trinkets.
My other babies were sick last week.....and Jess too.
But Francesca felt better over the weekend, and got to go to The Nutcracker with Mia.
My neighbor, F, brought over some homemade fudge. I was craving it, so was so happy to receive some this Christmas. It was such a thoughtful gift.
I've been having a nice Christmas season with magical snow to look at all around me. I can't believe how lovely these snow days have been here in the mountains.

This Eurasian Collared Dove came to visit me this Christmas.

The Lord has come!
Merry Christmas friends!
You are dear to me.

You've eaten such good things, it all looks so delicious.

Oh so many pretty festive photos! Starting with your granddaughters - so adorable. It’s always nice to see their smiling little faces!
I watched that movie last week! It was cute.
Love that beautiful photo of the dove - enlarge it and frame it! It’s gorgeous as well as the snow covered wagon.That could be a Christmas card!
The chili and eggs looks delicious. Must be a California thing - I like it too!
The snow looks magical. We’re looking at rain and you might be getting more snow. We’re thinking about driving up to Mt Shasta so Laydee can romp in the snow.
Love love love this time of year. We are so blessed to live in such a wonderful area.
Merry Christmas Neighbor! You are such a blessing and your blog is always a delight to read.
PS. Oy Vey on all the sweets! I’m already sick of sweets. I am craving BEEF. 🥩

I have always wanted to go to a Christmas Market, and this one looks like the best I have seen! I love the snow-covered wagon! Why is everything always so silent in the fog? I love it, too! Merry Christmas!
