winter solstice

the days have been very warm again. it doesn't feel like winter is coming even though it is the solstice, and even though the days have been very grey and very dark.

we've been baking and cleaning: dusting, vacuuming, doing laundry, sorting, straightening and ironing.

 when they both went off in the afternoon (one to a dance class, the other to babysit) i finished baking the biscotti and rolling the french chocolates and then started dinner and worked on a secret knitting project.

 the secret knitting project is hidden in the bag. i hope i finish it. it's not a difficult task, it's just difficult to find time.

 a pic of the tree with it's "skirt."

 dinner . . i never know what to make anymore. i'm always happy when the girls have a suggestion that i like. this evening chanda suggested salad and lentil soup and i added a parmigiana heel and ditalini pasta that i had on the shelf.

morgana's wreath that she made for the door with the greens from the christmas tree farm. it' s so nice to have a fresh wreath up.
