Merry (Belated) Christmas!

What a great Christmas we had this year. Of course, we had an obscene number of presents for the kids and family, but it's so hard to curb one's enthusiasm when it comes to Christmas. Sarah's big gift was a digital camera, and Danny's was a remote control front-end loader with plastic rocks.

Dinner was wonderful - we had Peppercorn Seared Beef Tenderloin with Merlot-Shallot Sauce, Mashed Potatoes, the Trader Joe's Brittany Blend veggies, Baked Onions with Sage and Gruyere, and lots of desserts and stuff. My brothers even seemed to like it! The most gratifying thing in the world for me is to see everyone eating what I made and liking it. Sweet bliss.

So, now it's on to my HUGE list of things that I was procrastinating on in order to prepare for the holidays. Hanging curtains, building shelves, making some office curtains. Aaargh.
