Season's Greetings
Coming down to the wire - I still don't have a Christmas tree, although the artificial sort are half price at the hardware store. I have been both ecologically torn, and seething with the thought of having a permanent Patriot Act, rather than sending cards to the far flung. I can temporairily refocus now that I know it was only renewed for a month. Go Democrats!
I will be whipping up Beef Wellington, inspired by listening to "Appetite for Life". I shall not use Julia Child's recipe, nor her butcher, though he has sent me a notice that beef tenderloin at his place is a steal at only $39.99 a pound.
The least I can do is to begin my Christmas Photo Festival, and join with all the folks at Symphony Hall to send a merry snowflake out into the electronic universe.
Photo note: This is really Symphony Hall.
