On the 6th Day of Yule...

Dec 26, 2009 10:48

Well the winter holiday season is almost over. New Year's is less then a week away. I hope everyone has been able to enjoy good food and better company, be it with friends, family or strangers.

This year was a bit different for me since I got to celebrate Yule on the solstice with my roommates. I then went to my parents' house on Xmas eve and spent Xmas with them, with K&K coming over for lunch yesterday as well.

Here at Cabin 52, the home of small chaos, we started with a Yule Cactus, that we named Fred. In fact Fred is not a real cactus, but a fang leaf Kalanchoe. I was still feeling nostalgic for a tree however and with a sale to benefit the Master Gardeners program here in my county I purchased a Colorado Blue Spruce that has been named Harold.

All in all it's been a good Winterfest for me, if I ignore the fact that I work for retail. Retail can really scrooge the holidays.

I will try to get pictures of both Fred and Harold.

Happy New Year to all of you my dear ones.
