SOLSTICE GREETINGS
I am totally wasted - 6 kinds of Christmas cookies in one day will wreck the back, the feet... and tomorrow is worse. Many hours will be spent, rolling out hundreds of gingerbread and sugar cookies. I do the work, my mom will make frosting, my sister... is making lunch. Everybody wins.
The day is gone now but I wanted to wish everyone Happy Solstice! Mother Nature celebrated by coating our brown earth with a very pretty, heavy coating of sparkling snow. It was gorgeous but the rain underneath must have made for a nasty rush hour drive home, and it's already melting. Global warming sucks.
On a more entertaining note: listen to the sad but beautiful Celtic Christmas III (Windham Hills a few years ago). I think it's Solstice music for Middle Earth! The last peace, an Irish Gaelic lament, must have influenced Howard Shore.
Goddess bless, for those of the right persuasion, Happy Channukah to other people, and to everyone else: hope your shopping is finished!
Love to all,
T'Amara
