Starry Starry Night

There wasn’t much eating yesterday or today. After the show Tom went to the kitchen to prepare the glaze for the ham, I ran out for some last-minute shopping. ML had been in the kitchen most of the day working on a gluten-free cake. 


After making a huge mess in the kitchen I spent the evening alone cleaning up. It was pretty late when I finished mopping. I went outside on the deck to look at the cold December sky, my favorite skies all year. The stars were plentiful and bright as they usually are these evenings, and I couldn’t help but wonder about that special star in the dark sky so very long ago.


May all of you in the nomenu family have a blessed holiday season. You are beloved.
