Here's our little Christmas tree - I managed to kill it by not watering it!
Christmas Day is more than half over in Australia and still 11pm Christmas Eve here. It's very strange - Christmas to me involves a BBQ, some cold ham and salad and a couple of beers, followed by a dip in the pool. The cold and the snow - plus the lack of people we know - makes it feel like it's not really Christmas. The Canadians all seem very happy that the forecast is for a clear, cold Christmas Day - no snow! We, on the other hand, are disappointed - I was hoping for a big snowfall so that we could go tobogganing in the park again (the snow's starting to get a bit patchy with so many people walking on it). So I guess Christmas will be white, but sort of a mushy sludgy white :)
Our Christmas plans are for roast beef and roast vegetables - roast potatoes, sweet potato, pumpkin, carrots and corn, with cornbread and Yorkshire pudding. And apple pie with ice cream for dessert. Should be good!
Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you have (or had) a great day, full of whatever traditions you enjoy!
