We’re on the home straight now. Less than a week to go.

I worked today and ended up leaving a bit late because we had a couple of keen shoppers who didn’t seem to want to leave.

I was glad that I’d made chili in the morning. Mr Fixit cooked rice. After dinner he made his usual joke: “What’s for dessert?” We don’t have dessert very often, and I was the one who as a child was used to having dessert after dinner 6 days a week whereas Mr Fixit rarely had it. I’m the one with the sweet tooth. And yet he’s the one who’s regularly asking (only partly tongue-in-cheek) about it.

I hinted to ds3 that maybe it was time for our first batch of gingerbread cookies, a firm tradition in this house at Christmas.

So look what we enjoyed tonight! I love it when people get the hint. And I didn’t have to lift a finger.

My other evening pleasure has been knitflixing! Knitting and Netflix. Season 2 of The Witcher.

I have two days off now and a long To Do list which includes making a meal plan for the next 8 days. If you celebrate at this time of year I hope you’re having fun getting things ready and not stressing about it. See you again tomorrow.
