Christmas is finally here and there is a calm that descends as this magical season culminates in today’s celebrations. It is my sincerest hope that you enjoy a peaceful, loving, and healthy holiday how ever you choose to celebrate. Today, there are mismosas with breakfast, presents to open, fondue for dinner, followed by egg nog around the fire pit and then, a movie marathon of the ‘Thin Man’ series from the 1930s. But first, I need coffee. Let me leave you with some holiday cheer courtesy of my darling dog.

Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad, Joyeux Noel, Fröhliche Weihnachten, and God Jul.
