CHRISTMAS EVE

today is christmas eve... a very exciting day to be with family etc. unfortunately this year my family is very spread apart. my dad is at work right now, my pop pop is in his nursing home, my grandmom is in a nursing home, my sister is in georgia, nicole is in kville and other various cousins and aunts and uncles are at their respective homes. either way we're going to make the best of it, but it just doesn't feel like it used to. we used to have all our aunts and uncles and cousins and grandparents at our house with piles and piles of food and enough cookies and pies to make you sick (or my dog sick because she would jump up on the table when no one was looking and eat them). this year it's just not like that... i'm still glad to be hom but just wish i could spend it with everyone we used to.

in any event, here is our attempt at these delicious vegan cookies that were really really good:

not christmassy at all, but it just kind of sucks... and kind of funny at the same time... but not really


we pretended to buy a tree from these guys just to get a few pictures but didn't work at all, they were not having it. so they sent 'joe the cutter' after us to tell us about the trees.


got harassed about douglas firs right after this...

either way... i hope everyone has a great holiday... whatever you're celebrating, have a great one...
