There was no White Christmas to be found in my corner of VA this year. We did have sunny warm weather and mild breezes. We turned off the heat and opened the doors and windows. At one point this week it was 70-ish. It was really quite nice. On Sunday, we didn't even wear jackets to church!
It's hard to ask for a White Christmas when the weather's so nice at 2 AM on Christmas morning that you're outside, barefoot, in your jammies. That was beautiful.
We had a wonderful gf feast this year, too.
Standing rib roast (aka prime rib) with a red wine marinade/ au jus sauce
Mashed potatoes
Green beans
Ceasar salad
Bread (regular stuff for everyone else)
Cookies (gf and regular)
Yummy, yummy tasty goodness. We lit candles, got down the fine china, and sat down to a sumptuous feast in the comfort of our jammies. The nice thing about staying home for Christmas was that no one minded!
Hope you all are having a fun Christmas with your family, too. Onward now to our White Random-Day-In-January! Hopefully the long-range forecast is right!

When you're outside in your jammies at 2 in the AM on Christmas Day, I'm thinking you're taking this Santa thing too seriously. :)
Um... did he show up? I... you know... just wondered.
Thanks for all the great gluten tips! I figured two weeks was a little optimistic for much improvement. I just hope it works!
The meal sounds delicious, I wish that they all could be that good!
Sounds like a great Christmas
