Quiet 2021 Christmas

It was a very quiet Christmas for me again this year. Mees was very sick so the family gathering had to be canceled. There was a food swap so I have a very full refrigerator. 

Thinking back on last year during the major shut down, it wasn't so bad since Annie was still with me and I could be outside working on the yard.

I think this is the new normal of quiet holidays and limited. parties.  Made Mees jello and his favorite banana bread. My daughter said it was a Japanese tradition to have fried chicken on Christmas Eve which is something totally new to me. :) but I made it anyways for them. I'm hoping to score some fresh crab for New Years from a local fishing boat. Heard you have to get on his super secret list of customers since his fish store closed because Covid. Working on it!
