Even though there was a bit of a snowstorm Saturday afternoon, we had one more person left to see on the east coast…

…I had a snack en route.

A visit to see Poom…

…and her little dog too!

Back home in time for one last dinner with Mom…

…Turkey Casserole + a stir fry of everything from the last week…

…plus the addition of Mantou.

Best way to prep these – brown ‘em in olive oil, then use water to cover/steam.


Abe and I picked up some firewood and berries on the way back from Poom’s – I had a few with my Godmother’s cookies, a piece of Almond Roca…

…and this Chinese Peanut Candy.

Still craving sweets! A handful of dried fruit (raisins, blueberries, and prunes) before bed…

…along with a cup of Turkey Soup.

Made it through the storm, and my first Holiday without Dad.

Making it through your first holiday without your dad is no small thing. XX
