Happiest of Christmas Eves to each and every one of you, from Tall Tales Headquarters and the merchants of the downtown shoppes, who decorated their windows just for YOU (and me).
I do so love a window display. Almost as much as I love being able to go downtown and do my last minute shopping from local merchants. With nothing but a vague idea in mind, knowing I will find something that will be just perfect.
Meanwhile, as I wait for Santa to arrive I am just knitting away on this long tube with leftover yarn. It's going to be filled with something (maybe beans?), and be placed on the floor at the bottom of our north facing front door, to stop that draft that sneaks in when it's super cold and windy. I got the idea from a Kristin Nicholas book. She has a pattern for a beautiful one with tons of color that I want to make sometime. For now this one will do.
Presents are wrapped. The desserts we are taking to Christmas day dinner are halfway done. Chris is making shrimp pasta for supper, and some sort of silly holiday movie is on tap for tonight's entertainment. Just my kind of December 24th.
Ohhh Mom's favorite for Christmas Eve at your house: Shrimp Pasta by Chris. Wish I was there with you. And wishing upon a star that Mom would drop by.

One of my favorite things as a kid during Christmas was to go see the windows in the stores in downtown Chicago... something we don't see here in FL. Happy Holidays!!!!
