first efforts: Vintage Christmas

Vintage Christmas

When two full-fledged adults combine households, you learn stuff. For example, my beloved and I were excited to discover that both of us have some very old ornaments passed on to us by our parents. I put a dozen or so of them on a tiny tabletop tree in our dining room, where they look very cool and vintage-y.

Happy and merry to you and yours.

What a lovely photo!

Now enough of this "happy and merry" talk.

What I want is some of your expert opinion on a certain (and widely circulated today, as far as I can tell) photo of a certain president-elect on vacation. Thoughts?

I'm too full of xmas cheer to comment substantively, but rest assured, I will. Until then, two URLS for you all:

This week in local eating

6.4.10: From our garden, we're eating chard, greens, radishes, strawberries, and heaps of herbs. At the farmer's market we're buying the usual: eggs and lots of goat cheese.
