Aw, DG you know how to make a boy smile :) I've been meaning to tell you that the tree is up at the Capitol and it looks stunning. We just need a light dusting of snow and we'll be in full holiday mode. Even the workers at the dreaded Capitol Hill post office were in a cheery mood - next thing you know the stoplights will be blinking a bright red and green!
Morning BT. Glad to hear that Capitol Hill is cheery...I'm sure it's from all the drinking they do.
The drinking definitely helps the cheeriness! That, however, is not unique to the Hill.

A dusting of holiday decor and cheer can make anyplace or anything beautiful. I'd love to see the old Smithsonian building decorated for the holidays again
Morning, all!
Just booked my tickets for Liza Minnelli in February. Yippee!!
Morning Addy. It sounds like from what I read last night on this thread that "Little Women" is not one of the shows to run out and see.

Sutton Foster is worth seeing. And the show tries really hard. It was just missing something... I would not say to stay away from it - it was a lovely evening. But, I wouldn't say to run to your local ticket office, either. Unless you are a Sutton fan, in which case I say RUN!
Good morning Addy! I just booked tickets to a meet and greet with Carol Channing in April at the McCarter in Princeton. I can't wait to see her again.
It's amazing how quickly 2005 is booking up...
good morning, everybody!!! it's a BAKING weekend!!! yippee!!!

Joey - this is one of those moments that I REALLY regret being on the opposite coast
Joey - a baking weekend sounds divine!!! I didn't get a chance to really decorate or bake this year. If you want to send a few dozen cookies south, I'll give you my address I've heard those snickerdoodles are legendary and they are a family favorite!
I will be in PA this weekend celebrating Christmas with my sister and her family. I'm staying over Sunday night because my niece has a solo in the Christmas Festival at their church, so I want to be there.
I'm looking forward to a loving, traditional, family-filled weekend with no chores! And LOTS of Aunt Addy time!
Oh Addy, just add some chestnuts roasting on an open fire and you have a picture perfect weekend planned! I get uncle BT time next weekend and I cannot wait!!!!
DG and BT, i haven't really decided what i'm making yet... i made a quick gingerbread last night, and i know redhot wants to try this fruit tart recipe also... we'll see!
Morning jj..Mmmmm gingerbread.
Addy..this weekend sounds divine....family and Christmas..what could be better???
BT, it's what the holidays are all about.
Boobs, it's just another holiday scent to add to the house, since we are without the christmas tree pine-y smell this year...

"i made a quick gingerbread last night" - the nonchalance of statements like that cracks me up! I know my way generally around a kitchen, but the concept of making a 'quick gingerbread' is out of my repetoire. My hat is off to you, good sir
Time to run gang. I hope to see you all on tonight or at least over the weekend. I feel a cold coming on..just what I need for the Holidays...yuk !!!
Bye, Boobs. Take care of yourself!! No getting sick for Christmas... Have a good day.
DG, don't be too impressed... it was out of a box...
