I can imagine how you are looking forward to a respite from the cold and snow. A long but interesting drive, the smell of salt air and a comfortable space in which to stay. For what more could you clearly ask?!

Tomorrow I shall be preparing fruit to make a small and not too rich Christmas cake to give to our dear friends Ray and Kathy. They both have bad colds so a small item to cheer them both.  Christmas eve I shall be at St. G's again, for Shepherd's Pie and Angel cake, neither of which I can eat, then more Carols and a late Eucharist service.

David Moat, our Lay reader, who now lives in Almonte, has offered to drive me there and back home. For me, driving in the dark on quiet country roads is no longer sensible. He is not sure if Heather will come, some days her arthritis stops her easily moving. 

Ashley, from our old house, is coming in the afternoon, bringing Christmas cookies that she and the children have made from a special recipe. Bless them.

Now I'm wondering what do I cook for myself on Wednesday, maybe a pork tenderloin, so I must remember to remove it from the freezer.

An early night is required!

Take care.
