Fa-la-la-la-la

I've been challenged by a blogging friend who's a knitting fiend to post what I'm doing this week for the holidays. It's hard to get into the spirit with an ever-more expensive hole gaping at us from the ceiling (a mysterious drip-drip-drip has finally made itself known, soaking through sheetrock and all the rest). HOWEVER, I will rise to the challenge. My plans for holiday-ing it up:
1) Make/bake a batch of cookies.
2) Make a batch of fudge.
3) Collect unwanted/unused warm socks, mittens, gloves, scarves, jackets, long underwear etc. from the closets and bring 'em to church on Dec. 24 for "Gifts of Warmth." The items will be handed out to those in shelters and those who are homeless.
4) Listen to all kinds of holiday music REALLY LOUD. Look out, guys in tricked-out cars and booming bass speakers. I plan to blast my way into your sound-space with "Hark the Herald Angels Sing."
.... The other challenge my friend set out was to describe what my character would do for the holidays. Hmmm. What would Inez do? I shall think on that, and report back...
