Our family tries to do something special for the solstice, and most years we manage something fun.
Plans sometimes change, and this year due to the snow we won’t visit my parents. We’ll celebrate with them another day.
Here’s what we are planning:
Roast turkey, rice dressing and a fennel and potato side dish (inspired by the lovely Hetty). Pie for dessert — maybe a cheesecake, but we also still have some squash that would make a nice pie. And pecans…
Sing songs.
Play games — board games as well as Wii games (new pinball game for the stidkid’s bday last week).
Read.
Watch TV — the last Seahawks game coached by Holmgren is tomorrow.
Try to put a few more things away and locate my passport for the trip I am taking the elder stidkid on this next week. It’s “somewhere.”
