    Alan, you'd better start speaking or the New Yorkers are taking over. Oh that's right, you were born there too.

    HoHoHo and Chanukah, too!

    Well, here I am on the Texas prairie......
    Christmas tree lights abound and a mouthfull of sugar free Chanukah Macaroons (yuk! where's the wine!)
    Wishing all good cheer and a brand new PD ruler this year we won't use to stir the coffee!

    My little goya Alan

    I have a nice California Meritage from Napa or a Santa Ynez Chardonney. I cannot testify to whether they are Kosher but they sure are good.

    You're killing me. I LOVE egg nog but, have been holding myself back this year....(like 5 lbs of fudge is better for me?!?). But, the white wine, I will have!

    Actually I'm still at work. ARe you guys? THis is my late night.

    Are you both from New York? You're smart that you've moved someplace sunny. It is gray here. We got nearly a foot of snow last weekend and a few more inches these past few days. It is wet, heavy, sloppy snow. Yuck.

    So hard to dress up for a Christmas Party...you know with a skirt and heels...and then have to trudge through that mess.

    Did you know this is our 16th anniversary. And, as I gaze upon your prettyness here in the glow of our party....you haven't aged a bit.
    For all of you who will be saying high to Laurie C......she's a little on the quiet side tonight. The ol chords are pooping out from caroling, errr the flu or something. Feel better...have some eggnog...it works.

    Okay pouring some nice Foley Chardoney for Hip Chic while wearing a particularly lovely silk lounge set from Lord and Taylor. I am at home but have been working from there all day. Yes I am from NY and about every other year open our place there due to work issues. Alan my darling how sweet of you to remember our anniversary. I'll never forget that first fight in the middle of PLCU

    I moved in to my new home a few weeks ago. I am looking forward to preparing a nice Christmas Eve dinner for family. I love to cook. Love to experiment with new recipes. Christmas will be another gathering, probably at my Dad's house.

    This Saturday, I have a Christmas party to go to at a friends house...festive attire required. It will be fun.

    Then I will crash. I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. Too much at once. Closing on a house and moving at this crazy time of year...what was I thinking? And all that shopping....I can't wait to get back to real life.

    I don't mean to complain....I'm not really. Life is VERY good....despite the snow!

    wade a minit....hold it.....

    So, what's wrong with a little Manischewitz?
    It's full of antoxidents, too, ya know. Maybe it doesn't have that bouquet, and, maybeeee . . . you don't let it breath.
    But, when push comes to shove . . . a DUI is a DUI!

    Alan

    I will call Jim and tell him to pick Manashevitz up on the way home and naturally I would never dream of a DUI, God invented taxis, limos and designated drivers for people like me, please see my post on being PC Incorrect

    On that note . . . .

    23 people piled out of a Christmas party and got in cabs and limos. One guy waddles out in a stupor, fumbles with the keys, gets in his car and starts to drive. Officer Muldoon stops him and tells him to get out.
    He sees the guy is perfectly calm and sober, walks a stright line and all. Officer M says what's the situation with you?
    He says:

    "I'm the token decoy!"
