So. No gifts, no parties. No big dinner. No pants until at least 3 p.m.

Undoubtedly, the best christmas at my house ever. Seriously. I didn't get out of bed till 11. And then I took a nap at 2:30. We did basically nothing all day. For lunch/dinner/whatever meal one eats at 4 p.m., I made phyllo-wrapped beef and feta turnovers. These turned out to be extremely tasty, despite the fact that I more or less made up the recipe to use up stuff that was in the fridge. Called mom, she was like "What did you do today?". Nothing. And it was everything I hoped it would be.

Hope you all are having a happy holiday, too. :)

I love "do-nothing" holidays. I need them more often. I didn't get one this time, but I did have a lovely, low-stress holiday.

I only went to a mall ONCE all season - and during that time, I only bought some loose-leaf tea for myself. I bought some stuff online, kept the gifts simple, thoughtful, and PRACTICAL, and did most of my in-person shopping by random sorts of "oh, she'd like that!" moments.

I didn't do any cooking, but I was invited to a friend's house for a pagan lesbian Christmas lunch yesterday, drove to my in-laws' house last night, and we're waiting for the turkey to be cooked in my mother in-law's oven now. I'm wearing pajamas. Can't complain!

I think I'll have another cup of tea. :)

See you around!
