Here are my new Wellies and three of Zoe’s four handmade and designed booties, made by Margie (Jim’s mother). The fourth bootie was in Jim’s car, as I brought it to a Christmas Eve gathering. No, she won’t wear them.
Dee and Zoe's Boots
Hope you’ve enjoyed the day! I’m off to check the oven. Dinner in an hour. Cheers! Dee

We’re on our own this year, with frigid temperatures and no new snow. I’ll make breakfast, of course, bacon and eggs and probably biscuits, tea and juice.
For dinner I ordered a rack of lamb. I plan to make a paste of garlic, thyme, rosemary and olive oil and let it marinate for a while before cooking it in a hot oven. Scalloped potatoes will be made and served, as well as baby carrots and green beans. As for an appetizer, I made some of Jim’s parents picked and shelled TX pecans for a party last night and our home still smells like curry! Dessert will be pastry chef Mary’s cookies.
We’ll probably see Avatar or another movie this afternoon, and make Zoe wear her new green velvet jingle bell collar for a while. Zoe doesn’t need a gift, she has new boots from grandma! I’ll take a picture when it’s light out and I have all four booties together. Margie designed them after my Hunter wellies of the same color. Along with Jim’s lined bathrobe that he loves, she made me a “keyboard cozy” of embellished denim, to keep dust off my keyboard.
Perhaps I’ll play a few Christmas songs for Jim on piano and/or guitar when he awakens much later this morning. Two hours ’til dog walking time. Perhaps a nap is in order. Merry Christmas!
