To everyone:

Merry Christmas!

Things went rather well--we had a nice Christmas dinner of a somewhat non-traditional Salmon with Creamy Dill Sauce because I am sick of turkey, with Sunday Dinner Mashed Potatoes (by request), a tossed salad, sautéed yellow squash, and 24-Hour Salad.

Rochelle, thank you for the cheesecake, we enjoyed it very much.

Ravyn, your gift arrived in time, thank you very much. It will go to good and tasty use!

Now the day after Christmas, we can sit back, relax, eat leftovers, and cheer for the Saints. May you all have a happy Yule season!

I realise I'm a tad late putting this up, but better late than never. Also, it's incomplete; I'll be adding to it as I think of stuff. I always remember things when I'm miles away from any chance to write it down.

For the benefit of friends and relatives who wonder what to get me, here's some ideas:
