All the old familiar faces have gathered from far and wide to celebrate the holiday. Laughter and conversation hugs and celebration are the theme of the night. Everyone brings a little something they have made to add to the feast. The apple pie moonshine was a special hit. The butterscotch dipped bacon was to die for. The young bloods stay late and shut the place down. The old timers hang in as long as they can letting their old ladies drive them home. All too soon the party comes to an end. For some it will be a year until we see them again. Everyone leaves full of good food and good cheer. LGR©12/14/14 |

This sounds so happy and cozy that it becomes poignantly beautiful, dear Lori. Christmas time should indeed be this. The gathering of families and the joy of old and young getting along. Gotta love those ladies driving their men home! Aren't we just as precious as diamonds! Wonderful, I enjoyed this so much, dear Lori. Love, Margherita  "Love is the One who masters all things; |

It was a good time! These are old friends of my husband. It does my heart good to see him walk around the room getting hugs from everybody! |

Ahhh . . . The yearly shindig. Good to hear things went well. You brought out all the good cheer with your poem. Dammit I'm Mad is Dammit I'm Mad spelled backward. |

Sounds like a good time was had by all, Lori. I have that recipe for apple pie moonshine, I think I'm going to have to try it now. Ida |
