christmas eve 2020 (2)

This Christmas Eve was mostly about food. Because hey, what else was there to do? My Instagram “memories” have been trolling me this past week or so, showing me photos of happier Christmas times with friends, both here and in Málaga. But of course none of that was possible this year. So I decided to just enjoy making some great food and, since I am still not having people over to my house, share it with my friend Peter, who was happy to come over and pick up a take-away of everything, including some panattone, beer and palo cortado sherry (in the green salad dressing bottle). The menu was slow braised Ibérico pork cheeks in oloroso with sides of roasted potatoes, roasted veg (carrots, sweet onion, purple onion, whole garlic heads, endive) and my now EXPERT Yorkshire puddings. Simple and delicious. How was your Christmas Eve?

That lump under the chair cover is Morcilla. Luna is using her as a hot water bottle. Or it may be the other way around. Sisters, eh?

tree

Here it is… my first Christmas tree in over 28 years. Well, as I told you yesterday, it’s not really mine. Although this is my fourth Christmas in this Casa Az it’s the first time my downstairs neighbour has put up a little tree in the entrance, and I love it. I’ve been told it’s not “finished” yet and am intrigued to see what will end up on it next. Maybe I should add some tinsel?

UPDATE: As you can see, more decs have been added as promised though still not sure if this means it is “finished”. Also noticed that the ornaments still have price tags attached. Ummm…

very special christmas

So it’s now just 15 days until Christmas! For many it’s just another day. For others it’s an excuse to travel abroad to visit family and kill other people because you couldn’t just NOT DO THIS in the exact same way for just one year. Still others (like you and me!) are looking forward to enjoying the holiday season and celebrating it in our own way. And so rather than complain about all the Covidiots out there (for a change), I thought it would be nice to talk about how we have been adapting to the changes thrown our way this past year and, especially, how we are going to celebrate this very special Christmas.
