"Vacation" has a funny ring to it during this pandemic.
1. So this Happened
One of my family's traditions during this season is a series of baked goods that my mom makes and now, as we've all grown and moved further away than down the hall, mails to us. She sends family recipe biscotti, other cookies on occasion, and a wonderful treat we call "cheesies."
Cheesies are like cookies, but they're made from cheese and flour instead of sugar and flour. I was making dinner one night, removed one from the just-arrived package, and warmed it up on the lid of a saucepot. Babygirl came into the kitchen to "help" as she usually does, and so I let her try the cheesie.
She promptly shoved the entire thing into her gob:
And since the weather generally helps out on these capers, we should be going more often.
On this day, sometime before the 25th, we frolicked and cavorted, without our masks, and for a few minutes it seemed like a regular December day when adults don't have to work and the world is carefree.
That's...unfortunately not the case in our year 2020 (5502 MHs), but sometimes we can fool ourselves.
I need to do this.... We can get out and drive to some close but different part of the area get out walk around a bit look at the plants and such and then return home...Vinnie could use a change in scenery too
