Since Ed’s bachelor party was on Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, we missed out on having a thanksgiving feast with our friends, so we are making up for it tonight.
I love that we can throw together an impromtu dinner party at Trondee’s house in a matter of days and it is always a good time!
I will be truly sad when these dinners go on hiatus during Chress’ and Trondee’s adventures abroad. But I know that when we all reconnect it will be just the same 🙂
After the Santa Claus Parade, it becomes acceptable to start thinking about Christmas. The city starts to be illuminated with bazillions of lights, the Bay windows are unveiled, the Christmas music is playing in the malls.
I was excited yesterday to remember that with Christmas, comes coffee places adding Christmas flavours into hot chocolate. The best is still Second Cup peppermint white hot chocolate, but I am always game to try new ones. And last night I had the gingerbread hot chocolate at Tim Horton’s, it was “interesting”, both mom and Jon seemed delighted by the strange concoction.
Additionally, I love Christmas flavoured ice creams too. Even though I just want one bowl of it. And Ed always groans and moans when I get excited about the newest release. I do truly like the peppermint fudge crackle from President’s Choice, but I agree that one year I had an eggnog one, it was in there till June.
YEAH Christmas flavourings!!!!
I can feel myself rising up from my bridal brain mush, like a newlywed phoenix. There were a great few months spent thinking only of red and aqua details, entertaining our guests and throwing the best damn wedding we could afford!
Now I am ready for the next challenges and details that will occupy that brain space.
As I re-charged my i-pod this morning, I realize that I need a new set of running music to get me back to full force. And with that energy, I hope that soon there will be no looking back from the next whirlwind adventure.
p.s. I will be writing about the honeymoon diary soon enough
