As the new year has unfolded, I have been taking my time putting the Christmas decorations away and restoring order to each room in the house. It's nice to have the time to do this at a leisurely pace.
The charcuterie board above was a gift from my brother and sister-in-law. On New Year's Eve I made a pot of vegetable soup to go along with the delicious cheeses, nuts, dried fruits and salami.
Yesterday I was texting back and forth with my brother as they live in Los Angeles very close to the wildfires. He said they haven't been told to evacuate, but have a go bag in the car in case that becomes necessary. It is horrifying to see the videos coming out of that area of California. I can't even imagine how that must be for the people living through it and my heart goes out to them.
We have snow in our weekend weather forecast.
It's been years since we've seen any so I'm secretly hoping to see a pretty snowfall.
I'll keep you posted on that.
