[Magdalen] Happy Christmas.

[Molly Wolf]

Son Ross and I just feasted on prime rib, butternut squash, scalloped potatoes, and fudge sundaes, all outstandingly good.  Tomorrow son John and my lovely daughter-in-law Sabra will join us for the Remains of the Joint plus Yorkshire pudding.  

Merry Christ-mass, amici!
Molly

Son Christopher has made a winter squash & kale salad, with pepitos (pumpkin seeds painstakingly shelled). Thomas is now making something from mashed potatoes & rutabagas (Gilfeather turnips, which are actually rutabagas). Sautéed green beans also. And finally a pumpkin pie from Winter Luxury pumpkins. All veggies are from the garden.
