I saw the same video. 😂 They was some wind! Brookings is just about on our southern border with California. Where we go windsurfing is about an hour’s drive north of there. It’s such a quaint little town where normally snowmen would not fight at all. In fact, real snowmen would most likely melt, if you could even build one. It rarely snows there.

I used to love eggnog when I was a little girl, but now I’m not a fan of it. Another Dutch tradition is advocaat, a Dutch eggnog that is richer and creamier in flavor. My great grandma would stand for long periods of time at the stove, stirring it as it cooked. It’s often served with brandy, but I like mine without it.

Sending Merry Christmas Eve hugs! We are heading to my parents’ house, as we are celebrating with them this year. My mom had a hip replacement almost two weeks ago, and Dad was able to finally bring her home from her rehab facility just yesterday. I’m so excited to see her! I hope all of you you and your families have a very blessed Christmas! 💖🤗🐶🤗🎄
