Happy New Year. December was wonderful, except for the floods that brought massive destruction affecting many that I know too. At our home, it was a restful December. I did finally take the opportunity to catch up with close friends over outings and food.  In between, we baked gingerbread cookies, watched family movies together, shared songs on spotify, played more board games, read more books, checked out different restaurants and went on short trips.
The highlight I guess, was a week's getaway to the highlands with close friends. It was lovely to get away from the city, to breathe in crispy fresh, cold air, watch the morning dew on flowers, catch beautiful sunrises and sunsets, laugh, play silly games.

Danelle and I made these together,
she being the perfectionist arranged them neatly in rows.

Jo and I made this. She of course made the beautiful
pandas, while I have no patience with
food decoration. So the ugly pink alien
in front and all the ugly lumpy 'tang yuan'
were made by me. 


                             



Some new year goals: Take more nature photos, paint more, write music, continue to keep fit, family time and bonding. Hopefully some travel, get back to some letter writing and journaling, tidy up the garden that's become a jungle!
