Merry Christmas!

Please find below a link to our Christmas Story, "The Best Gift of All."

And please meet Larry, our Christmas 'Gator, brought to you via email from Tara (Feeney) Lyman, Chris's first love.

Tara lives in Florida when she isn't cruising around the world exploring new countries, and we keep in touch regularly.

Maybe some day I can get her to come out and visit, and if she does I promise to cook for her and show her around, too--

Meanwhile it's been 75 degrees on the porch during the day for weeks now, and in the high 40's overnight, so we're still getting fresh cherry tomatoes--although they're slowing down somewhat now--maybe only 20 or fewer a day.

Oh yeah, MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: we're going to stop trying to correct our own grammar and spelling from memory using nothing but an aging (although still fully-oxygenated) brain so LOOK FOR CORRECT GRAMMAR and PUCTUATION in the future, especially IF I APPLY FOR A WRITING JOB WITH YOU and provide a link to this website asinfor my resume.

It's been a wonderful journey, but with our accelerated compositioning of more and more stuff and thinking about maybe having to hire a freaking proofreader, we've decided to purchase and use Grammerly, like every other professional, and commit to properly and confidently proofing our entire oeuvre over time.

And Chris has accepted admitting to himself a personally perplexing and annoying anomaly in his past vagaries in the use of quotation marks and parentheses at the end of sentences(".") or not.

Don't work too hard, and Thank God for global warming (just kidding, Lord!)!

Enjoy!
