Christmas at the Manor


We were thrilled to celebrate our first Christmas at the new Manor, complete with my first real Christmas tree in 19 years. We had a lovely 8 foot Douglas fir. It was interesting getting it upstairs, but well worth it.




We hosted a lovely cooperative family dinner with my sister and her family- Prime Rib, AuGratin potatoes with Artichokes, String Beans Almondine and Yorkshire Pudding-- followed by our traditional English Christmas Cake. Table settings were a gift from our good friend, Judith H.
