we enjoyed:

• great conversation
• honey-baked home
• christmas music
• homemade dinner rolls
• laughing and giggles
  
• CREAMY mashed potatoes (loaded with cream cheese, sour cream, heavy cream and butter)
• a crackling fire
• caramelized green beans and pearl onions
• girl talk under the covers
• apple tart
• football
• pomegranate salad
  
• dreams of grandeur of couples cruises and group vacations
