christmas

My first Christmas in Boston. There was a lovely program on WCRB last night and I stayed in with my husband. I made djondjon rice with the recipe my mother emailed me, which is a Haitian delicacy made with a special mushroom that only grows in Haiti, as far as I know.

It’s my first Christmas away from my parents and family, so it’s strange. I was hoping for snow, but nothing t’all go so. We spent the day at my in-laws and it was lovely, and I guess I wasn’t away from family since they’re family, too, now. And we did visit with my family in Andover for a bit, though briefly.
