Get Fit
Did some Pilates with the resistance band. Keep the legs and back strong for lifting all those heavy gifts ans shoveling snow! Stay strong!!
Get Faith
Matthew 2:9 "(The Magi) departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was." I love that the star appeared to them in the east and led them to the baby Jesus so they could worship him. They traveled, actually for months. How far or how long would you travel to see the Christ child born to save you from your sins? Where is your church? It is the best place to be on Christmas. "Come let us Adore Him".
On this day
2001 Was a Sunday. Nicole went to Sunday School and Mom and I went to church, I was the reader. I always love reading in church, it is a special feeling for me to share the word of God. After church I ran to Kmart (which is now closing) and then went home to watch old family Christmas videos, wrap presents and then to the show to see Harry Potter with Nicole. We picked up Mom's cookies and gifts from her apartment on our way home, so she wouldn't have to bring them the next day on her own. A sweet memory of an earlier Christmas time.
1834 - English architect Joseph Hansom patented his 'safety cab', better known as the Hansom cab. So, not a handsome (good looking) cab as I believed. 😉
Ilulissat Greenland Christmas
Christmas Feast In Greenland
A magnificent feast is served on Christmas Eve that includes Greenland's best dishes. A huge Christmas cake is served along with homemade mulled wine as part of the feast. The 'suaasat' is a soup, which is a favourite dish among the people of Greenland. Other Christmas dishes include barbecued caribou and sushi. Berries and apples with crisp toppings are a popular dessert, served along with other dishes. 'Mattak' is a Christmas treat shared among the family. The 'Kiviak' is another Greenland specialty, which is actually an auk's raw flesh that is buried in sealskin for many months, until it is completely decomposed. hehe Sorry I had to share!
Enjoy the day! Make it memorable! Happy Birthday to Scott V.
