Cookie Delivery

24 December 2011 | French harbor Roatan
Rainy
We took the results of our Holiday baking and delivered plates of Cookies and crunchies to the local cruisers anchored here in French Harbor.
We dressed in our Santa hat for me and raindeer antlers for Connie then went out in the rain (it had lessened but not stopped) and delivered some Christmas wishes and cookies to our new friends here in Roatan. I should go on record here as saying that the world famous crunchies are not actually Connies but my sister Sue's recipe. I have no idea how good they are this year as I have a temporary crown that may not stand up to a crunchy.
Connie is preparing our traditional Christmas feast which we are going to eat tonight as there is a buffet tomorrow. We have a turkey, yams, and green bean casserole including onion rings for the top. Tonight will be a more traditional Christmas movie like Holiday Inn with Bing Crosby.
We were unable to send out any Christmas cards this year (last year we were in Nashville for the birth of Owen so we sent them then, but there is no Postal system here nor do we have any cards.) For friends and family who read the blog you know what has been happening to us. But I miss the Christmas letters especially the humorous ones that tell us what all of you have been doing, so if you have an email version of your Christmas letter send it to us at our gmail account.
Have a Merry Christmas to all
