Woohoo! Mead, fried honeycakes, mistletoe tea, corn dogs (gotta keep with the times, you know?).

I’ll pass on the wine, but everything else I shall partake in 🙂

…OK, so in some jurisdictions the authorities tend to get a bit uptight about people mating and/or building bonfires and/or sacrificing goats in the public park… so DO rent a venue that’s properly zoned for it…

…and a Happy Pagan Yuletide Wine Orgy Day to you all too! Now, if only my husband would GET UP. 🙂

There will be family and turkey and children and wine and stuffing and turkey and chocolate and fun later today. For now, I’m just waiting for him to GET UP!

(Never let him open his presents at midnight again… grumble, grumble…)
