Greetings from the Emerald City, where we are celebrating Christmas
with our son and daughter-in-law in their new home, and staying as guests in the Quisenbnb! Their place is modern and sleek and
full of promise, just like they are (my husband and I feel invigorated in their
presence)! They have worked hard over the past few months to put their unique
and artistic stamp on their home, reflecting who they are, and providing both sanctuary and a welcoming atmosphere. Here we
pass the torch to the next generation – enjoying family traditions passed down
through the years, and starting new ones.

The house is decorated, the tree is trimmed, and the
stockings are hung. Sweet and savory aromas waft from the kitchen, and the holiday
music collection ranges from sacred to contemporary to jazzy. Gifts are appearing
under the tree (more are being wrapped in other rooms—you can hear the crinkling
paper and barked orders - “don’t come in”!). Hot chocolate and egg nog are on
the menu, as well as pie and molasses cookies. A puzzle, games, and Netflix
have been discussed as possible activities, along with outings to Alki Beach Park, the Seattle Museum of Art, and the Space Needle.
