Hope everyone had a great Christmas.

The Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess and I hosted our families for a Christmas dinner. Last year we did away with the traditional Holiday meal to have a "Christmas with the Godfather" (Lasagne, pasta dishes, garlic bread, green salad, grappa, and Chianti). This year the theme was "Christmas with the Raja" (Dahl with lentils, lamb curry, tandori chicken, cucumber salad, and lots of naan).

We sang "Good King Wenceslas" as the F-H.C.A.G. accompanied us on the piano (which was a goal for her this Holiday season). We ate, drank, and made merry. The various gifts I had made were well recieved. Xena and Sinbad had a wonderful day. The evening ended with the F-H.C.A.G. and I dancing with Xena to Cream's "Tales of Brave Ulysses" (one can only listen to Christmas music for just so long). It was a marvelous day.

My lovely wife gave me a green heavyweight SWK (and some scotch ), my parents gave me two pairs of kilt hose, and from my mother-in-law received a beautiful pewter kilt pin with an amber stone.

Here is a couple of pictures of my new outfit:





The F-H.C.A.G.'s Holiday flair
