Charcuterie Boards & Hosting Christmas Gatherings

 


In the midst of the hustle-n-bustle of Christmas season, our home seems to be the place family and friends gravitate to. Day after day after day, we are hosting Christmas gatherings with different sets of family and friends.

Charcuterie boards, appetizers, and competition side-by-side cookoffs between David and I have being at home a warm and comfortable place in our hearts. 


We like being at home. We would rather be comfy at home, cuddled on the couch, binge watching shows, creating new recipes and cooking together, versus being out and about in busy stores and restaurants, especially when we are both good cooks in the kitchen. 

Our favorite drink this season is Southern Comfort Eggnog over ice with Peppermint Bark Rum Chata. 

More Christmas gatherings this week then we welcome the new year. I have to say 2021 has been a blessed and welcoming year. We embraced our sweet little Claire in the world and she is now 8 months old. I saw this sweet outfit for her and knew she needed it for Christmas. She is an absolute angel! 


David and I chose life together and we both gained a whole new family and new friends. Our congregation transitioned into a new and permanent home church. I had another record breaking year in my position as an events director. David joined the Bomb team this year, in addition to his current role, and he's loving the stimulation of learning something entirely new to his already extraordinary career. 

In the midst of an ongoing pandemic and a chaotic world, we are so blessed, and I for one, do not take that for granted even for a moment.
