What South Bend, Mishawaka and Osceola are talking about this week:
Although back in Chicago now, most of the weekend was spent with family in Indiana ... and clearly everyone there was talking about Christmas. [The local paper did, however, have a warning about how the vicious game of "Knockdown King" was spreading throughout the midwest ... but that's really a downer on the holiday spirit, so I'll save that bit o' news for another day (and the link is below, for those who want to be in-the-know regardless).] It was great catching up with all (pics to show up sometime sooner than seven months from now as I did for most of 2011 [except for the traditional shot of Dolly's butt mid-Christmas-cookery, as I've agreed that's now just for family and never to appear on FB -- so if you're family and you want an autographed copy, hit me up privately]).
In all seriousness and in the words of one of my favorite songs of the season (covered by so many great artists):
May the new year be blessed with good tidings ... 'Til the next time I see you again ... If we must say goodbye ... Let the spirit go with you ... And we'll love and we'll laugh ... In the time that we had ... 'Til the season comes 'round again.
Merry Christmas!
