The Holiday Season, depending on your Faith.
Greetings from cold San Diego, with frost on the ground. Who knows we may have a white Xmas morning next week.
Happy Hannakuh, to my Jewish friends. Blessings to my other faith friends.
Christmas has a weird feeling this year. Interesting, contact by some has been so few we feel like they are slipping away and we are miss them. Distance makes a difference, but my parents never let distance be a major problem we had to keep in touch with our elders. Dad and Mom mandated it from when small. When distance is felt yet the people are close it is hard. When Distance applies but can't be helped it does not seem to bother as bad.
We gathered with family that lived near us always. Some times just my Aunt and Uncle and their boys until some of Mom's family migrated to California also. Then we had to make sure we did not leave out our Aunts and Uncles, no matter where they lived. Wyoming, Iowa, Colorado, Oregon, New Mexico, Nebraska.
As the families grew the states of Washington, Montana, Nevada, Arizona and Oklahoma was added.
Then came Kansas and Pennsylvania and Ohio and Minnesota, South Dakota, not to leave out Idaho and AK and HI.
When Korea happened in War, we had cousins all over the globe. Just like when we had WW2 and I was to small to remember more than the planes flying over and the coming and going of Uncles and uniforms and the black outs and the Coast Watch. We did get to have my Aunts stay with us at times due to husbands deployments or hospitalizations during the War and afterwards for recovery.
I remember toward the end of the 1940's I think maybe 46 or 47, my sister and I both got dolls. My Aunt made the doll clothes, Thank You Aunt Etta. A dear friend helped with a doll bed, home made.
I remember the stocking had an orange and a walnut and a peppermint stick candy cane, & a pair of socks and ribbons for our hair. There may have been ribbon candy in the stocking also.
We had homemade fudge and divinity for candy and rolled and designed cookies. Fruit cake and
mince meat pie (the real kind) made with meat and raisins and nuts and seasonings. When older I helped can the Mincemeat in the early fall for Xmas use. We also had Brownies and Blondies, a bar cookie with out Chocolate.
We also invited neighbors whom were elderly and alone or took food to them.
This topic came up when I asked a grandchild if they knew the significance of the orange and walnut in the stocking. For many when we were very young it was almost all the child received with a Candy Cane.
Remember during the War there was rationing, of many food products and other goods.
What do you remember of your early Christmas's?

Documenting Thanksgiving 2015
The day started early and ended late. In a nut shell it was a great day shared by many.
But that does not document the day.
Attendees: Candy Pentico Murillo, Bob Jeffers, Joe Murillo, Wyatt Murillo and Sara., Stephan Murillo, Nicole and Clementine Murillo, Billi Jo Pentico and Zack Allen, Roberta Jones Wright Davis ( sis) and husband Alan Davis. Of course there was my husband Fred and self.
Alan' had family from Heather's side at their home.
Ed had Peggy's families at their home.
Don and Liz went from Fowlerville, Mi. to Monee, Ill to share with her brother's family.
We had: Turkey and Ham, some can not have turkey, we had white and sweet potatoes, green beans and asparagus, cranberries jellied and whole, dinner rolls, Hawaiian and regular potato rolls. Sparkling Ciders and coffee and tea, and some beer and some wine.
BJ went to Kaiser Zion and took Mary a plate of ham and special made mashed potatoes and asparagus for her. Not forgetting her cranberries.
Every one was to full for desert but some was had later in the evening that did not have to wander to another home. Nicole's pumpkin pie went so fast I am glad I at least had a taste,
The topper was learning that Fred's sister would be returning from the hospital with a brace and back to us in rare form. She came home Friday afternoon.
My bronchitis was last had in February, must be the erractic weather and setting under the AC for days at Zion.
Ed and Peggy came to visit Friday late, as did Bertie and Alan return from visiting Grandkids in Oceanside and Camp Pendleton. The left overs are slowly disappearing.
Bertie has reached home safely in AZ. Hope Don and family done same in MI.
Dale called this morning. Only one sibling I did not hear from. May God Bless them All.

You may want to.......Document your Thanksgiving........
You may want to document your Thanksgiving. No idea who will or won't be with us in the next year.
It is the season to think of others, yes it is. So will you remember each guest with a passing comment of will you take some pictures or maybe write a poem?
Maybe you will write a synopsis of your day or the week leading up to Thanksgiving. It surely will bring many thoughts to the forefront.
How did you decide what vegetable to have, what type of dinner roll? Do you do Ham and Turkey for those not able to eat turkey? Or do you do a roast or goose?
You see there were many choices you made whether it was consciously or not. Do you do mashed potatoes, scalloped potatoes, yams or sweet potatoes?
In doing all this are you leaving a trail so that your grandchildren can go back and remember what they were not sure of what they did?
Home made Cranberry sauce or store bought with or with out whole cranberries. Or did you plan a Cranberry salad made as a jello dish?
Remember in the spring we discussed using a plain table cloth and have all the guests sign it in memory of the year and it gets past down to a younger family member for future memories?
So many ideas so few time. I hope you at least do some of this for your future generations.
