The feast!
Hot chocolate and paneton
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...
Merry Christmas!
Last night we celebrated Peruvian style, arriving at the home of Jimmy and Sandra at 11PM to eat and exchange gifts. The dinner consisted of roasted chicken with yellow potatoes and sweet potatoes, a salad of vegetables, apple sauce, and rice. After dinner and gifts, we had the traditional paneton with hot chocolate. Jimmy used a “secret” family recipe which calls for butter and anise liquor in addition to the chocolate and milk. Que ricco! (How delicious!)
Today we will celebrate a traditional American Christmas with all at Pat’s Place. When we got home at 2:30 this morning, we Heather, Blanca and I stuffed stockings and put the presents under the tree. The residents used actual socks, some cleaner than others…
To all of you, a very merry Christmas! I hope you are warm and safe with the ones you love.

Merry Christmas from Boulder.
We are having a snowstorm here. We decided to stay put and not go to Ron's because the roads are nasty. But it sure is pretty out!
Thanks for the post and the ongoing Spanish lessons. Feliz Navidad
Love, A.D. and Paul
