    Oh, phew! So we still have some Christmas dinner then? That's a relief. I'd hate to think there would be nothing left by the time everybody wakes up. They might suspect we'd eaten it all.

    Speaking of which, Blueberry stuffed french toast and coffee, anyone?

    LH, I'll have some french toast and coffee! I just saw Orc's stocking. It looked like he wished for a junkyard! A possible Mrs. Orc?? His industrial strength stocking is definitely filled!

    A pair of orcs? Perish the thought!

    I would LOVE some Blueberry stuffed french toast and coffee. What a fabulous breakfast.

    I have had some losses this year (my mom and Trevor) but am very thankful for all that remains steadfast in my life - my family, health, pets, a job that I enjoy and a warm cozy bed to curl up in at night. I watched a show on the homeless the other night and it was heartbreaking. We do have so much to be thankful for if we only just look around. Richard (((hugs))) to you again my friend. I'll take a nice mug of coffee - can't quite appreciate the thought of a spiked nog this early in the morning.

    KK, I think Orc hates the idea of putting on a maid's uniform!

    So many things for which to be thankful but a few are that my son is home for Christmas and he's healthy and happy. My cat Pidgelet is doing great and you'd never know she has a life threatening illness at the ripe old age of 18 1/2. I had friends in for dinner last night and we laughed until we cried. I'm warm, I'm fed, I have a roof over my head. Yes, there are those who have much more materially than I but there are those who had no place to lay their head last night, so thankful? Indeed. I have been blessed.

    One last thing: I want all my PT family to know just important you all have become to me. If ever I'm feeling lonely, which happens frequently nowadays, I need only to log on to PT and magic happens. You're always there, ready and willing to give comfort and support. You have no idea what it means to me. Thank you. And I'm always happy to reciprocate, so those of you who need a hug, consider yourself hugged!

    I'll have that cup of hot chocolate now. Don't forget the marshmallow, please.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    An Orc!

    An Orc is one of the minions of the evil Sauron in the Lord of the Rings books.

    We adopted him as a mascot, he was one of Mario's friends and cohorts!

    Mario's cohorts?

    More like he was Mario's favorite torture subject. We had to get batteries for the remote on a frequent basis while Mario was running around the bar.

    His main jobs are stacking firewood, getting firewood, and moving around the seement mixer when we take the bar mobile!

    No baby orcs, please. Those collars are EXPENSIVE!!!!

    That explains it. Believe it or not, I've not read Lord of the Rings. Just not into it. Now I'm probably going to be dubbed "Lady of the Clueless" but who's Mario?

    Mario was Trayi52's monkey, who also took up residence in our virtual bar.
