Holidailies 16

Have I mentioned I like birds? Well, I do.

There are lots of preparations to make here, and time is getting short. Tonight I need to bake some cookies and treats that I've already mixed up the dough for. It shouldn't take too long, but of course things often take longer than they should.

Tonight for dinner I made potato and broccoli soup, and cornbread. The leftover cornbread will make our dressing for Christmas day, because I am cooking a turkey dinner on Saturday.

Today when I got home there were three packages waiting. One was a box from Pennsylvania, which was so nicely decorated that I put it directly under the tree without even opening it. One was a gift I ordered for a holiday that happens in early May. And one was a CD sent by the Human Rights Campaign, an organization that I have never contributed to, but one that I would certainly not be averse to supporting. However, the packaging made me think the CD was a thank you gift for a contribution. All I can assume is that a contribution was made to the HRC in my name, but there was no explanation on the packing slip. It's a total mystery. Please do write me if you can shed any light on this.

And with that, I leave you. Here's one more bird for the road.
