and so it goes

we actually ended up spending christmas for a whole week and our christmas tree is still up. We had a lovely christmas tree this year.Cinderella got some decorations from Spain and A had picked up a box in Singapore. BOJ (Bundle of joy, our 5 year old) and I , also got some beautiful ones in Pune.Even if 70% of the decorations survive this year..we won't need to get any next year.The red fairy lights looked really pretty on the tree in the evenings.We also had a grand christmas lunch for free!!, at a trendy restaurant (actually lounge cum grille) in town. It had wonderful food but man!, one really had to hunt for the food at the buffet.Every time one went up for seconds the food would have run out. We complained to the owner, embarrassed,she comped the bill.
