Howdy folks, from St. Thomas and Tortola...and belated holiday wishes for health and happiness to all of you!
There's no room at our "inn" for Christmas trees, but we did have some decorations. Clutter isn't our thing... Keep it simple and romantic, I say. A nice, quiet evening with a wonderful dinner shared with your loved one. Of course, there's a lot of phone calls to relatives and friends. Yes, we know...you all miss us and wish we could be there with you...and we would've liked to be with you also...down here.
We know what December is like in the US north of Florida. Don't think we aren't glad to be where it's warm and dry.

We had a very Merry New Year celebration, complete with all of the trimmings, friends, libations (of course) and snow. Yes, snow! Lori brought it all of the way down from Minneapolis in a can. What a gal! She had to figure out some real strategies and explanations getting it through the TSA at the various airports. Is it a gel or liquid?
Here's the recipe for making a Caribbean snowman:
 |
| Gather your crew... |
 |
| Select a couple of cheerleaders... |
 |
| Make snow... |
 |
| Roll the snow into balls... |
 |
| Set it up with traditional eyes and party horn...did I say party? |
 |
| Ken wants to tell everyone happy new year! |
 |
| Lori and Karen want to tell you the same... |
 |
Toddy, calling Sue in the UK...collect...to tell her
Happy New Year! |
 |
The happy couple!
(notice how well the tans show when wearing white)
Cheers to all of you for a great 2012! |
