We thought our Christmas dinner with my wife's parents might get scuttled, and were trying to figure out what to do instead.

I told my wife "Hey, it's Christmas, and we're Jewish*, so let's cook some Chinese food!"

But it turns out our plans are on, so that's off the menu.

Damn. I was hoping to get some use from the Sichuan and Hunan cookbooks I've bought.

-* Sorta. 23andme says I'm >20% Ashkenazi Jewish and my wife is ~10% -- mine is entirely my maternal grandmother so by Jewish custom that actually "makes" me Jewish, although was not raised as such and [obviously] not practicing.
23 and me?

A little bit of physics and a lot of luck. May you all be as lucky in 2021!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.  The only day my husband and son do not have to work, so will be the four of us for dinner (me, hubby, son, and my sister).  Glazed ham, potatoes, gravy, deviled eggs, veggies (haven't decided on what ones yet) and dinner rolls.  Very simple dinner and then on to playing Quiddler, Yahtzee, or Zilch.  No one will play Trivial Pursuit with me (my son says I am a font of useless info, lol), so it's usually card games.  Maybe Monopoly if I can find the board.  Then I will watch over the next few days:  Star Trek Discovery, Stephen King's The Stand, and a new show on Netflix:  Bridgerton which is a series based on books by Julia Quinn - my guilty pleasure romances, ha ha.  

Everyone stay safe and warm - we have blowing snow and cold right now so I am going to bundle up and binge watch old episodes of Star Trek Enterprise or Longmire.

Yeah, 55.5% "Eastern European" with likely matches Poland and the Ukraine, possible match of Lithuania. Another 22.5% Ashkenazi. And 15.6% German. That's 93.6% of me.

I guess I'm not very diverse.

I often feel "down" this time of year, probably some because of short daylight hours.  I also dislike the "pressure" of buying gifts for folks and appearing to be delighted with gifts I receive.  I guess the logical part of my brain doesn't really work with the concept very well.  I understand it better with young kids.  Now I just send checks, go buy what you want. 

My step son offered me a 2.5 hour Porsche drive on a racetrack down near the airport, which was pretty thoughtful of him really.  He's doing it himself.  I'm going to watch.

I don't fit very well in a Porsche.  He said he has a GT3.

I don't suppose they'd let me drive a "Vetter around their dinky track.
