A fond Christmas memory

So many Christmas of the past were with my friend which I have known for 30 years! WOW! We practically lived at each others houses when we were in elementary school together.

Christmas was always so much fun anyway, but at their house it was a BLAST! Her dad would cook and mom would bake and they acted like this was the last day of our lives. We really lived it up!

One Christmas, when I was in my 20's, I was over for the Christmas dinner and they served their traditional crab legs. I had never had them before. All 5 of them just started cracking, dipping and eating..... i couldn't even figure out how to crack the dumb things! My friend's mom, made eye contact and without saying a word just showed me how to do it! It was so sweet of her not to point out what a dork I was!

Speaking of memories, my friend Steph, found me through my blog! What a surprise! She said was reading this blog, and that one and then another and another. As she was reading some comments on one she recognized my name! How exciting! I am so glad to be able to catch up with her. We haven't seen or talked to each other in 8 or 9 years. We went to school together, worked a daycare together and also lived together for awhile!
