Working our way up to the main event

Things progressed towards the 25th.

One day I took lunch over to Mimi's for an excuse to use her holiday plates.

She also had a rack of Charles's ties and I picked out some to share.

Another day I was delighted to attend a Cookie Party at Johnson's Meeting House - oh just look at that yummy festive table!-

hosted by the fabulous Dharma and her people.

And then there was the big deal day...

when the kitchen was full of power tools and a careful craftsman

and the hole that disgraced the cabinets for over a year was replaced with these marvelous drawers!

Oh yes, we're getting closer and closer.
