Christmas Evening

[ailbhe]

This is where I remember all the things I forgot before.

We spoke to our sisters in Ireland, and Rob spoke to his family in Sweden, and Janice spoke to her parents who weren't in Canada.

Janice liked our trifle; apparently she usually doesn't like trifle, because of not liking cream, but the rest of ours was so good that it made up for that. Lots of people who don't like trifle like our trifle. It has no jelly in it (that's Jello, as distinct from Jam, for you North Americans!) and not too much sherry.

We liked Janice's Quebecois pies. One of them is pure sugar.

The cat got used to his new collar eventually.

We watched DVDs. Shrek, 10 Things I Hate About You (my goodness, a teenage romantic comedy that I love!), Save the Last Dance (pretty good, but I prefer Strictly Ballroom), Galaxy Quest, um, And Lots, Lots More. I may review some of them at some stage.

We didn't stay up very late. We were all exhausted from staying up until 2 am having that Cultural Experience.
