It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Well, sort of.  Now that Rememberance Day is past (Veterans' Day for you Americans) it's all-out Christmas until The Big Day.  House rules say I'm not allowed to start decorating until 1 December (on which day everything but the tree will go up), but there's nothing said about starting my Christmas baking!  I plan to load up the freezer with as much as I can.  I'm also working on the menu for Christmas eve, as I am playing hostess for the first time.  Of course, I'm also listening to Christmas music, which drives the Man crazy.
