Light & Cookie Run

Tuesday night I jogged with Yo-go for 40 minutes past delightfully lighted-up houses on Crescent Road, overlooking the river and downtown. We met up with the Pink Lady and Coach, and brought goodies over to Gord’s house for a Christmas visit.

I had hot apple cider, some cheeses, walnuts, little ham-pickle rolls, salsa dip in mini pitas, and numerous homemade sweets. Then after all that I had a yummy chai tea with lots of foamy milk on top.

Someone had brought fresh gooseberries dipped in Callebaut white chocolate. The berries still had their leaves on, and they looked SO elegant! I’m going to have to try making those some time. The one I had was delicious.

40 easy minutes was not a long enough run to justify all those calories, but it sure was nice to kick back with the running group and have some good conversations.

I was supposed to run today, but kinda got caught up in Christmas preparations again. Nothing stressful, just tying up a few loose ends, but they took time.

I made Koloch today – Ukrainian Christmas bread. I’ll tell you more about that tomorrow, when I’ve got the pictures handy.

    Gooseberries? I don’t think I’ve ever seen gooseberries. Are they like blue berries?

    Merry Christmas!
