This will probably be my first Christmas without being with family.

I have an older sister who lives in Arizona, my parents are both looking from above, a close cousin who always visits from Ft. Myers won't be doing so this year.

I've been invited to a virtual dinner by friends but to be truthful, I actually need to eat something so a small, cubed, young leg of lamb is in day 2 of being marinated and will be cooked on Christmas Day along with some rice and green beans. Simple and probably fitting for the year 2020.

I will be around for any hockey news but I doubt we will see any major news until after Santa kicks his feet up on the 26th.

Starting at 6:00pm today, the annual KK songs of the season will start and be posted 1 1/2-2 hours apart and run through Christmas morning.

Have a safe and peaceful Christmas and Happy Holidays too.
