Sunday 12/23/07 -- Deva, Asha, and Jaishree arrived over the weekend, one at a time, as we prepared for Christmas. By Sunday 12/23 at 3 o’clock, the tree was decorated, the house was clean, and a feast was prepared. Our Neighbors George and Julie came by for a little while, followed by our friends the Lovells. We nibbled all day on cheese, crackers, cookies, finger sandwiches, mango-crab in wantons, and Pomegranate martinis. We watched some football, listened to Christmas music, built a fire in the fireplace, and played with the kids. In the evening, we watched the Redskins defeat the Vikings in high definition. All was right with the world.
