It's my first Christmas in the US for 10 years. I'm still hoping for snow here in Southern New Mexico, but unless there's a Christmas miracle, it looks like a brown Xmas for the Dag family.

I'm doing most of my Christmas shopping at local thrift store (op shop for you Aussie/Anglos) - I picked up this gem of a jacket for a song. Looking forward to wearing this back home in the January heat.

Anyway- best holiday wishes to the Sift community - I hoist my flagon of nog to you all.
