Twas the last Sunday before Christmas, when all through the
house, not a creature was stirring, not even the turkey in the freezer. The
stockings were hung by the chimney with care, looking across at an oven that is
out of commission. Oh, the problems take concern us in the developed world!
2013 has indeed been a kind year to us Bickfords, giving us
many blessings through new friends and reconnecting with old ones. Although the
winter weather has returned with a vengeance, 2014 is filled with promises of
an even better tomorrow and hopefully some more interesting themes to share
with you all.
I last left off telling my tales of my Catalan adventure, I
will wish you all a “bon nadal i feliç
any nou” to all of you. May 2014 be an opportunity to realize all your
dreams!
