Day:  8-degrees  |  Night:  5-degrees
Baby, it's cold outside!  BRRRRRR!  Just under two inches of the white stuff but the wind and the cold are brutal.  The sun is just starting to peak out and it is, unmistakably, beautiful.  It is also very dangerous so please be careful if you have to go outside today.

It's been busy in the Carondelet Kitchen these past few days.  Not much going on in the Garden, to say the very least.  Dr. Beth always makes her family's French Meat Pies for Christmas.  She has perfected the recipes (plural, because there were many) she has been handed down over the years.  That will be made finished this afternoon for this evening's meal.  Cooking and baking.  Jigsaw puzzles and crosswords.  Books to be read.  It's been a relatively quiet week around here which is lovely.  I hope you get the opportunity to relax a little bit as the holidays are approaching.  Take a little time for yourself.  One more cup of coffee sounds pretty good on a day like today!

Needless to say, it's cold outside.  A mix of clouds and sunshine is expected with gusty winds.  Winds are out of the WNW at 20 to 30 MPH.  Winds could gust over 40 MPH.  Please take it easy if you are out and about.  This is dangerous stuff!  I wish you peace, hope and love during these last few days of Advent, 2022.  That's all the news from the Carondelet Garden.
