Tis the week before Christmas, and we’re all in a fright. Meal prepping like crazy for that one special night. A holiday meal plan is just what we need, we’ll all work together and I’ll take the lead. Meals for every day and snacks aplenty, desserts as well – oh my, someone bring me a Venti! But not to fret, we’re all in good spirits, and this year in Moncton we’ll have a very Merry Christmas!
I’m not quite as eloquent with words as I used to be, but I’ve still got a bit of poetry up my sleeve! 😉
We are so excited to be hosting an early Christmas celebration here in Moncton on December 20th. My dad, my step-mom, my step-siblings and their significant others, as well as my little step-niece are all coming up to see us! I think the last time they were up was 4 or 5 years ago already – time sure flies! Max, Remi and I usually drive down to Sydney after Christmas (in January), what with our usual work schedules not allowing us to go any earlier. But I’m so happy everyone will be coming up before Christmas because it just somehow stops feeling quite as festive once December is over.
But enough of that, let’s get to our holiday meal plan!
