So much to do

It's Veteran's Day and the hordes are descending on the pumpkinknitter's household. Tomorrow is the baby's christening, and today's holiday will be spent cooking for the celebration to follow the ceremony. We are looking forward to a great day. The weather promises to be at its southern Arizona best, clear, sunny, and in the 70's. (There are definite advantages to Arizona.) As if that weren't enough, today is also Nana's birthday. Nana is one of the little pumpkin's great-grandmothers, and the christening is also an occasion for the whole family to be gathered on her birthday as well.

Today we think of all those serving in our country's Armed Forces. The old man and I were both once among those ranks ourselves.

Posting will have to wait until next week to resume. Pumpkinknitter will be chained (quite willingly) to the kitchen, cooking for the ravenous crowds.
