Guests & Fish...

In a few minutes we will be on our way to the Austin airport to pick up Ewa, my mother-in-law. She'll be staying with us for 3 weeks over the holidays. I'm sure the next few weeks will entail lots of shopping and wine drinking and hopefully peace and harmony for the holiday season.

She's going to cook us a traditional Polish meal Christmas eve, which will include fish (no meat!), wild mushroom soup, fruit compote, and minced meat pies. (Although I think that last one's more a nod to the English tradition.)

I'm sure her bags will also be filled to the brim with English sweeties. So much for healthy eating over the holidays. Oh well. More motivation to train for the upcoming 10K.

8 more days 'til Christmas! Are you done with your shopping yet?
