Merry Christmas, all! Here’s our annual photo on the stairs of Grace Church:
One of my favorite hymns is “In the Bleak Midwinter.”
Pretty church:
Our cocktail this year was a Old Fashioned, doctored up by cocktail guru Dave Arnold: The simple syrup was made with coriander and red pepper flakes. Cheers!
Cocktail hour:
Christmas table:
We made Joan Nathan’s brisket. Turned out the best I think it ever has!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
