It is not 7am as yet, but the kitchen is already busy, with noise and aroma.
Our guests and my kids are preparing breakfast. They are baking the store bought croissants; frying the bacon; brewing coffee; making orange juice; beating eggs and opening/closing the cabinet's doors asking each others where is this, where is that. It is the first time for our guests, two college students from Italy, in our kitchen; and my kids only come here once or twice a year for a short stay.
I ask them to simmer some cinnamon bark and whole cloves for the inviting aroma of the season. This morning the air turns a bit colder; hopefully we will have snow tonight.
For six of us, we have six boxes of oranges delivered from Texas; and 4 boxes of produce from California. We must leave here by Tuesday the latest. Orange is the theme for this Chirstmas.

First time in many many years if it doesn't snow tonight...
