Well, I was curious about the duck on the balcony - is Bjarne keeping it on the balcony because it's still alive and quacking?? Or is the balcony the coldest place to store a duck ready for the oven??
And my lace content: I'm struggling to finish pricking a wide floral Bucks handkerchief edging - I'm coming down the fourth side now. It'll be a relief to start working it, after all this pricking! Happy Christmas to all.

We in the US have a traditional eggnog which is essentially eggs, cream, sugar, and spirits which include bourbon, and/or rum and/or brandy... depending on what part of the country you're from. I'd love to know what Gl�gg is - and will be happy to share a traditional eggnog recipe (Virginia style) if anyone is interested. (I expect it's best to write me privately for that, since it really isn't lace-related!) I have the Christmas Turkey in the fridge, waiting to be cooked for the feast tomorrow night with extended family. I hope everyone is able to enjoy the Holiday is the manner which most pleases you!! And to slip in the lace content... I've rounded the fourth corner on my Binche magnum opus and have arrived at the point where I started in June!! I am now working about three inches beyond the rocky beginning, to the point where I will join. About a half-inch to go!! I've started the happy process of drooling over patterns again, trying to decide "what's next". I'd really love to work Catherine Belleville's Olive Branches, but wonder if I shouldn't stick to my study guide... sigh. So much lace, so little time. Love and Peace to Everyone!!
