This morning started with a skiff of frozen slush…then it started raining…and finally, the rain changed to snow.

Headed for a White Christmas!

Last night (Tuesday night), I shaped dough for morning bagels…

Yum-a-dum-dum! Fresh baked bagels with lox, goat cheese, capers and onions.

The snow kept falling and Auggie went as far as the end of the sidewalk “moat” before turning around…

Now and again the last week, I’ve had a Christmas “sweet” recipe on the counter, but my sweet tooth lay dormant and what really sounded good was citrus.

Cara cara oranges have been available and inspired by a Smitten Kitchen recipe ( Endive with oranges and almonds ), I’ve been making a romaine/orange/almond salad dressed with a gorgonzola vinaigrette.

Pretty AND good!

Headed for a White Christmas: Christmas Eve Day at noon.
