Catalan Christmas Wishes, By Way of Sicily
As a holiday card, I had this odd idea of setting the camera on the tripod and hefting the lit Christmas tree so all you’d see would be my arms and jeans, with Guido’s painting in the background. Luckily, I remembered the Catalan Christmas connection with La Boqueria Market, which regularly graces the front page of many newspapers here on the 25th.
It also makes a much nicer photo.
Time for a Turkey.
(No, not me, the one in the oven.)
Ho, Ho!
