No, I did not loose my inspiration lately.
The period before Christmas has just been very hectic, working long and late hours and there was very little time left for writing.
To be honest I kinda feel like a souffle that came down to earth, my apology for spotty blogging.
I want to wish everyone a Joyeux Noel, Happy Hanukah or Happy Kwanzaa.
If you are not celebrating any of these holidays, enjoy the day off.
I wish I had the energy to bake wonderful pastries as our friend Bea of La Tartine Goumande did in Joyeux Noel.

Penelope Trunk throws a little cold water on the holiday cheer with My annual rant about Christmas at work where she object to religious holidays being celebrated on the job.
I am not sure that religious considerations are first and foremost on most people's mind on December 25th. Shopping and gift giving and getting lead the pack I think.
In any case happy holiday, happy slow day.
Do not drink (or eat) too much and drive safely.
