Merry Christmas Eve!

My mom sent me this photo last night of her festively decorated tamarind tree.

I think it looks as good as any spruce, don't you?

I can't believe how big this tree has gotten since we planted it. This is how it used to look:

Today Mrs. Survival Gardener will be making some eggnog from scratch. I'm torn between adding Sailor Jerry's spiced rum or Knob Creek bourbon to the mix. #FirstWorldProblems.

Outside the weather is balmy and overcast... all the windows and doors are open and the Florida breeze is playing with the curtains.

Give me a green Christmas any day over the cold and ice of the north. I was born a Floridian and will always be one, no matter what those Yankee stooges in New York think should be a "proper" Christmas.

Have a wonderful day, hopefully with your family.
