‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all though the house,
this creature was scurrying, just like a mouse.
The stockings were hung on the mantel with care,
but nothing had filled them… alas, don’t despair!
Pa-Pa in his PJ’s and puppy in his lap,
We’re just getting started – to fill and to wrap.
The kiddos are grown now, with babes of their own,
So there’s not as much pressure to get it all done.
They’re coming for brunch, after their own family time,
And us? Well, we’re ready… with a wink and a rhyme.
It’s Christmas Day, after all… the best time of year,
Merry Christmas to all, and be of good cheer!
And, speaking of brunch, I want to share my Christmas Breakfast casserole with you! This recipe can be doubled, as I’m doing this year! We love to serve this along with fruit and cinnamon and orange rolls. Yummmm!!
- 4-6 slices bread
