On the day of a small Christmas gathering at our place, I happened to notice a sale on trees in the neighborhod, and decided we might as well go all the way. This did not leave a lot of time to work on the decorations... |

On the day of Christmas itself, our first stop was the Zombie Film Festival at the Pirate Cat Cafe, where I discovered that Raven had never seen The Night of the Living Dead. I went for an Eggnog Laté and was a bit happier than Raven who couldn't resist the idea of a Bacon Maple Laté. |

Then it was off to the main event, a visit to the beach. In this case, Mile Rock Beach, up in the Lands End area, way down below the Legion of Honor. |

The other main event, roast crab at a Vietnamese place far out on Clement Street. |

Raven was obsessed with this crazed asian desert place we spotted, and so we had to force ourselves (the waffles and chocolate sauce was okay, the strawberry-rose ice cream baked into a marshmellow coating was... odd). |

And then it was back home, where our loaner cat, Dali keeps us company. |
