OzarkHillbilly talked about beautiful blown glass ornaments in a thread yesterday – the ornaments at the link were so lovely!
Here’s one of my favorites of all my glass ornaments.
In case there is any interest in seeing a tree decorated almost entirely with blown glass ornaments, here is my tree in 2020.
If you watched both videos, that would be one complete spin around the tree.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!
Open thread!

Only 37 minutes until the local radio is Christmas-free until next year!

That is a cute photo of Willow! I guess Joe decided not to take a chance on another dog at the White House, after rehoming both Major and Commander.
Beautiful Christmas trees, WaterGirl.

@eclare: Biden re-homed Major and Commander? I thought they were being taken care of in his home in Delaware. Or is that what you mean by rehoming?
jackmac
Beautiful trees and ornaments!

@WaterGirl:
In the articles that I read before I commented, none stated whether the rehoming was temporary or permanent. I have to think at least one would be permanent because I don’t think you’d want these two dogs living together.
Oh, I see your question. Major is with family friends, so not at the Biden house. I didn’t see info on where Commander is.

Four hour Zoom! Good times, great people.

Now busy making potato pancakes as the veggie of choice for the late holiday din-din.

Merry Christmas? I’m still fully consumed with the airing of grievances. Even with all the windows open it’s taking longer than expected.

@eclare:
I still say the dogs knew too much.

@Baud:
They were good judges of character.

@Baud:
True!

@NotMax:
And what’s the main course?

@mrmoshpotato
Thick cut NY strip steak smothered in sauteed mushrooms.
mrmoshpotato
@NotMax: Nice! Just mushrooms? No onions? (Thinking about smothered pork chops which usually have an onion-mushroom gravy. Not that a NY strip should have gravy on it.)
NotMax
@mrmoshpotato
Plenty of onion in the potato pancakes!

The late Christmas hours after social exhaustion has set in is the perfect time for Robert Earl Keen’s Christmas classic “Merry Christmas from the Family”

@Kelly:
That is a classic.

Thing I learned recently.
Early in the 20th century there was a luxury car company which built a model marketed under the S&M badge.

@NotMax: I see.

What a lovely tree, WaterGirl! Those glass ornaments are so rich and dimensional. Thank you for sharing!
