Thanks Peanut! im not sure how much more multi cultural festivities I can handle though. Hannukah, Rammadan, Quanza,Christmas, The Winter Solstice( Chumash indian, Buddhist,Neo Pagan and Hindu observances) can overload even my multicultural savvy. I think ill slip out to the desert for a holiday meal of a mainstay bar,trailmix and jerky washed down with esbit stove heated tea, consumed under the watchfull eye of circling vultures.
